I stay in a lot of airbnbs every year and I’d have to rank this as one of the best. Everything is clean, modern, and updated. Furniture is high quality. The beds are amazing. The neighborhood is also quiet and peaceful. I wish I lived at this Airbnb, my entire crew and myself loved it.

Warren Cultural Center

CherylRating, 5 stars5 months ago

If you love a space that looks and feels vintage, while offering modern amenities, you will love this space! It is cozy, spacious, and charming, and having two bathrooms is a plus. The listing is up-front that the unit is not handicap accessible and involves a lot of stairs. It does. But, if you're able carry your stuff up some stairs, I think you'll really enjoy the space. Within one block, there is a showroom of vintage cars and within two blocks, a bowling ally and a movie theater. The town has several dining options Monday-Saturday, and some on Sunday. There are two small lakes that offer fishing, picnic areas, and walking trails just outside of town. Enjoy!

Friendly Quarters

ShayRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We rented this air bnb because we had a large family gathering at our home and we were out of space for people to sleep. I was grateful the air bnb in town was available! Our family members had nothing but good things to say about it. They thought it was a charming place full of character; clean; and the beds were comfortable. Thank you Amanda for your good communication and having the place spotless and ready for our family! Highly recommend!

Mulberry Cottage Farm-Stay

KristinRating, 5 stars5 days ago

Our stay in this little slice of heaven was absolutely perfect. The accommodations were wonderful. The hosts were so friendly. Sparkled and Festus (the farm dogs) were just a joy to have around on the front porch. We had the best time fishing in the farm ponds, and caught a lot of fish! Mary Lynne was so kind and accommodating. She helped me make our check in just a little extra special with birthday balloons and a banner. There were farm fresh eggs and the most delicious homemade sourdough and mulberry jam, in the kitchenette. It was the perfect place to unplug and get away for the weekend.
