Walk to Downtown CF!

PjRating, 5 stars5 days ago

The Walnut house does not disappoint . I've stayed here several times. After a long journey, it's great walking into a clean, beautiful cozy home. Sitting in the backyard was so peaceful, going downtown is "a must do". The beds are comfy, the kitchen spotless and it had everything we needed. The home is so nicely decorated, with plenty of space for our little gatherings. Susan is amazing to work with, always gets back to me right away, she made a special accommodation for me! These are just a few of many reasons why I keep booking this sweet gem, The Walnut House!

Cozy downtown studio!

JillRating, 5 stars1 week ago

What a wonderful place to stay in downtown Waverly Tim was the best host he gave me upfront information that was very helpful and checking in into his studio apartment. During the day, he stayed in communication with us to make sure everything was perfect and then he let us know what was expected of us before we left so it may check out super easy. We would definitely recommend his space and renting from him.
