We have it on our schedule in 2024 to fix and paint the exterior of the house. You may see some spots that need some scraping and painting, however this will not detract from your stay.

Beautiful home in an easily accessible location. Everything was clean and easy to find. The house is spacious and every guest could claim their own little area. Jenna was very responsive and super helpful with help and questions.

This is a really unique property, filled with the history of Oswego (and a ton of books and games!). So close to great restaurants, very walkable. Jenna is one of the best hosts we've ever had! A great space for family fun!

We stayed at Jenna's house as an extended family and the two separate apartments suited us very well. Everything was very clean, the beds were comfortable, the house was spacious and had a very nice atmosphere and most of all, Jenna was incredibly accommodating to our needs and was responsive and prompt with any questions we had. Thank you Jenna for a wonderful stay at your home!
