Cozy, unique, walkable
Cozy, 3-story, pet-friendly, and clean. Walkable to town and quiet area on tidal pond. Great furnishings and amenities as described. Ample parking for two. Steps to second and third floors are steep and narrow as expected for a home this age.

Girl’s Weekend
We stayed here for our annual girl’s weekend getaway. The house is absolutely adorable and there was plenty of room for the five of us. Everything we could have possibly needed was present and the short walk into downtown Portsmouth was super quick! The few times we needed to communicate with the owner she responded quickly and was able to resolve our questions. We had a great weekend!

Wonderful get-away weekend
Michelle's property was absolutely perfect for our family and weekend plans. It was walking distance to so many amazing restaurants and shops. The house itself was filled with sunlight and warmth. The furniture was extremely comfortable as well. Michelle was quick to respond to any inquiry we made, and she made some nice recommendations of places to go. Thank you, Michelle.

We had a great weekend in Portsmouth. The property is in a great location- short walk to downtown Portsmouth, yet tucked away on a quiet side street. The property listing was accurate and we enjoyed the character of the old house.

A Gem in Portsmouth
We enjoyed our stay in this historic 1800s home. It is situated in a small neighborhood within walking distance to great shopping and excellent restaurants. Our dogs loved it, and our Shih Tzu teeny made many new friends that walked daily down to the dog park. The only thing we would caution you is that the parking is very expensive and if you don’t mind the walk you will save yourself a lot of money.

We were in Portsmouth for my son’s wedding and this was a wonderful place to stay! There was plenty of room for everyone, it was clean, had an abundance of good quality, thick towels, great location very close to downtown, and we enjoyed the nice patio in back of house.

What a great house!
The 4 of us (2 older couples) love staying here—within walking distance to downtown, close to Maine and there are lobsters and clams! What a great vacation (although both our families were impacted by Hurricane Helene in Florida, so we were stressed). Thank you for hosting us—we hope to return next year!

We stayed at this property for a wedding weekend and it was perfect. Plenty of parking, lots of space, a well-equipped kitchen and super comfy beds. My two teenagers had their own spaces and we were a five minute drive to downtown Portsmouth. Communication with the host was perfect. I highly recommend this property. Thank you.

A wonderful stay in Portsmouth!
We had such a great stay at Michelle’s property. We had 4 adults and 2 young children and had plenty of space with 2 1/2 bathrooms, large living room, and multiple outdoor spaces. The home was very clean and had all the amenities we needed and more. Quiet street/neighborhood right by a tidal river, and a less than 10-minute walk to downtown Portsmouth that has wonderful stores, bars and restaurants. We also enjoyed a fun harbor cruise that was just a 15-minute walk from the house. A local neighbor recommended New Castle beach which was less than a 15-minute drive, and it was perfect for the kids with no crowds, a playground, tide pools and bathroom. We went there every day! Michelle was incredibly responsive and made sure our stay was was perfect. As noted in other reviews, the steps to upstairs floors are steep, but our nearly 3- and 5-year olds managed just fine. We hope to come back!

Great Property, Management, and Location
Our stay was everything we expected and more. The property is a nicely updated and well maintained older home with exceptional character. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful kitchen, back patio, and front porch. The grill is a nice feature, and the kitchen is very well appointed with everything you will need if you decide to cook and eat in. This great Portsmouth house has everything needed for a wonderful stay that is within walking distance of all the Downtown Portsmouth area has to offer. The manager is available and responds quickly to questions and any needs you may encounter. We will definitely be returning the next time Portsmouth is on our vacation list!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Although the home is an older home, it has been updated in the necessary areas and was veryclean and organized. The location was terrific. You can walk downtown to restaurants and shops in less than 10 minutes. Michelle, the owner i believe was great, very communicative. We would definitely stay again, and probably will. We had a terrific stay. Thank you Michelle! Shaun and Family. location

Great location, walkable to the city
We enjoyed our 3 generational family trip to Portsmouth, NH. The house was a perfect fit for our family and had all of the conveniences of home. The city was filled with restaurants, shops and historical buildings, most in walking distance. We enjoyed a narrated harbor cruise, took a day trip to Boston and went multiple times to the Atlantic Ocean beaches.

Portsmouth stay
This home was amazing. It has lots of little extra personal touches. Michelle, the owner went out of her way to accommodate any special requests we had. It is so convenient to downtime Portsmouth. We visited several different restaurants such as Street 360 for brunch and Thirsty Moose brewery. Trips to Newcastle beach and Durham for the food truck were also wonderful. Highly recommend the home.

UNH Reunion Weekend 2024
Our stay at Michelle's home was great! The location is perfect, an easy walk downtown or a short Uber ride. My girlfriends and I were there for the UNH Reunion weekend. Having 4 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths was perfect. Also, having the kitchen or the family room/den to hang out in was so much nicer than sitting around a hotel room to catch up. With the extra space, as opposed to being in a hotel room, no one had to worry about keeping anyone awake. If you wanted to stay up & talk you knew you would not bother someone who was trying to fall asleep. I would highly recommend Michelle's home to anyone visiting Portsmouth!
