The Heart House in NewBo

"The best Airbnb stateside!" according to one guest review. Located in the heart of the vibrant NewBo neighborhood, this cozy and eclectic space is the upstairs apartment of an 1890s era home listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Once slated for demolition, the Heart House was fully restored to include a first floor art gallery and a second floor Airbnb. Guests especially love the clawfoot tub (unless mobility is an issue) with rainfall showerhead, plus locally made bath products.
