Timeless Treasure
A beautiful, spacious, and comfortable home with timeless stateliness and beauty along with highly functioning modern updates. The breezes while lounging on the large front porch or in the back garden were a welcome respite from the sun. Our boys enjoyed the game rooms of the basement and 3rd floors. Each bedroom was comfortable and the bathrooms boasted excellent water pressure and immediately hot water. The air conditioning was abundant, which kept us cool. The dining room was spacious and the kitchen had every appliance you could want. Though there was a hiccup with access at check in, both VRBO and the home host worked efficiently to resolve. The home was clean, safe, and very conveniently located for heading to downtown eateries or running out for groceries. We were well cared for. We highly recommend this home and would happily stay here again!

This home is immaculate and gorgeous. The host is very responsive and kind. The neighborhood is safe and beautiful. If you have time take a stroll to see the many historical homes and unique architecture. You will immediately appreciate the care and originality of the home's heritage. My grandchildren loved the playroom. There is a space and privacy for all. This will be our go to place when we visit Ft. Wayne again.

This historical house was truly a gem! We had a blast spending time here for our daughter's graduation from Indiana Tech. There is plenty of room for everyone, lots of extras throughout this well-kept property, and the owner, Wanda was extremely pleasant and easy to communicate with. The game room and extra kids play room were fun bonuses, as was the giant dining room for eating, gathering, and playing games with our large group. Including the Attic room, (which is huge and has lots of sleeping room for kids and teens) there is a full bathroom on all 4 floors of this house. It was an absolutely perfect place for our large group and for the event we came into town for. Also the proximity to downtown was perfect and a lot of cute shops and places to eat are within walking distance, as well as just around the corner from Swinney Park. If we are ever in town with a large group again, we would definitely book Wanda's Historical house for another stay!

Great house for a family getaway
We loved staying here for a little spring break trip with family. The location was perfect for us with all of the places we wanted to visit within a 15 to 30 minute drive. The house was spacious and had a lot of character. We loved the comfy living room, large dining room table for playing games and sharing meals, and the game room. Wanda was great and communication was on point.

Indiana Tech Graduation
Clean and welcoming 1900’s house. House was right in a main Fort Wayne road so could hear traffic on that side of the house. But that road also meant convenient travel. Each of our party of ten had private quarters and there was a great large table for game playing. The house accommodated our graduation gathering perfectly. Thank you.

Upon our arrival, we had a small glitch with the keypad & quickly got the problem resolved with a phone call to the property manager.

Great exploration
It was a great location for 9 adults and 7 children (all under age 8) to stay while in town for a family get together. The children loved exploring all 4 floors of this beautiful 120 year old home. The kitchen floor was under renovation but we knew that before moving in. The owner was always available to answer our questions. The location was perfect for our needs.

Family holiday celebration
This is our second year to hold our family holiday celebration at Wanda’s place. Ft. Wayne is a good meeting location for our family from Ohio, Indiana, Colorado, & California. The house provides space for out of town family members to stay as well as space to host family meals for all to gather in one place. With four generations at our gathering, there is space for the eldest to be comfortable, the middle generations to cook as well as relax, and the youngest to play in the basement entertainment areas. The kitchen is well equipped with most everything needed to prepare small to large meals and the bedrooms are very comfortable. We definitely recommend Wanda’s place and hope to stay here again.
