Firehouse 511 was better than the pictures! It had everything you needed or wanted! So very clean! The pool was an added bonus! We all loved the place! Will definitely stay there again!

We rented the fire house for a girls weekend. Right away its undeniable charm was obvious along with the spaciousness for all seven of us. The space was very clean along with the linens and towels. The location was ideal and a short drive into downtown. The rail is located directly behind the fire house, but we didn’t find it disruptive-just another part of the scenery.
The host was responsive to questions and proactive in trying to address any possible concerns.
We had so much fun reconnecting and relaxing here, would be a great space for your next trip!
