The space
If you’re looking for a place that actually feels like a retreat — not just a bed and a roof — you’ve found it. The Playhouse Retreat gives you room to spread out, unwind, and actually enjoy your time here, whether you’re in town for work, family, or a long stay.
This home blends retro character, modern comfort, and plenty of space for groups who want convenience and personality. Workers love it. Families love it. Long-term guests settle in like it’s home.
The Space
4 bedrooms • 5 beds • 3.5 bathrooms
A layout that actually works for larger groups — no awkward squeezing, no fighting over bathrooms, no one getting stuck with a sad corner mattress.
Each bedroom has its own vibe: Hollywood glamour, GameTime energy, travel-inspired calm, and family-friendly comfort. Great beds, plenty of storage, and quiet rooms for early mornings or late-night work calls.
Two Living Rooms
Not everyone relaxes the same way, so you get options.
•Living Room 1 – Bright, boho, hanging chairs, the “grab a coffee and decompress” space.
•Living Room 2 – Fireplace, 70” Smart TV, big sofas, the “movie night and don’t talk to me” space.
Perfect for mixing families, coworkers, or groups who need a little breathing room.
Fully Equipped Kitchen
A modern, legit cooking kitchen — not the random Airbnb assortment of mismatched pans. Quartz counters, open shelving, plenty of cookware, and both Keurig + drip coffee. Cook real meals, pack lunches, or just make late-night snacks. It’s built for people staying longer than a weekend.
Retro Basement Game Room
This is the room everyone remembers. Arcade machines, pool table, colorful diner vibes, and that instant “okay I’m off-duty” feeling. Adults get competitive. Kids vanish for hours. The basement alone makes this house more fun than a standard rental.
Backyard Retreat
A private fenced yard with a hot tub, fire pit, hanging chairs, dining deck, and warm lighting that makes evenings feel like a vacation. It’s cozy, quiet, and surprisingly roomy — perfect for unwinding after a long workday or gathering the whole group at night.
