If you're like us, you're probably all too familiar with (and maybe even tired of) run-of-the-mill options for booking group accommodations or space for an event or gathering.
That's EXACTLY why we founded First Place...
The place Strathmore can count to be your home away from home, with boutique comfort and charm and amenities unmatched by traditional venues.
Our 2,180 sq ft character home sleeps 14, has a full kitchen and is equipped with the features and comforts of home.
Elegant, versatile and functional, our open-concept layout and magnificent Great Room provide the perfect location to gather, connect and celebrate!
In the spring and summer months, youâll also have our expansive patio and stunning outdoor space to enjoy during your stay or as the perfect backdrop to host the event of your dreams.
And this is truly just the beginning...There's SO MUCH more in store we are giddy to share and want to keep you IN THE KNOW!
We enjoyed a great weekend in this cute and very spacious home. We were staying for our son's wedding near Strathmore and the home had lots of separate spaces for sleeping and getting ready for our special event. The large gathering areas were perfect for hosting our extended families as well.
This property worked great to host an open house and family function for a birthday celebration. Lots of room to visit and enough beds for our group to stay
First Place was perfect for our needs as it has great space indoors and outdoors for everyone to gather and visit. The out of town guests really appreciated having a place to stay with all the comforts of home rather than a hotel room.
The kitchen facilities are spacious and have every item needed for dishware, utensils and appliances. Bring your groceries and clothing and enjoy!
We had a wonderful weekend at this house. The contact for the house was wonderful and very accommodating and responsive. We had forgotten a few items and they shipped them back to us! The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could ever need and the house was spacious enough for our family gathering of 7 adults and 6 children. A few things we brought to the attention of the owner is the carpet in the basement bedroom needed a deep cleaning or replacement as it did not appear that clean. The kitchen was amazingly well stocked but there were no empty cupboards for putting our own food and items in. Other than that we had a wonderful stay.
We love this beautiful home! There were 4 of us in town for the Strathmore Rodeo which was only 5 minutes away. The home is very clean and lovely, and has everything we needed for cooking. Our host was wonderful and communication was great. Oops, We accidentally set off the smoke alarm so we even got to meet the local fire department and the owner. They were all very gracious for our mistake. Would definitely recommend this beautiful home!
Upon arrival we discovered a house not well cared for and amenities dirty. The grounds were overgrown. The sheets on multiple beds had hair on them, were thread bare, and rumpled The throw blankets and some of the bedding smelled of BO. There were stains on the furniture, broken fingernails on the rug, sunflower seeds on entry carpet, toilets filthy. Due to the unclean nature it was hard to be in the house.
