Summary: My wife has been dying to sleep in the shoe for 30 years. She nearly died when she discovered her birthday surprise of a weekend in the shoe house. We had so much fun doing shoe themed activities and eating foot/shoe themed things. I think it's so much fun to be able to say we slept in a shoe. We had an absolute blast!

Summary: We live locally and rented for one night for my husbands birthday! The interior was decorated really cute! Unfortunately it was misting outside so we didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit, but still got to enjoy the hot tub! Great hosts, easy to check in, very accommodating! Definitely would recommend! Very unique experience!

Summary: We had a fabulous weekend celebrating our 40th anniversary at the Shoe House. The house is beautifully decorated with every detail thought of by the hosts. We spent our weekend cooking together, playing games, sitting out by the fire pit and enjoying the hot tub. Sleeping accommodations are comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The downstairs family room is where we gathered the most and having a full refrigerator, bar, and coffee station was a huge plus. We had a fabulous memorable time. The host's communication was exceptional and instructions for check in and check out were timely and clear. Don't hesitate to book a stay here!

Summary: Loved living history for 2 nights in the Shoe House! We were a group of 5 friends for a high school reunion. The property is well maintained and enjoyed all the historical mid century touches. The current owners did a great job honoring the original decor and intent of the property. In the basement, there was a mini museum and gift shop about the history of the house. We got a kick out of a few tourists stopping to take pictures. The place has it's own official historical landmark sign out front. There are only 3 bedrooms but we were able to spread out and use the basement couch as a bed and 2 of us shared the larger bedroom. Since it's a shoe, there are some tight corners and odd shaped closets but that was all part of the charm. I wouldn't advise preparing any large meals as the kitchen is tiny. We ended up at the First Post pub around the corner which was excellent. Also took a side trip to the York Central Market for some fun cheese and casual eats.
