This summer has been a dream
come true for The Nott! We have had the
opportunity to host SO MANY families &
couples from coast to coast!
Getting the chance to share our little slice of heaven, Marion, with people from all parts of
the U.S. (and even China!) has made our hearts happier than we can express!
Thank you to everyone in our amazing little neighborhood, that has helped make our guests stay here THE BEST! 🫶🏼

Thank you, Jennifer!
Knowing how much your family enjoyed our home-away-from-home last week is exactly why we LOVE this business opportunity we have been blessed with!

These guests know how to have an amazing bachelorette night away together!
They each got a private in home massage, dinner made by a private on-site chef, adorable matching pajamas and drink ware, and so many wonderful memories made!
We can’t tell you how much joy it brings us, to share this home with others & knowing that their stays are magical, memorable and rejuvenating!
Could you use a night away like this?
We would love to help you make that happen!

✨It’s the most
WONDERFUL
time of the year✨

About last night… hip.stir blew our minds.
Their patio is open, so if you’re planning a stay at The Nott, make a reservation, and make it fast.
And then prepare to experience what could easily be the best flavor experience in our area!
Incredible work .oathout and the entire Fun Not Fancy Restaurant Group!

When people inquire on how this Airbnb thing is going, they usually ask “Getting any guests?”
We usually nervously laugh a little and say, “It’s crazy, but we are getting a lot!”
That response is usually met with a look of disbelief and a lot of questions about why in the world people are seeking out our place to stay in Marion, IA?
The fact of the matter is, we too, have to often pinch ourselves in disbelief, mixed with a TON of gratitude!!
And the answer to the latter questions vary as much as you could imagine! Visiting family, meeting friends half way, traveling across the country, coming home for a wedding, a college graduation, or visiting a sick parent.
But the reason doesn’t matter to us, as long as when they walk through that door, slide off their shoes, they settle down in a cozy spot, alone or with loved ones, and feel completely at HOME!
And then we hope they are able to take a stroll uptown and fall completely in love with little old Marion, IA as much as we have over the years!
Swipe to see a map of where our guests are coming from this month!
Only 4 days without guests for the month of May at The Nott on Pucker Street... like I said, pinching ourselves.

These reviews surprise & delight us more than our guests will ever know! Just grateful beyond, for this fun (albeit sometimes stressful) opportunity to HOST wonderful people day after day.
We are overwhelmed with how fun this unexpected opportunity has been.
Prior to this opportunity “falling into our lap”, I always just wanted to “host”, it felt like what I was made to do, whatever that meant.
Creating a pressure free, welcoming place where people can just comfortably BE.
Who knew?
Hopeful. Tired. Grateful.
Goodnight. 💕

Today marks the end of our busiest week ever here at The Nott!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think this little business would take off the way it has.
When I tell you I cry almost every time I open this guestbook to a new note from our amazing guests, I mean I CRY! 😭
All I want is for people to come in the door, and feel completely AT HOME! I want it to be hard for them to leave...
I hope you will stay soon, and feel exactly that way!
And please, don’t forget to sign the guestbook!

The story behind our name...

It’s actually a simple little mash-up of our last name & the historical district that our home sits within.

We are Gabe & Robyn Lynott, the team behind the dream. Gabe made this dream home & Airbnb-dream-of-mine a reality, and is the best at helping me turn beds between guests, and I get to do all things hosting, which I truly LOVE!

So, “The Nott” is just the last half of our last name. It just felt like it fit!

“Pucker Street” is the Nationally Registered name for our neighborhood. Although our home sits on the corner of 8th Ave & 15th Street.
*Here comes the part that makes me feel embarrassed to use the name.* 🥴

“The neighborhood was called ‘Pucker Street’ because of the superior attitudes that some of its early residents were said to have possessed.” (Wikipedia)

Anyways... That’s it! That’s the origin of the name!
And we assure you that the neighborhood is warm, friendly and welcoming... Thankfully the superior attitudes have been left in the past!

We hope to host you soon!

I have accidentally been very quiet on social media lately, but I assure you things are active as ever over here at The Nott!

We have had more guests than we ever anticipated this early on in this new adventure, and I truly am falling more in love with this little hospitality business than I ever expected!

Each time I reset & clean the space for new guests, I find myself unable to resist creating new cozy details!

Today, I switched up the coffee table setting with some sweet little items that I adore! A few vintage books about Iowa, a plant grown from a cutting from my husbands great grandma’s original plant. Brass Candlesticks & candles, and the cutest coasters with our zip code all from .of.marion, and wood beads created by my lovely cousin-in-love, who owns !

Extra shout out to the incredibly warm sunshine highlighting them all in these photos! The weather here at The Nott has been INCREDIBLE this week, and the huge 8 foot windows make sure it pours in all over this space!

We hope you are feeling the warmth & glow of SPRING, and we hope to host you soon!

It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!

It may be cold outside, but the sun is shining bright on The Nott, and it’s warm & cozy inside!

New guests are coming today, so we had to hop on over to .co to grab a perfect dirty chai latte for us & a gift card for our new guests!

We love the way the sun pours into the large oversized windows, both here & at Uptown!
Swipe through to see just what we mean. ☀️☕️
