It was lovely and relaxing. The space was beautifully decorated and cozy, but the right size for me and my partner. The kitchen was sweet and everything was easy to use. Plenty of towels and clean linens. The only small issue was it seemed like someone missed some spots sweeping, there was a bit of dust and some random hairs, but not a big deal at all.

We stumbled upon this beautiful peaceful home last minute. Jessie was responsive and provided clear instructions for check in and check out. We loved how comfortable the beds were and how dog friendly this place is. We highly recommend this place if you are looking for a peaceful quiet get away!
