Mediteranium show tub with glass tiles, triple shower heads, one being a large "rainshower".

Extra sheets and towels, blankets, a large walk-in closet to hang your clothes and store your suitcases out of sight. A huge T V. , Wifi, easy key entry, self check-in. Best privacy. Lush with plants, flowers, and greenery. Host available next door if you need help with anything. Plus we have "instant book" and we're moderate

About the host
Hosted by Mary Stuart
I'm a happy person. God blessed me with 7 children! They are all grown and have families. My grandchildren are now a great joy to me. (11) and 5 ggreat grandchildren. I enjoy hosting, baking, writing poetry, growing flowers and gardening, swimming and the woods.
Why they chose this property
Why NOT this property? It's the perfect cottage in the perfect location. And I love accommodating people, knowing they are having fun and/or getting important things accomplished. And I am being helped nicely with my personal finances. Thank you all for helping me help others who need and deserve it.
What makes this property unique
I have met so many wonderful people, by hosting, that I never would have had the chance to meet! Teachers, nurses, a professor, a cross-country biker, entrepreneurs of all descriptions! These people have enriched my life in ways they can't imagine, even though we were like freight trains that passed in the night, I will never forget them.
