Cute little getaway in a place I grew up!

I initially looked at this place because it in a neighborhood I grew up in and is down the hill from my dad’s house. I wanted to be able to spend time with family but have a place to run to when I got tired of them. Lol. When I arrived I realized it is located right by the legendary spooky tree where the road forks around said tree and I was pretty excited. (It was spookier when there weren’t any houses in that area. Lol) the house was really cute and well kept. A winter storm hit right before we got there so we weren’t able to enjoy the outdoor seating much but it’s there and a nice set up. The only issue we had was that you had to shower quick or you would finish with cold water. I attribute that to the fact that the water replenishing the water heater was border line freezing. I’m sure in normal conditions the water heater works fine.
