The bungalow is incredibly cozy, very clean and has a well appointed kitchen, plenty of plush towels and warm, cozy blankets in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. There were seven of us staying at the bungalow for my son‘s graduation weekend and we were all quite comfortable and pleased with the accommodations.

Football Fun Weekend

Nice property that has been recently remodeled. Worked great for our group that came down for the football game. Great area out back to hang out with friends with a fire pit. Had a nice coffee bar which was a bonus. Would definitely stay here again!
