Relaxing getaway

Super clean, quiet and relaxing place to stay. Outside of town but close enough to go in for entertainment. Home has everything you need to cook, take a bath or shower & do your laundry. We played games (they had games there), sat in the sunroom and watched the sun come up and go down. Jennifer was very informative and sweet. The whole experience was amazing!!
