I feel I went above and beyond accommodating you. Made sure you got the discount requested. But got a 8 out of 10 for no reason. Just wondering . Try and find a hotel with that. Glad you stayed with us just wondering what could have been better.

I loved this sweet little house! It had everything I could possibly need and was so peaceful! I enjoyed the birds and the ground hog in the morning as well as the tree frogs at night. The bed was so comfy I will definitely be back next year!

Lovely little place

I really liked how the property was tucked back off of the street. It was cozy and quaint little guest house. My only complaint was the water. It had a strong sulfur smell. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook. The main bed was very comfortable and lots of things to do, even on the rainy days! The owner was very responsive to messages.
