Even Better Than The Pictures!
What a lovely little place to rest our heads for a couple of days, in a beautiful little neighbourhood, pictures don’t do it justice. We’re on a Road Trip across the US and this place was lovely and homely. Small, but has everything you need and close to everything. Great host too, highly recommended.
