The location is ideal, until you realize the narrow road to get to your location is scary and dark. This home is very very tiny and Although it is pet friendly there is no yard. We made the best of our trip given we were only sleeping there for 2 nights. Although it was clean, it is very outdated and has a smell of grandma's basement. They only supply you with 4 towels and there isn't a washer and dryer so come prepared. The area is wonderful, close to pretty much everything other than a Walmart or big chain store if you need any items be prepared to drive 20 minutes.
