Relaxing

Really nice views. Is attached to another house but we didn’t ever see the occupants. Heard them and their little dog occasionally but not a problem. Lots of birds and bunnies. Tiny little beach area but lovely. Super place to chill out. Older style home with all the things that go with that. We didn’t use the cooker or the dishwasher but the shower was good. Wm and dryer also worked well.
