Memorable get-away!

We stayed in the 3 floor penthouse. I was a beautiful view with windows all around. The accommodations were perfect and we had all we needed. Inez's breakfast is amazing! It was nice they could give us advice on what to see, what to do and where to eat. Inez and David both wanted to make sure our stay was a great one! Thanks for everything! Jill Sweetland
