This has got to be the cleanest and best maintained vacation rental / bnb that we have ever stayed at. You can tell the care the hosts have taken in every little detail. The quality of finishing work is also great, which is a nice change from the typical shoddy DIY quality you see in vacation rentals. We stayed in late September such that we needed heat (overnight) and air conditioning (during the day), and both worked flawlessly. Would absolutely stay here again!

We loved our time - beautiful town and the path is peaceful. The backyard is relaxing and a perfect place to chill. The pull out bed could use a pillow top comforter and the hot water could be turned down a notch. We so appreciated all the helpful labels too!! We want to stay longer next time!!
