A very welcoming clean house with lots of amenities for your stay. The beds were comfy and cozy; mornings were the best along with the evenings. Morning coffee along with being greeted by beautiful company, families of deers. My family loved the fact these beautiful animals graze day and night within the neighborhood. Washer and dryer very convenient, no one likes packing dirty clothes. Detergent provided, very taken care of by the host and always checking in on our family :)A lovely stay
