Perfect place to crash after wine tours

Yes, it’s small. But it’s bigger than a camper and we didn’t have to drive after enjoying local wineries. Portree right around the corner was lovely. Hye Thai ten minutes down the road was so good with wonderful service. The shower was a good size with lots of hot water. Would definitely stay here again, especially with fall coming.

These container homes are quaint and quiet! It’s definitely a great stay for a couples retreat! The small container is small, but great for a quiet get away for one or spending close time with your loved one! Communication was amazing with the owners and the area has tons to do!

Cute Container Lives Up to Name!

Loved the property! It was perfectly situated in a location with beautiful views. Loved being so close to a number of wineries; a few were literally walking distance. The price was just right and was a perfect fit for a weekend getaway. I was so relaxed I hated to leave. Looking forward to my next stay.
