Mini honeymoon
Great stay at a scenic village. It was great, the nights were so quiet, it felt like younwere at your own house and watching the train pass by was always a cool view. Carolee was very nice, helpful and willing to go above and beyond for me and my wife and id recommend it anyone wanting a get away
