"Check in great, location was close to town but on a very busy 4 way stop. The house was well stocked and I enjoyed some some decaf coffee, which was a treat. The beds were very hard which my pregnant body didn't like but it maybe ideal for some people. The decor and the feel of the house was very pleasant and my children loved the loft bed for hanging out in. We enjoyed our stay here for the most part. Nice host and well stocked home."
