Family was in town for the Polar Express train ride. This property was within walking distance to the train station and Everett St., where all of the little shops and restaurants are. We enjoyed the close proximity to all the local attractions.

Mid July summer week stay

Minor cons: back deck, deck table + chairs could have been wiped down/debris blown off before our arrival; Directv was not working a couple of nights (but we watched Netflix); no space/rooms for 2 people to work remotely if need be; although it allowed pets, 1/2 the (July) daytime hours the outside gravel driveway was in the direct sun and way too hot (hotter than concrete) for dogs' feet with no way to exit the house without walking across it; and the houses/cabins in "The Village" are a bit too close together for our taste where this house sits e.g. < 10 ' between homes, but all cabins are in good shape/well kept.
