We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the cleanliness of the property and the beds were really comfortable. Our favorite part was the extremely well stocked kitchen with all of the dishes, pots and pans we needed to cook. Cannot recommend staying here enough!

Quaint Retreat
Very cute and comfy house! Had everything we could want/need available in the home. Close to pretty much anything and everything. Very quiet area aside from the train- We love the train sounds so not a concern for us. Several local restaurants and a cafe are within walking distance. The yard is large and the deck is wonderful to relax on.
