Great cozy getaway

My husband and I loved this place, it felt so cozy and quaint. It’s a small family run business, Dave text us before our arrival and was there to greet us. He made us feel like we were a family member staying at his home. Very hospitable and friendly. We will definitely be returning! ♥️
