Great retreat!
We needed a place to stay that felt like home while visiting and babysitting our 6 month-old grandbaby. And this was the perfect place, just 1 mile from our kids’ house and fully outfitted. Great host!
Very much a younger person house. Could be more neutral age 20-65. Example regular dining room table instead of high cafe style. Needs to be more useful to kids and older people.
