Good Property, Accommodating Hosts
Our childcare provider suffered an unexpected medical emergency a few days prior to our departure which required us to bring our two kids along on the trip. I messaged the host and they were gracious to let us bring our kids with the caveat that it may not be the most comfortable place for them due to the fold out couch downstairs. We elected to have the kids sleep in the king bed upstairs with my wife while I retired to the couch of an evening. Everyone was happy with the arrangement.
The neighborhood is quiet and out of the way with many panoramic views on the way in just off the parkway.
The rooms were clean and spotless with modern appliances and electronics complete with WiFi ,and Bluetooth capabilities.

Power grid
We experienced brown outs regularly all three days/nights. We could not watch TV because it kept booting down. The last night the power in our room went out completely about 9:30. Felt it too late to contact management so packed up and left next morning when it got light enough.
You can’t see in pictures but you are right beside houses on both sides. Not even trees or bushes for screen.
Place was clean and dishes towels supplied.

Cozy space tucked away
Everything was nice and clean. Very well decorated and warm when we got there. The owner was quick to reply to my inquiries and made a couple fantastic suggestions to enjoy our honeymoon to the fullest. Couldn't recommend enough.
