It was a beautiful place, as advertised and well worth the money. Just wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully next time.

Stayed here for new years as a little getaway close to home. This was a lucky find. The most unique and adorable place I’ve stayed in to this day!

The place was clean, smelled fresh, the muffins she had were amazing. Every little detail was perfect.  Will definitely be back. Worth the 4 hour drive!
