Safe Haven
Mia could not have been more accommodating and considerate of our plight as refugees from Hurricane Ida. Covington House is very clean and spacious. Lots of separate rooms for privacy as well as large open areas. Three tubs with handheld showers. One walk in shower with hand held fixture. At least one other 1/2 bath. Ramp at entrance. Lots of cool air. Big beautiful kitchen and laundry room. Could not have been more comfortable. Many years ago, this “ House “ was a restaurant. In our travels, we ate there twice. Never did I dream that one day we would be staying there as we ran from a storm.
