Cute place
The place is cute as can be. Owner has done a nice job of decorating in a compact space. We were greeted with a bottle of wine and some snacks.
The linens were plentiful and 5*. Kitchen was well appointed with a combo cooking oven. The place could use a table for eating. What’s there fits 1 nicely. The bathroom was comfortable, although the sink was too tiny to use comfortably.
If you’re planning to cook, bring food. The nearest grocery store, 25-30 min drive, is a small local grocery with limited selection. The town was very friendly and had a diner serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, 7 days a week.
The setting was lovely in a quiet area. View out the back was great.
There is no place to hang clothes. There’s a nice sized closet, but it’s full of clean supplies. Finding a way to consolidate to provide a bit of hanging space would be great.
TV was great but unless you had good cell service and hot spotted, you’re left with a good supply of older movies. Internet would be a great addition.
We found some great hiking trails about 30 minutes drive.
The owner was great. She returned a forgotten item. If you’re looking for a cute, clean, secluded getaway for two, I would recommend this place.
