Great central location
We were able to drive to just about everything we wanted to do within 10 to 20 minutes. The house was clean and calm. A perfect Retreat between all of our outings. We loved having two king size beds and two bathrooms since we were traveling as two couples and.twobathroothis.and.tbathrooms.
