The grounds were relaxing and serene. The cottage was quaint and had all the amenities we wanted. We had a well appointed kitchen, an outdoor grill, a beautiful porch for sipping my morning coffee, comfortable beds, fireflies at dusk (not in the house :)), mature trees, a very friendly cat, a garage to park the car in. Our host was super-communicative throughout the whole process, start to finish. We highly recommend this property. Thanks Christine!
