We could not have been happier! We hope to return year after year at Thanksgiving. We will recommend this little town to our Yankee friends. Thanks for everything.

We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back but in this trip we bought our own. So even if we can't or don't come again we'll be neighbors. It was great being away from all the tourist places and enjoying all this peace and quiet. Thank you so much.
