This is a tiny place but you can't beat the location! There's not much room for hanging out, but if you're a single or couple simply looking for a clean home base within reasonable walking distance to attractions, this is it!

This place was perfect for my husband and I. We were able to hike some on the Appalachian Trail which was basically in the back yard. It had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable. The communication and check in was great.
