It's a charmingly quirky house. Just like Lucas. The host was quick to respond to questions. Easy to check in and out.

Garden view lodge

Great location for us. Only complaint i had is there is no wifi at the house, but there is satellite TV. Owners would be able to reduce monthly cost, but also make guests happier with wifi and a smart TV instead.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
There is no wifi or cell service at this place. We felt unsafe because the door could have easily been broken into. The museum across the street is very strange and unsettling. All 5 of my family members felt discernment not to stay the night. I contacted the host about it and she didn't get back to me for over 14 hours. There is only one place to eat in town and it was OK. This home and the weird museum are over 15 miles out of the way and very isolated. The beds looked fine but there is also no living space for 5 people to comfortably hang out together. If we had service or wifi or a secure door we may have stayed. The combination of feeling unsafe and the unsettling statues across the street were enough for us to move along.
