Property location was very easy to find. And check in was a breeze. Communication with Glenda was fast no matter the time of day or night. We enjoyed fresh eggs from the chickens. And sweet tea and lemonade left for us.

This beautifully decorated, spacious home had everything you could possibly want or need including fresh eggs from the chickens who live right next door. Glenda was a great host who had lots of cold water waiting in the fridge which was most welcome after a long drive from north Georgia. Thanks Glenda
