Cute place with great yard but smoke smell was bad!!
Back yard was beautiful oasis. House was quaint little place attached to the main house. Only issues we had were the water pressure was extremely low and even though the unit says non smoking, smoke came in through the vent from the main house. So much so that we ended up leaving and getting a hotel and washing our things because they smelled like smoke. The kids were also getting sick from the smoke. Great place for someone who doesn’t mind the cigarette smoke and smell. We only slept at the place 1 of the 3 nights we paid for due to these issues. Paying for a place and not being able to stay because of it. I wish it had stated smoking unit so we would have known. We would have just went a different route. We ended up spending double the money to get a hotel and still had to pay for all the nights here.

Different is good
First time staying at a guest house. Made a last minute choice and didn't read that there wasn't a full kitchen. The space made up for it. No TVs in bedrooms but the outdoor area is beautiful. Rick was wonderful.
