Need to have necessities available and convenient to find. Toilet tissue- shampoo in big enough bottle to last a week.Everything else was great but one of the Queen mattresses was very uncomfortable my son in-law. Said a spring was poking him and was in bad shape. Everything was great. Great location and a beautiful place. Criticism not ment in bad way. Just what I think needs to be fixed. Thank you.

We're so glad you enjoyed the great location and found the place beautiful overall, and we appreciate this feedback. We're sorry to hear about the mattress issue and are looking into getting it replaced so future guests don't run into the same problem. We also hear you on having enough toilet tissue and shampoo on hand, and we'll be double checking supplies before check-in going forward to make sure everything is convenient and well stocked. Thank you for taking the time to share these details, We aim for everyone to have an amazing stay either way us. Your feedback helps us meet that aim.
