Weekend trip

This place met all our needs. This home is located just outside of the tourist areas. So if you don't mind a little extra driving to get peace and quiet, along with the comforts of home, this is the place for you.

Holiday vacation

This property was great. There were enough real beds for all of us and it turned out very well. The loft-type room was very cozy and just what we needed to come back to each night. It's close to stores and was within driving distance of everything we had planned to do.
