Weekend getaway

My husband and I booked this container home for one night and it was perfect for just the two of us! It is really close to the wineries that we wanted to go to and our host was very responsive. We will definitely book again in the future!

Check in was convenient & we were about to be let in early which was super nice! Everything was great except the bed is a little rough to be honest.
