Girls weekend

Our “train car” tiny house was exactly as advertised. Very clean, a small/tiny refrigerator and a microwave. We had everything we needed although a little bigger refrigerator would be nice. The “trundle bed” was a mattress on the floor. We had a great time and our host was great.

We felt like we were in a tree fort. It was wonderful. The river was beautiful and Stephanie and Tom were very accommodating to what we ever we needed.
