About the host

Hosted by Lulu Taylor

Host profile image
I love to offer a home away from home for my guests. I focus on creature comforts, luxurious amenities, and little touches that make a guest feel special. I am honored that each and every guest chose to book a stay and I strive to say thank you by offering an excellence experience during your travels.

Why they chose this property

A bustling daytime main street full of great food, drinks, and boutiques. At night the city slows down drastically and the views are great from the front porch or the back porch that faces the courtyard.

What makes this property unique

This beautiful 1870 historic site was home to the local Blacksmith shop. It is a great nod to the era of true craftsmanship and hardworking individuals serving the community. The exterior still remains fairly similar to the original building, and if you tune out the sounds of the modern world you get a moment to step back in time. I have added a few of the original pictures in the listing. The unit is in the upper level of the shop.
