This is our third visit to the Hillside Hideaway, and it did not disappoint! Comfortable beds, a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of space to relax in the living room are some of our favorite features! Our adult children don’t like sharing a queen sized bed, so one of them slept on the couch in the living room and reported that it was very comfy. Highly recommend!
