This place is adorable! Super clean and well stocked like a fine hotel with nice linens and accessories. The peaceful atmosphere and relaxing rocking chairs overlooking the river were perfect for long talks or reading your favorite book. Host response was above expectations and the entire experience makes me longing for a return trip!
