The Bird House

We saw so many different birds at this central location, close to all the goodie food joints and shopping areas, but also very quiet and peaceful at night. It was stocked and ready like you never left home. A wonderful weekend away.

Warm & Sunny

The property was terrific. We enjoyed the firepit and easy walk to downtown. The only hiccup was not being able to get in on the day of our booking, but the owner got it straightened out the next day and refunded more than the one day we couldn't get in. We would stay at this property again without question!
