Lovely place and lovely owners! This is truly a home away from home and not just a cliche. So much attention has been paid to detail, from design and cleanliness, to the touches of hospitality for enjoying a comfortable and relaxing stay. Caroline and Larry have thought of everything!
We booked for almost seven weeks over the Christmas holidays to visit family and friends. It was easy to find, and we arrived just as a rare snowstorm hit and were so pleased with how welcoming and cozy the carriage house was. Our visit continued through a significant cold snap, another (bigger) snowstorm, an impressive ice storm…and oh yeah, a sudden available appointment for wisdom teeth removal. This place was such a great hideaway from the world during all that, and we stayed inside more than is our habit. (Something about the gas fireplace and those heated tile floors in the bathroom and kitchen nook…mmmm.) Can’t help but think of those holiday lyrics: “Oh, the weather outside is frightful…let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!”
The owners are friendly, thoughtful and kind, responsive and very, very accommodating. They went out of their way to offer us things we might need or want—even the use of a Christmas tree. We followed their homemade guidebook and enjoyed walking at all the parks and trails suggested.
The wifi worked superbly for all our heavy usage, and having laundry machines in the unit was really convenient with some of the odd hours in our schedule. We loved the outdoor holiday lights, too. The location in Langley horse country is quiet and peaceful, and we often heard owls and coyotes at night.
Thank you for being so kind and for the great vacation stay!
