Summary: This property was beautiful and tranquil. It was centrally located and had easy access to stores and major roads. Inside the home was well beautifully decorated and well appointed. All the amenities we need for a weeks stay was available in the house. I enjoyed the coffee bar. My kids really enjoyed taking care of the chickens and checking for eggs daily. Our host was very responsive and provided timely communications. This made for a memorable visit and exceeded our expectations. We plan on returning for another stay early next year.
