    "We loved our stay! My favorite parts were the delicious breakfast and relaxing on the patio. Sheri clearly puts a lot of thought into accommodating guests' dietary preferences. The area is charming and cozy. Perfect for a walk or run, and conveniently close to everything! My only suggestion would be to add king-size beds to all rooms. The queen beds were comfortable, but a king bed would be even better for couples."
