The beds were great! Nice large yard with opportunities to see interesting birds, deer and other wildlife. The neighbor houses are quite far away adding to the tranquil private setting. And the neighborhood local streets made for relaxing, quiet walks.Finally the host Melisa was very responsive for our few minor questions.
