The bbq grills were too rusty to cook on. ##### Shirley C. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Buttercup P. 10 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and cozy Enjoyed a relaxing weekend. Everything true to listing. Friendly and prompt responses from the owners. Calm and beautiful location. Only cons were a small step between the kitchen and bedrooms resulted in a few toe injuries, and you're expected to clean despite the cleaning fee. Overall a great experience with lovely people. ##### Buttercup P.
