Summary: We were in the area to watch college ultimate frisbee tournament, but loved being able to return to this great escape. Very comfortable for two. Design of living space, attention to detail in decoration and stocking of unit were really fantastic. Highly recommend as a great place to relax or use as a launching pad to explore.
