The Smith House

10/10 Excellent

"The Smith House is wonderful. The rooms are cozy and clean. The bed was comfortable. I would just suggest that the room not have a coffee pot. No one really uses them in the rooms. Might think about having a coffee pot self serve in each of the buildings, in the main room, like the sitting area. The staff was great!! The location is great! We are already planning our next visit!"
