The host is generous and thoughtful - all sorts of amenities are available for a very comfortable stay. Our children enjoyed the games and toys that were available, including colored pencils and drawing paper for some creative time. We spent a lot of time enjoying the screened-in porch in back and the Adirondack chairs on the front porch. High end appliances and finishes surround you in this picture-perfect Postcard Cottage! ##### Martha D.
