Sep 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy A perfect get away for the weekend, loved all of the extra amenities and supplies. It was clean and comfortable. We had a little trouble with the lock as it didn't pop open, had to sort of pry it open. Wanted to sleep in the loft but there was a dead June bug and some other littles up there. But, hey it is in the country!! ##### Janis Z.
