A very nicely appointed and tastefully decorated place to stay. A short walk to restaurants, parks and waterfronts, yet very quiet and off the beaten path. My wife and I enjoyed it very much.

The property had a musty, moldy smell. Parking was a problem as it’s a common driveway used by other homes, and I have a big vehicle. The place was dirty, spots on the comforter, dirt and spots on the walls,. The owner lives on the property and was very nice, but it was hard to get past the condition of the rental. I left early and got a partial refund.
