Perfect location

This casita was perfect location for an family event we were attending in the area. We were unable to enjoy this magical place with such a beautiful garden. Very lovely. Note the 2nd bedroom is not adjoining but easy to walk outside to gain access. Ideal for adults but if you have younger children this could be a bit of an issue. Was very pleased with stay otherwise!

Beautiful and relaxing casita on magnificent grounds

Whether you are in town visiting family, for a particular event or just vacationing in the area, you will not find a more beautiful place to stay. The casita is lovely....clean, comfortable and with all the little extras to make your stay enjoyable. Check-in was super easy and lights were on and doors unlocked just waiting for our arrival. Beds and bedding are great, refrigerator stocked with water, cute little ice maker and Kerig coffee maker. The gardens surrounding the casita are magnificent and there is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. You will not be disappointed in this place. I will definitely be back.

Practically perfect!

Carrie was a great host and I probably overindulged fresh fruit Available on the grounds. Very receptive answering the phone my questions. Nice and tidy and went out of her way to make me feel welcome… Sometimes the small things like coffee make all the difference in the world. I have recommended my friend stay at this location when she plans to be in town for a month. Thank you for making it clean available and for being such a great host
