Fantastic place

My 89 year old mother and I stayed so we can have visits with her 86 year old brother. It is a perfect location and very conducive for elderly adults. My mother very much enjoyed the back porch, house being one-level, and each room having its own bathroom worked perfectly.

Great spot

It was wonderful. Easy to walk around, and even to the city center. Well equipped. The deck/patio was a real asset, and so pleasant. The yard was thoroughly enclosed and private--great for our little dog. We loved it, and hope to return.
