This little house was truly one of the best vacation rentals that we've ever stayed in. It was just so well appointed and thought out. And the beds are so comfortable! First, they were definitely bought recently and the linens were very nice and they had various types of pillows - very important for my husband, a self-appointed pillow slob. No notes, we'll back and book again.
