There was no hand soap or anything else in the bathroom. The place is lovely but don’t count on quiet. There are 3 floors and you hear every thing. Grant it ,it is an old house. Love the beds and the fact that they allow dogs.

Sweet historic house in the heart of Valle Crucis, great communication and easy self check-in. Check website for "extras" like weekend food options and fun things across the street, enjoyed the pm music and nordic sauna! Great front porch with a view, lovely tubs in rooms, lots of personality! Definitely read details on room location if guests with mobility issues but lovely!
