Awesome place to stay

Loved this wee little gem. Great size for family with 3 teens - had everything we needed for a busy weekend with family events. Didn't get to try out the spa as we were too busy but would have great in Winter. Loved the well stocked kitchen esp the coffee machine and being able to use the washing machine/dryer. Place was super clean and had a great outside area
