It was a very comfortable house in a quiet neighborhood. The location was just amazing. I looked up historic homes in the neighborhood and walked to a few and drove to others. It was really enjoyable. We sat outside a few times. Some of the outdoor furniture had seen better days but nothing we couldn't handle. The house had a ton of puzzles to pick from and beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again when we come to town.
