This was the perfect place for a girls weekend. It was in a great location, very convenient to the downtown shops and restaurants as well as the beach. We loved to walk down to the end of the road to see the beautiful lake views. The little details were greatly appreciated…coffee, creamer, teas, hot chocolate, soaps, kitchen utensil options, and much more. I would highly recommend staying here!
