We enjoyed staying at Lou and Helen’s place. It was quiet and had a peaceful atmosphere. The kitchenette was just enough to cook our own food and Helen supplied us with fresh eggs from own chickens! The gardens in the back yard are lovely. The whole apartment was very clean and the pictures online were accurate. The water in the shower was hot and had good pressure. Helen adds many thoughtful touches such as chocolate Easter eggs and shopping bags for getting groceries. She was also helpful to make hiking suggestions when we asked her. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming but give you your privacy.
