I would like to begin by saying that Karen and Steve are awesome hosts. My wife and I visited Karen's house in Dec 2018. They are extremely helpful and welcoming and treated us like family. The house is very well maintained, cosy, with great amenities (everything as described in her listing and better). The locality is serene and offers great views. Karen offered us her bikes for a ride around the area and Steve helped us with a problem in our baggage. Morning breakfast with eggs and toast, cereal and milk, and fresh fruits was yum.
I would definitely recommend staying at Karen's if you want to get out of the busy city life. It was very relaxing. I would give an additonal star for Karen's thoughtfulness and the little touches which made our stay very memorable.
