Derek is the perfect host and his place was beautiful. He graciously accomodated our delayed check-in (traffic) and even had our room pre-cooled while waiting for us. The space was restful, clean, artfully appointed, and uncomplicated, the same as his hospitality. From start to finish, it was everything we expected, only even better. Five stars, plus one for Rooster, the sweet handsome dog who helped make us feel right at home.
