From the late winter/early spring birdsong, to chef Nina's super tasty and nourishing breakfasts, the lushness of the surrounding environment, and the quiet all 'round, I loved staying in this studio. While there, I had a bunch of deadlines to meet, and it was such a treat to just sit, and work, and go for neighborhood walks in between. There's a fantastic market/deli with organic produce about 1 mile away in Highland Park -- an easy walk for those who like hills and hikes. In the studio, it was always easy to have hot water for cozy cups of tea, and I found parking in front or very close by. Nina is a very kind, thoughtful, and accommodating host, and I would gladly stay in the studio again :)
