We were thankful that Robin and Jeff were genuinely gracious when we got caught in traffic and had to call to say we were running late and couldn't predict how long it would take to arrive. Once we finally arrived, we were greeted warmly and given a thorough tour with quick and easy explanations of how everything worked. They even wrote a personalized card and left a bottle of sparkling wine to help us celebrate our anniversary. We were almost sorry we don't drink, but we really appreciated the gesture. (I hope they got to it as a reward for being such great hosts). Then, they left us to ourselves with the knowledge we could just knock at the front door if we needed anything. We loved coming "home" to this lush green space in the middle of everything. We found the city a little overwhelming at times (navigating unknown freeways, heavy traffic, and massive crowds), but knowing we were coming back to this beautiful, private space calmed our spirits. The ability to walk to dinner and eat at so many wonderful restaurants in the neighborhood was also relaxing. Robin and Jeff's personalized guidebook to restaurants helped us choose just the right place for each meal. A low flying helicopter woke us a bit early one morning and we were reminded we were in the city when we heard sirens a few times, but all our other senses told us otherwise when we were at the cottage. Truly an oasis. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you both for helping to make our 13th anniversary one to remember!
