Michelle made sure we felt right at home as soon as we arrived, and let us know we could come to her with any issues. She had coffee, coffee cake, tea and fruit out for our stay, and lots of clean linens.

Make sure you know your travel companion well, as you can easily hear what goes on in the bathroom (not a problem for us)--or you can simply sit outside in the lovely backyard under the avocado trees.

There is no TV, so you might want to bring a laptop. Also, although the description says there is a washer and dryer, it is not actually in the cottage (it's in the house), although I'm sure you'd be welcome to use it if you asked.

If you are very allergic to animals, take note that there are 2 dogs that live in the house and roam about outside, and an adorable cat who occasionally makes an appearance outside. Would definitely stay here again!
