I loved this charming restored cottage. It had such clean lines and simplicity that just the lack of visual clutter calmed my spirit. It was a breeze to settle in and pack up when done. Omar had just what anyone would need so don't over pack! He has CD/AM/FM system and TV with local cable; Kitchen w/coffee filters, salt/pepper, and nice stemwear. I left a nice candle, but don't hesitate to bring your own (safe ones) in your own holders...they add the perfect touch. He has all the shower gels, shampoo, conditioners, detanglers and even nail polish remover (since you'll be doing dishes by hand in the retro kitchen). There is always company out back for a chat or an (outdoor only) smoke so if you are alone...don't worry about feeling isolated. The front steps are a lovely place for private outdoor sitting. The picket fence was perfect for my little pooch. Neighbors were charming! Housekeeper is a doll! Thanks so much!
