Pros:
Lovely property. Jessa was very nice and accommodating. She worked with me to film with a film crew. We signed waivers, etc. The inside was clean. If the weather was nicer we would have used the lovely pool and jacuzzi.
Cons: first, it’s best to park on the street and not the driveway. At one point our film crew accidentally blocked Jessa in. Two of the nights I tried to leave for an errand I was semi blocked in by Jessa’s guests’ vehicles. I needed my friend to help me do a 7 point turn out of the driveway so I wouldn’t hit any cars. Second, if you are working with Jessa to agree to film on her property, make sure to ask the day and hours of her gardener. In the middle of filming the gardener turned on the lawn mower or leaf blower and we had to pause our work for almost 45 minutes. Third, if you appreciate your privacy, this is not the place for you. Not all windows are covered with curtains and she can look into your guest house from the main house. Probably most disappointing was that Jessa notified me two days before we checked in that she would be hosting “a cozy dinner party” on the shared patio on the last night of our stay. There were probably 15-20 guests right outside of our guest house. Multiple People walked by the doors and windows, looking into our living room and kitchen, throughout the night. One lady even opened our door and entered our living room looking for the party. We were startled and couldn’t relax until the guests left. To be fair, Jessa did apologize for the guests interrupting us and offered to reduce our bill by $100.
