Rick was easy to communicate with. He met us when we arrived and gave us a thorough walk through. Everything we needed was provided, and we knew if we needed anything from Rick, he would be very helpful. We spent two wonderful days in the comfy cottage... wish we could have stayed longer. The cottage is beautiful, and well appointed. I enjoyed fresh fruit and options for coffee or tea in the morning!! BTW, the garden is gorgeous... even in the winter! I loved the succulents and raised beds, especially the dwarf avocado tree by our front door. The bed and the fold out bed were both comfy. The bathroom was clean, equipped with fluffy towels, shampoo, hair dryer, etc. There is a washer and dryer in the garage for guests use. The mini-kitchen was perfectly adequate for us given our activities. The location was perfect for us! We really enjoyed our time here!! Thank you Rick for being such an attentive host!!
