Helen was a responsive, thoughtful, and gracious host. We very much enjoyed conversing with her and appreciated the tips on places to hike and dine. We loved her attention to detail in providing just about everything we could possibly want or need. The apartment was very comfortable and clean and nicely furnished and decorated. Some extra little touches we particularly loved were the luxuriously plush towels on a heated towel rack in the bathroom along with cozy bathrobes and slippers. The bedroom was private and quiet - a wonderful room for sleeping at night with wonderful light during the day. The bed was very comfortable and the bed linens and blankets were all soft and oh, so comfy. The location of Helen's home was conveniently located to enjoy all of the area's activities and restaurants. We were able to walk up to a county park from Helen's house and enjoy hiking trails with wonderful views. The coastal walking trail and other wonderful places to hike were all very close by, as well. We loved our stay and hope to return again someday!
