I I told Liz she should call displays her place hey retreat rather than a hot since it is larger and much more comfortable then what I would think of as a hot. Although I'm a light sleeper I very much enjoyed the sounds of the night birds and frogs some other travelers objected to. For me the more intrusive Night sounds what are the footfalls over a couple renting a much larger unit overhead but I have a feeling that unit is rarely rented and occupied. Perhaps the biggest concerned to be aware of is the telephone access is quite weak; you may have to be in a covered area outside the house to make an outgoing call. But the biggest positive here is the outstandingly helpful attitude of this homeowner what's lots of great hints and great availability to take questions. This is why I chose this location and I especially appreciated it, given the Olaf unless and remote attitude of the host I was with previously.
