We were a bit apprehensive about walking into a stranger's home. Colleen welcomed us with such warmth that we immediately felt comfortable. She found a nice balance between interaction and privacy. Each morning we found a carafe of coffee waiting for us in the kitchen, which we then enjoyed on either the back deck or the front porch. At the end of the day she left a bottle of wine in the refrigerator. We enjoyed our stay as we would enjoy the hospitality of a friend.
