Great experience along with great value. Mark's place was just as advertised. Very comfortable, clean and the whole Zen setting was pretty cool. We didn't hang out on the patio, but it looked pretty inviting with the BBQ and view as well. It was a short ride into town. Don't be fooled by the approach to the house, it's a pretty busy driveway, etc. Front porch is cool and the inside has that laid back feel. Beds were comfy and the access to cooking utensils was easy. I would rank this as a very positive experience, very satisfied...4.5 Stars
