From the start, you will know this place and its hosts are special. Dennis and Valerie were super responsive, even though we were last-minute bookers. They offered advice on eating, drinking and hikes, all with consideration for our pup, so that we could plan our trip. They literally left the light on as we arrived late on our first day. Just inside the door was the thoughtful touch of a bowl of fresh water for Sophie and some welcome refreshments for me and my daughter. The place is lovely and well-appointed. Plush linens and towels, a heavenly mattress, cozy blankets, towels for your dog...everything thoughtfully chosen. Books and cards for entertainment, but the hiking and dining options nearby were our focus. It was the rejuvenating long weekend we hoped for, and I can’t wait to get back to visit again. Highly recommend!!
