The house is very close - walking distance to River Arts District. If it hadn't been so cold we would have used the bikes. There was coffee, an electric teapot, beer on tap, and a small fridge. There is a large window in the room which overlooks the main part of the house which made it feel not quite private. The hot tub is wonderful and we would have liked to have used the outdoor space but it was just too cold. I'm sure during nicer weather, it would have been wonderful. David was very helpful both in suggesting restaurants and when we had problems (the heat automatically went way down during the day). The house itself is lovely.
