Staying at Chris's place had it's pros and cons. She was out of town but the check in and communication was excellent. The location was ok for me and the property is charming.
There is no central heat. A space heater warmed up the bedroom bathroom area but the kitchen/common area has a wood stove and I hadn't built a fire in 40 years. It took a while. The bed is very comfortable. The bed linens and the towel were fresh and seemed new. The lack of a conventional sink area in the bathroom was challenging and it is a tight fit getting into the shower. The kitchen and related amenities are great. I ate her ice cream, but I bought her some more. As I was there by myself I thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful relaxing sitting area. I'm in the Grandmother generation and traditional - I wouldn't do it again. Like I said I'm traditional.
