Susan and David were so breezy and accommodating, we felt quite welcome in their cozy home. The architectural significance of the house and its whimsical, artful touches were positively eye candy! We truly appreciated the fresh eggs and assortment of tasty breakfast foods in the morning. There was nothing more we could have wanted! While we had little contact with the hosts while we were there due to our schedules, we were fortunate to catch up with each other on the last morning when we shared an interesting and passionate exchange on childhood education. We would recommend staying with Susan and David for all of the reasons mentioned and if a truly shared space - animals and all - is what you desire. Be prepared for some light highway noise at night (nothing soft ear plugs wouldn't remedy if you're sensitive) and if another guest is booked in the adjacent room, some shower use negotiation :) While there are two separate bathrooms, one contains only a bathtub. We personally had no issue, and welcomed the human experience of sharing space in a home that promotes it so well.
