I'm a writer working on my first novels, and used my stays to get away from home and make progress without the distractions of everyday life.
I've stayed twice at Virginia's cottage this year, once for a week at the end of May and most recently for two weeks in the middle of July. This second, longer visit confirmed what I experienced on my first–that it's the most quiet and comfortable getaway I could have hoped for.
When I'm working, I like to stay focused and avoid interruptions. If I could, I'd take nutrition through an I.V., but the little kitchen was the perfect Plan B. The few times that I wanted to cook, I had everything I needed to do so. Otherwise, my wife and I were able to prepare more than enough meals to cover the two weeks, most of it fitting into the little refrigerator in the kitchen. And I still brought a lot of that food home.
I've lived in Dallas for years and years, and I can hardly imagine a safer, quieter neighborhood that still puts you a short drive from most of what Dallas has to offer.
I highly, highly recommend it.
