We stayed in the comfy Cove and Patricia was a wonderful host. She was very easy-going, talkative and liked to hang out with us. I really appreciate that in a host, and I will be back. The Highlight was stargazing in the hot tub, once I figured out how to temporarily turn off some of the ambient night lights in the garden.
Things to improve:
The inside of the space could have been a bit cleaner (inside of the microwave and dead spiders on the floor, for example).
there was a bug screen door hang over the entrance to the cove, as well as a net over the small window, but neither were affixed to the frame of the window and door, therefore were not functional mosquito-proofing. We just shut the windows and doors at dusk, and did not get pestered by any mosquitoes inside. For the outdoors, she has furnished non-deet mosquito spray.
There were a few spoons, but only one plastic fork. You might want to bring some of your own ware.
We had enough disposable and non-disposable plates bowls, etc..The
Two plastic wine glasses were very handy, and three small coffee cups were provided.
The heads of the bar sink in the Comfy Cove, as well as the showerhead in the outhouse shower, could use replacing, as the flow sprays everywhere or has very low pressure, respectively. The outdoor shower head has great pressure, if you’re willing to shower with your swimsuit. These were small and tolerable things.
Overall, incredible value and an amazing host. There was no dank smell or mold, even though we were staying in a wine cellar.
I would definitely come back to this welcoming and charming sanctuary in the mountains.
