My stay here was lovely. As I walked down the stone path to the apartment, I was struck by how serene it was. There were birds, little gardens and artful landscaping to greet you - if you have any stress in your life, be prepared to leave it behind you. The apartment has a peaceful yard, a covered sitting area with bird feeders and a bird bath. One day I sat at the table in the dining/work area staring out the large, corner picturesque window for at least an hour, watching birds bathe in the pretty bird bath and hummingbirds perch on branches.
The bed was wonderfully comfortable, and there was a lot of closet space. I unpacked for a month. The kitchen was a bright and cheerful space and the living room with fireplace and tv was one of my favorite spots at night. It is cozily calming.
I cannot say enough about the hosts. When I arrived, they brought me more hangers, a brand new coffee grinder when the one there didn’t work. I had some tv challenges and they went beyond any gracious host trying to fix and accommodate. They bought an Apple TV when things weren’t working with Netflix and when I asked to get Apple plus, she kindly took care of it. I had a mini-emergency when I was there and with hardly any notice, they immediately made up the other Murphy bed for a friend to come help me. When I left - sadly - Susan brought me the coolest little portable plastic flower vase so I could take my roses with me.
And there is a cat on property, Stella, who if you are a cat lover, is one of the sweetest bundles of furr you will meet in your life.
I cannot say enough about my month here. The hosts are kind and gracious and have created a warm, peaceful and life-giving space.
