If at first glance, you think the building seems underwhelming, don’t be fooled, Allison’s place is a gem. Being in there made me think of my college days when I had a stylish roommate who shopped at antique stores and flea markets. It’s spacious, has a lot of light and has a view of Cedar Lake. At first, we thought there would be a lot of noise from the traffic (it’s near a crossroads) but it was pretty quiet. We were there the whole weekend. The kitchen is all equipped, including a Keurig machine. The bathroom (also very stylish) is medium size, everything seemed new and everything was super clean. In the bedroom, the bed is low to the ground and semi-firm, which is what I prefer. Bedside tables are tree stumps. From Allison’s place, we walked around the lake (around 2 hours), we walked to coffee shops and restaurants (We recommend Rustica, & Punch Pizza). We loved being close to restaurants like Namaste Cafe, Barbette’ and Bookbarch bookstore, Magers & Quinn Books, not to mention lake Calhoun and Dogwood Coffeeshop. It was romantic getaway. My husband had a lovely time and would love to stay there again.
