On a trip to visit my 95 year old mother we stayed in Charisse's Studio for about a week. We were warmly greeted by Charisse and felt very welcome to their lovely home and sweet cottage. The ability to have driveway parking was a real convenience and a big plus for loading and unloading. The Cottage was quite charming with wonderful artwork decorating the walls, it had a comfortable bed and a really great shower as well as a beautiful private garden space with a table and chairs. The neighborhood was extremely quiet, safe, peaceful and was walk-able with a nice park nearby and shops/restaurants a bit further.
I'm sorry that due to driving to be with my mom everyday I wasn't able to visit or engage with Charisse beyond check-in, but her desire to make her guests comfortable and feel at home was apparent all throughout the property. Also communications with Charisse were quick and easy both before and during our stay.
A few things to note for travelers: if like us you prefer a more environmental coffee maker and/or tea kettle instead of the Keurig coffee machine pictured in the photos, there is a drip coffee maker and an electric water kettle in the cupboard along with a hot plate which we weren't aware of until we arrived. They also have a different fridge/freezer which is pretty limited for space if you plan to get groceries and cook there - it is best for just a few things and leftovers.
All in all the Cottage Studio was wonderful, great location, and comfortable with a wonderful host....
