Geoffrey was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. We had set some snacks out on the table and left for a few hours to find something had eaten some of our food. There is a back door access into the house that was left open to the outside, when you stay be sure that is closed as well as the internal door to the mud room. Other than that our stay was very nice, the beds are very comforting and the kitchen and bathrooms were very clean and comfortable.
