Everything I read on here is exactly what we got during our stay at Liz's place! While the kids were around, which wasn't much, everyone was both respectful of our presence as well as unapologetic about the fact that we were guests in their active home and lives. It was refreshing! The room was cute, clean, and well-equipped for our stay. The shower is GREAT, but we didn't get a chance to utilize that gorgeous tub. There was no pressure to hang out, but it was clear that the door was open for socializing. Great recommendations for food, experiences, and shopping abound! This is a house full of people who know and love where they live. And you get used to the stairs! Just watch your footing and don't give in to the momentum on the way down. Next time my boyfriend and I are in the area we hope to be able to stay here again!
