Ed met us at the door with a smile and a handshake. He also had a greeting written on a chalkboard in case our paths didn't cross. The place is exactly as described. It was clean and the kitchen well stocked. There is a binder on the coffee table that lists several places to visit /eat. This was very helpful. They also had extra towels in the bathroom as well as the use of their washer and dryer.
The homeowners give you complete privacy and do not "hover" but offer assistance if needed. It was a very pleasant stay and we look forward to staying with them again.
