We spent a wonderful Christmas week at Mark and Svetlana’s with our adult children. Despite some pretty dicey weather, the place was warm and cheerful with a good vibe coming from the electric fireplace and the big windows. The furnishings are tasteful and the decor welcoming. We really liked having enough space for us all to feel comfortable. Two full baths and a powder room were perfect. As it was the holidays, we did lots of cooking and the kitchen was very well fitted with nearly every gadget imaginable. They even had an immersion blender which was handy as I made a big pot of soup to keep us warm and cozy. We frequently visit Salem and would happily stay here again.
