Summary: This was the perfect home for our small group of friends to experience a reading retreat! It was spacious; clean; cozy; comfortable; wonderfully decorated. The kitchen had everything we needed. And truly, the space was designed perfectly to feel like the ideal space for a reading retreat. We were so pleased and would stay here again. Thank you for a great weekend!
