It was a new experience for us. It was clean and very cozy. I was glad to get the king bed and it was very comfy as well. The hosts were very friendly and the food prepared was excellent! We were new to the experience of not having a lock on the bedroom door, but they let us know that they had outdoor cameras and had never had issues with theft or anything else for that matter. We were able to latch the door once inside the room. It rained some and for that and other reasons it would have been nice to have a place to pull up closer to the front of the house to load and unload luggage. The parking is on the property, just at the road. Overall we loved it and are glad for the experience!
