The screened in and wrap around porches are purposely furnished with tables and rockers for guest use. They are all comfortably accessible through the many doors throughout the main level of the home. The parking is ample as you have access to a circle driveway as well as one behind the home.

All of your beds are made prior to arrival with freshly laundered linens, including the comforters, and are supplied with a full week’s stay.
