Lovely location - with a few flaws
We loved our stay here and the flaws were minor. But they were, still, slight annoyances. We arrived in the late afternoon, right at check-in time (4:00pm) and followed the direction to get in the front door. Annoyance #1: Once you find the key in the lockbox, actually getting the front door unlocked and open is a challenge. Judging from the comments left in the guest book, this has been an ongoing annoyance for years. Annoyance #2: It was chilly when we arrived and we looked for instructions on how to turn on the heat. There were none. There are two free-standing AC units for hot days, but for cold days...how does one warm the house upon arrival? I texted the listed contact number and got no response. After some searching, we found the baseboard heaters and turned the dials to start them warming up. A simple note would have helped us locate them sooner. Annoyance #3: The back door, leading to the hot tub, is always locked from the outside. If you close it on the way out to the tub and you're the last person leaving the house, you'll be locked out. Annoyance #4: The main full bath upstairs has just one vanity that appears to have been built for a small child. Yes, these things are minor. We laughed and rolled with the punches. Knowing these things in advance, we would still likely stay here again. The location is great, and the proximity to places for hiking, biking, and sightseeing is superb. The kitchen is well equipped. Beds were comfortable.
