Beautifully renovated historic home

We are a group of 6 women 60+ years of age who have been traveling together for over 45 years. We all LOVED this 100+ year-old renovated house! It was very clean, the owners were quite attentive to details and it was perfect for our annual girls' trip. We loved how the updated kitchen and baths still maintained the house's old charms. The 9 acre property was beautiful, with secret gardens and ample wildlife. Everything about this house was delightful.
