About the host
Hosted by Jaime Klopfenstein
I am a lifetime resident of Indiana and have always loved the beach. The sand, waves, and sunshine make my heart happy. I enjoy traveling, exploring new areas, listening to live music, reading, playing games, and attending Broadway shows. I get excited to try different foods and cocktails at local restaurants in new places, and I am a lover of all animals. Through traveling, I have learned that the accommodations in which you stay while visiting a destination can make or break an experience. My goal is to make your time in the cottage an amazing and memorable getaway. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to make your time here better. I am so excited to share this little slice of heaven with you.
