This ground-floor apartment was the perfect home base for us and our dog while we visited family in the area! The screened-in porch is the crown jewel of the property, and we spent every morning at either the outdoor sofa or dining table, enjoying the quiet and listening to the birds. In the kitchen, we found everything we needed to make our breakfast (bring your own butter), and found plenty of K cups to tide us over until we made a grocery run. Bryson’s is the closest grocery store - literally just up the road from the apartment. Be sure to check their hours of operation, as they closed at 6:30pm each day during our stay.There were guests staying in the main house, but we rarely heard anything from them. The stackable washer and dryer, as well as the iron and ironing board, were great to have on-hand.Carole was very responsive before and during our stay, and we look forward to staying at her apartment in the future.
