Out stay here was nothing but relaxing and enjoyable. Lana was a gracious host and it was fun getting to know her. Her breakfasts were delicious and the experience was like sitting around your own kitchen table. We truly plan to visit again. more

The hostess, Lana Richardson, is a very gracious and accomodating as well as readily available if needed. She went out of her way to arrange some wonderful trips for us... more
