10/10 Exceptional

This was a bed and breakfast in a quiet location. The staff helped us get transportation around the area and to the airport which was much appreciated. The entire place was beautiful. We could see a lake outside of our room. It was fulling air-conditioned and they provided a terrific breakfast made to order. I would definitely stay here again.
