    Relaxing and Serene

    December 13, 2012

    Was surprised by this last minute find. Stone's throw from downtown, yet feel like you are in the mountains. Panda and the rest of the animals very friendly. Good conversation and hostesses very knowledgable of the area and things to do. Would definitely recommend this to anyone!

    Heather is a wonderful host that makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. The house is great! My son had a blast in her pond and waterfall& enjoyed playing with the neighbor boy. They swam, caught frogs, boated... It's a quiet, relaxing & beautiful place where an adult can relax while the kids play. The animals were great also. Next time I'm staying here again!!!!
