    Had a wonderful two night stay at the Brava House. Found the accommodations just right for traveling for the first time with two shizto puppies. Very friendly, easy going and enjoyed a delicious breakfast on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Other guests were friendly and Robin and Mary were the perfect hosts. My husband and I would not think twice about returning. Thank you!!

    Beautiful rooms, loved the privacy
