With the kitchen adjacent to the dining and living area, makes cooking enjoyable as you don’t feel separated from the conversations. All bedrooms just off the main living area with their own bathrooms are comfortable and nicely appointed. The property is serene and peaceful.

Summary: Heidi is amazing. The horses are awesome, although I'm not going to lie Franny's my favorite. The pictures on VRBO do not give it justice. The walking trails and oceans and amenities offered as well as the house and everything in it could not be improved upon. If you're looking for a place to stay with fresh air Outdoors trails and yet all the modern convenience of the whole house, I wouldn't pick anywhere else.
