The home is indeed beautifully restored and has lots of character and charm. It was fully stocked with necessities, and the inside was very clean and well decorated. I truly appreciate the super comfortable bed, and the swivel chairs in living room were super comfy too - perfect to relax in and read. The curtains were not only very nice detailing but also blocked out light to allow us to sleep late. The furniture on front porch and back sitting area needed cleaning, we were unable to find a broom to clean them and the area off so we shook them off as best we could to enjoy the outdoors. The home provides added security with its private gated entrance which was a bonus to be secure in a gated yard. The house does front face the high traffic main road which if you are a light sleeper like me can be frustrating. Nevertheless, if you are like my husband he was able to tune it out but did agree there were quite a lot of 18 wheelers during the evening. Overall, we truly enjoyed the home, all the birds and flowers within the property and it was a fun and relaxing few days.
