Beautiful Historic home

The Eglin house has been beautifully restored with modern kitchen and bathrooms without losing any of its historic charm. The big porch was wonderful for coffee and visiting in the mornings. The massage chair was such a nice treat after much walking and driving. Beds and pillows were very comfortable and nice. The location was within 10 min of downtown and easy to navigate. Great place to stay!
