Wonderful peace and quiet. Loved to sit on the porch with coffee in the morning, listening to all the songbirds. Also, it was so peaceful in the evening, after a long day of hiking, taking a superclean hot tub, relaxing at the fire ring with a glass of wine and again, listening to the crickets and birds. Also, little touches made it special..a birthday cake for me (delicious!), and makeup remover pads and q-tips in the bathroom, both of which I forgot to bring! Thank you for such a nice respite.
