Please note the driveway is shared with the home next door. The right 1/3 of the driveway is reserved for that house. The driveway is slightly steep upon entering and a bit narrow. If you have a vehicle low to the ground, enter and exit slowly to avoid scraping the bottom of your vehicle.

Need additional space? You can also book the 1-bedroom / 1-bath guest house next door. Inquire for more details!
