After a stressful period by my mother's bedside, I was looking for a relaxing home to stay in when my family arrived for her funeral, preferably in a safe, low traffic area with which I was familiar. Carol and her house was a Godsend! She was so kind and personable, offering some accommodations for our circumstances. If you need anything, don't be afraid to call her.
This immaculate home has a cozy cottage feel with an amazing, well-equipped, modern kitchen and updated bathrooms. Everything we needed to be comfortable and to cook for a group was provided. Top-of-the-line appliances and plenty of cookware and dishes for a crowd are provided, as well as plenty of linens. There are plenty of places to sit and chairs that can be moved from the porch to the main living room, as needed, or you can use the porch as a spot to get away from everyone. It was the perfect location for cousins to drop by for dinner or to hang out. We did not have a chance to use the fire pit, but we did take advantage of the gas grill one night.
Everyone who dropped by to see us was impressed with the home. A bonus for me was that it was so tastefully decorated to feel like a home, not a timeshare or a hotel, which is my usual experience. It was the balm I needed at the time, and I would love stay there again when I come to visit my brother who lives in Gainesville.
