This property was perfect for our family of six in town for a wedding. We found it immaculately kept with all the comforts necessary for our stay...even an ironing board! It is an easy walk to downtown shops and restaurants and to the lovely Lake Agnes. The owner went above and beyond to ensure an excellent stay. Highly recommend!
