10/10 Excellent
"I loved staying at the house as it was so very comfortable and relaxing. Everything you could need was available including setups for coffee and tea. There was plenty of towels and washcloths. The decor was spectacular with history lessons and antiques throughout the home. Each room in the house was amazing. I also loved that they checked to see if I had any needs. We loved the view off of the back porch and it was a great place to enjoy a cup of coffee. The home was very close to all of the places that we needed to go to in Plains."
