Summary: One of the most unique rental experiences we’ve ever had! There is now way words or pictures can do justice to this beautiful place. And in addition, Ken was an amazing host! He reached out when he noticed my booking seemed off—and yes, I had booked for the wrong year. We got that sorted and it was smooth sailing from then on. Check in was easy and it was nice of him to give us a tour of the grounds and explain all the thoughtful details of the studio. It’s not a huge place, but everything is so well thought out, you don’t miss the extra space. And also we spent most of our time enjoying the outdoors! Highly recommend, it’s just perfect!
