Gorgeous! Lovely artistic home with beautiful views! Lovely place to stay that is easy to get to with easy access to everything you want to see but is very private with gorgeous dark sky views. Will absolutely stay again. Thank you for accommodating us for a last minute stay when the first place we booked did not work out. Thank you thank you.
