This a truley lovely place to spend an hour or two. The house itself is lovely but I really fell in love with the property itself. The plants were lovely and there were little nooks and crannys to just sit and rest your feet and enjoy the breeze and lovely shade. more

If you are looking for a place to hold your wedding reception this place is it. more
