Living In The Country

The location was perfect for us. Loved the country feel (horse and goat for neighbors ) . Courtyard was grand. The floorplan and kitchen layout was awkward. Couldn't watch much TV because we didn't have app passwords.Overall didn't come to watch TV spent most of the day off property. Had a great time.
