  The view was amazing and the house was fantastic!
  
  What could be improved: No complaints about the property but it might be helpful to provide more hints or guidance to visitors about how to get around town and where to catch the local buses.

  Very comfortable and cozy with so many lovely personal touches anywhere my eye landed. The outdoor sitting area was beautiful and peaceful. I loved having coffee outside as the sun came
  up. The hosts were quickly responsive and very helpful.
  We did not cook but had we wanted to literally every pot and spice I can imagine were available
  Beds were comfortable and smelled and looked clean.
  Only consideration might be if you have trouble carting things like luggage up steps there are quite a few to get in. Not a problem for me as we were having a girl weekend (3 daughters spaced around country and myself) and my girls are strong and carried my suitcase easily.
  What a wonderful place to stay. The downtown area in Magnolia is great we bought coffee and pastries and fresh fruit and books and well a local cider each but we only drank one which was excellent.
  Five plus stars.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing except maybe steps if I would have had to carry my own suitcase. It would not deter me from coming back even if I had to partially unpack on sidewalk and make several trips up.
