Luxury accommodation on Traders Lake

MargaretRating, 5 stars7 months ago

I was in town to see Taylor Swift and it was just as much fun meeting Grace. Lovely, beautiful home and Grace was so warm and welcoming. I enjoyed my stay and felt very safe. It was super quick and easy to get downtown from here and I enjoyed the very close Starbucks and a donut shop near by before hitting the road to drive home in the morning. I will definitely stay here again. Wish I could’ve stayed longer to sit on the beautiful porch but there’s always next time.
