We arrived before the jaws of the polar vortex, wind howling at our bumper. The house was warm, easy to get into, and there were piles of blankets everywhere. We put up our little tree, pulled up a movie, and hunkered down for Christmas. The kitchen small but stocked, the beds are super-comfy, and as previously mentioned there is a wonderful supply of blankets. We used the washer & dryer, not something I thought I'd use but greatly appreciated. There's a grocery store a few blocks away that took care of whatever we forgot. This stay was a wonderful break, one we all enjoyed.
