Designing, renovating and furnishing the house gave me plenty to do over the last couple of years - my "Covid Project." I put a lot of my heart (and sweat!) into this house and hope you will love it as much as I do if you end up booking with me.
The airbnb is owned and managed by me (Giffin) - not hired out to a management company nor owned by a large corporation or out of town investor. As an avid traveler, frequent short term rental guest and newer host I hope to create the best airbnb experience for you. I will do everything I can to make sure you have a wonderful stay.
