Where do I even begin?! The moment we got out of the car, Jeff was waiting for us outside and eager to get us checked in and show us around. His personality was boisterous and classy. We instantly knew we were had booked the perfect getaway! We put our things in the saloon and let me tell you, this place was jaw dropping. This was our initial impression after walking in the door only seconds after laying our eyes on it. We didn't have time to get settled and this firecracker of a woman (Tanya) walked in the saloon and asked us to join them for a drink. I was full of excitement at this point because not only was Tanya exuding with impeccable vibes, I could tell that she was about to make our lives heavenly for the weekend! Upon entering the main house, my eyes and soul were overwhelmed by the most amazing sight. NOT ONE detail was spared. This house is superior to any other B & B you could imagine. The amount of work and detail they have put into this wonderful piece of history they call home, is beyond anything you could fathom. We were lead to the bar area, where a drink of our choice was neatly prepared as we were primed for the rest of the tour. They showed us every inch of this magical home, even the front yard. They missed NOTHING! We were in absolute awe!! Not only did we feel like the luckiest guest to ever enter the property, but we felt like these people had been life long friends! After a tour of the main house, we were taken to the pool area where the atmosphere and ambiance is something quite magical! The landscape and foliage makes you feel as if you have entered a whole new world. Somewhere that makes you feel as if you can leave every worry behind and breathe in this refreshing greatness. The lighting around the pool, the way they have reclaimed wood pieces to create magical pieces of art, the way the glass fire pit is cozied up next to the Jacuzzi as well as a fire burning stove, will have you melting where you stand. Jeff had a fire burning for us upon arrival as well as the fire pit and insisted we get in the already bubbling Jacuzzi to wash our worries away. After this mesmerizing tour, we decided to head back to the saloon to get situated and check out the rest of the guest house. The wisteria was in full bloom and climbing up the sides of our patio creating a paradisiacal feel. The saloon looks like an authentic piece of history, straight out a movie scene. The wondrous art at every glance of this place will leave you reeling for more. Tanya has got to be the most talented, ingenious woman I've ever encountered. Everything you see was a labor of love and nothing short of hard work and amazingness. Just when we thought it couldn't get better, we made our way up the enchanting spiral stair case where beautiful pieces of stained glass line walls and BOOM! The main room! This romantic, enchanting, slice of heaven was made for lovers! The claw foot tub placed in the corner of the room along with the heart stopping décor upon every glance will make you want to stay there with your lover forever! We were in a state of serendipity! Tanya then welcomed us into the main house for the most delectable dinner that has ever touched our lips. How could this get any better you ask? The following morning we were served an exquisite breakfast along with bloody marys. We were able to enjoy the pool area all day with just the right amount of privacy. Tanya made sure we each had lunch catered to our likings and of course it was heaven to our pallets. We enjoyed our evening in the Jacuzzi with great music and shot pool before we finally called it a night. The next morning, we had coffee on our magical porch while Tanya prepared the most amazing pecan crusted French toast, covered in fresh cream and berries. This woman is the stuff dreams are made of! We LOVE Jeff and Tanya and feel they will forever be a part of our lives I could go on and on about this place and these people but do yourself a favor and check them out for yourself. You will not regret it. They have big plans for this place and if you can imagine, it will only be even more amazing.
