There are literally not enough words to describe the most humble, safe, and delicious place to stay. It felt like home. We are so grateful to have met him. Carla made us the BEST cinnamon rolls we've ever eaten too. Their dogs accompanied us to a small local restaurant, Genesis, and it was like having four legged body guards the whole time.
