This was our third stay at the home. Inside was as great as always. The drive and back parking had some snow and ice through no fault of the owner. Throughout Old Town there were similar conditions. There had been work to make some parking possible. Since the ice was so thick, that must have been extremely difficult. The owner is wonderful to deal with.
