Idaho Summer

Submitted: September 13, 2011 Stayed: July 2011
We just returned from almost two months in The Monkey Cottage, while there we had kids, grandchildren, and lots of friends visit... everyone loved the house.
The patio was the favorite place to gather, the flowers in the yard were spectacular, there was something beautiful blooming all summer. What a lovely and comfortable home.
Gwendolyn help to arrange daily housekeeping and a chef which helped to make our summer one to remember.
Thank you
