Romantic Cozy Cabin for Two

You've found an exquisite small, comfortable cabin filled with all the love that a home can contain! It's located in a garden paradise! ...a yard where you are encouraged to step off the path to pick fruits and vegetables. It's a lover's hideaway with multiple places to enjoy private conversation, champagne or simply be. Play scrabble in the vegetable garden, drink wine in the flower garden. African tortoises roam the yard on warm days, Rhode Island Reds hunt for bugs and provide fresh eggs.
