Bike to Firesign Cafe, Shadyside Lounge, or the Sunnyside Restaurant. Hike the trails of Ward Creek State Park down the street, or join locals in a pickleball game at nearby Kilner Park.

With three dedicated bedrooms and another larger room that can serve as either a bedroom or playroom, guests will appreciate a good night's sleep after a day of activity. The spacious Master bedroom (Bedroom 1) upstairs features a king-size bed with new Winkbed mattress and en suite bathroom.
