Definitely was Happy Ranch
I love a space that has been well thought out and this place checked all the boxes. Including some I didnt have like the play nook for children which our 3 year old grand loved!! A pleasant suprise! We took a little walk along the creek bed. Really took time enjoying the wrap around porch enjoying the outside and peace. Everything was lovely and I'd visit again!
