Summary: This was our second Easter spent at the Thomas Harrison house and walking in the door felt like coming home again. There is plenty of space inside and out and plenty of cosy nooks. Town is steps away--enjoy shopping and yummy meals. Views of the lake from certain rooms in the house are the icing on th cake. Can't wait for next year!!
