About this property

Please be sure to use correct occupancy when booking. The Sunset Cottage is a place you can relax and forget about everyday cares. As soon as you step through the front door you’ll be greeted by memories of staying with your grandparents. This place is meant to be your home away from home, not somewhere that is stark and sterile. Our guests consistently comment on how comfy, cozy, and clean the house is and how available we are when needed. Don’t spend another second looking… book here. You’ll love it too.

The house itself covers just over 1,100 square feet and sleeps 8 people. There is a queen sized bed in the master bedroom, 2 twin bunk beds in the spare bedroom, and a queen sized sofa sleeper in the living room. The mostly level yard is perfect for kids to play in or you can relax on the large covered front porch.
You will have full use of the house and yard EXCLUDING the basement, and shed.
Charles and Amy live within 2 miles and are never more than a text or phone call away.

The Chicken Farm

When my youngest was small he told his Pops his name was Farmer John and he farmed chickens down on the Strawberry River. (He was about 4 and had never been to or that we knew of even heard of the Strawberry River.). His Pops called him Farmer John a lot after that and my son still brings it up often. His Pops has since passed so on this trip when we passed the Strawberry River sign it brought up memories, but, after seeing that sign, pulling up to this old style farm house and walking in and seeing all the chicken deco was great for him! He said “welcome to Farmer John’s chicken farm”. The house was great and the neighborhood was perfect. No noise no traffic in and out of the subdivision other than those that belong. We had a very pleasant stay. The host were caring enough to call and check on us during the storms we were having, that was great of them! If we are ever back in the area again we will definitely hope to be lucky enough to stay at the “Chicken Farm’ again!

Like a welcome home hug!

We wanted a place to stay near our destination and thought this cottage would be convenient, but we underestimated how wonderful the lodging would be! The cozy living room was perfect for TV watching, and the kitchen table was a precious meeting place. Friendly neighbors and breathtaking views along with the soft creaking of the solid wood floors made for some precious memories!

Feel at Home in Sunset Cottage

Our stay at this lovely home was wonderful and cozy. A simple, homey place awaits you during your stay in Williamstown. We were 5 minutes down the road from the Ark Encounter, which was our main destination during our stay. We ate in for breakfast and dinner, which worked out just fine. Our two kids enjoyed the bunkbeds and pretended they were “pirate ships” the whole time. The cottage itself was clean and comfortable to sleep and live in. We had regular communication with the owners- very kind people and attentive to our needs. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location!

This cozy little house was super close to the ark encounter. My family and I enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and in good order. The hosts were very responsive to messages as well.
