Wow.

What a lovely, peaceful stay we had at the cottage. We had everything we needed and especially loved the back patio. We were visiting family nearby and it was just perfect. We will be back!

We stayed here while visiting Tallahassee for my daughter’s graduation, and after seeing so many places taking advantage of graduation weekend with absolutely outrageous pricing — some charging thousands for tiny apartments or single rooms — we were incredibly appreciative to find a place that was fairly priced and honestly exceeded our expectations.The home was spotless, comfortable, and just incredibly easy to settle into. One of our favorite parts was the screened-in back porch. It rained most of the time we were there, but that actually made it even better — we spent evenings sitting out there drinking wine and watching the rain, which ended up being one of the most relaxing parts of the trip.The bed was very comfortable, the towels were wonderful, and all of the kitchen items, utensils, cups, etc. felt high quality and thoughtfully chosen. Nothing felt cheap or thrown together. It was clear the hosts put real care into making the stay comfortable.Communication with the hosts was also excellent from start to finish — very responsive, helpful, and easy to work with.We truly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely stay here again if we return to Tallahassee in the future.Also — we realized after leaving that we forgot to sign the guest book, and we’re so sorry about that!

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind and heartfelt review. It truly made our day. We’re delighted to hear that our home could be a comfortable and welcoming place for you during such a special weekend. Graduation trips can be hectic, so knowing you were able to relax, enjoy the screened-in porch, and unwind with the sound of the rain means a lot to us. We’re so glad the space felt thoughtfully put together and that the little details — from the kitchen items to the towels to the bed — helped make your stay enjoyable. We put a lot of care into creating a place that feels like a true home away from home, and your words remind us why we do it. Thank you as well for the kind note about communication — it was a pleasure hosting you. And please don’t worry for a moment about the guest book! Your message here is more than enough. We’d be honored to welcome you back anytime you return to Tallahassee. Wishing you and your daughter all the best in this exciting new chapter.
