Charming Cottage

Reminded us of earlier times that had been modernized for convenience. Loved the sunporch with a view of the birdfeeders and the woods! The kitchen was well equipped. We wished it had been warm enough to use the gazebo. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Comfortable house, amazing backyard!

Our family enjoyed our stay in July 2024 very much. The house was clean and comfortable, with almost everything we needed. Rooms were a tad smaller than pictures seemed to show. Backyard was incredible - we really enjoyed the screened in gazebo and the bird feeders. Overall, excellent!

Longtime friends

Lovely and relaxed little getaway for 4 friends for almost 40 years. House suited our needs for space. Kitchen was great and well equipped. Best feature was the darling gazebo, perfect for happy hour even when it rained. Loved the charm- just need to make it easier to lock the door when leaving.
