About this property

Walk to the Square!

Aunt Almas is a charming cottage built in the 1930s. The open floor plan and beautiful, antique hardwood floors, make it warm and inviting the simple Decour allows you to relax and get away from it all sit out back on the small deck under the umbrella for coffee or a glass of wine!

Quaint home, great host, very clean and comfortable. It was perfect for the two of us. We would stay here again. FYI The bathroom is small and getting into the house would be difficult for someone with limited mobility.

The Perfect Place!

Angela’s home was the perfect play to stay for a quick trip to Mason. The home was VERY clean, well-appointed, comfortable and beautifully decorated. The location was ideal - only one block, and within walking distance, to the Mason square. We loved staying here and highly recommend it to anyone traveling to this area!

In town for wedding

Walking distance to the square. It's a clean and cheery little house. The heater was a little tricky to figure out, but we did. We would stay here again for any trip to Mason.

Lovely place

This sweet house provided everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Good eats literally within walking distance. Enjoyed coffee and tea on the porch. I fell in love with the window treatments! Only suggestion might be adding some kind of tasteful blackout curtains to the town-side bedroom windows. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Perfect Gateway!

My wife and I prefer staying in cottage style properties when we travel and Aunt Almas Cottage did not disappoint! It is decorated beautifully and in keeping with the period that this house was built and updated tastefully. We were fortunate enough to meet Angela, the host and owner when we arrived, and she is a lovely lady and very focused on us as her guest. Very accommodating! We give our overall rating 5 Stars and highly recommend you give this property a consideration when you are staying in Mason or the area!

We have stayed in many vacation rentals but here we genuinely felt we were at a friend’s cute little bungalo. The host was sweetly accommodating; beds comfortable; decor light and tasteful. The notes that some furniture came from family and the personal reviews and recommendations of “don’t miss” shops and restaurants add to the restful feeling that you are safe and well cared-for. One of our favorite memories is sitting on the back porch enjoying the breeze.
