We loved this quaint, pet-friendly cottage. It was a perfect location for us to visit family, hike, and eat. We enjoyed waking up to the chickens!!! We also were able to feed them, which our 4-year-old loved.

Everything was great. The dogs and chickens are an interesting twist. The house was clean and in a great location. Although there were chickens, I didn't hear them in the morning so noise wasn't a problem. Next time I'm in Laporte, I would say here again. Thanks.
