As Advertised!

Property was exactly as described and was a very private little cottage. Sarah was super communicative, and made our stay very enjoyable. The space provided us ample room and was much more enjoyable than a hotel. Would stay again!

Cozy Neighborhood Hideaway

We enjoyed our 4-night stay in the cozy cottage with our two golden retrievers. There was plenty of room, the cottage was clean and had everything we needed to eat most of our meals in during our stay. The communication with the host was simple and had a quick turnaround. The owners give you all the space and privacy you would like. We would definitely stay again.

Cute and peaceful

I absolutely fell in love with this little cottage! I have a two year old and he loved the bunnies and the big fluffy squirrel who had breakfast with us one morning. The house was perfect for a couple. It’s secluded and has everything needed for a weekend getaway.

Great Stay

Very relaxing stay. Self check in was super easy. The cottage was very nice and comfortable. It was well appointed, with everything we needed. Lot's of books and DVDS. There were even drinks and snacks in the kitchen! Our dog Lana enjoyed it as well. She was very relaxed and enjoyed the fenced in yard as well as some short walks. We would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.
