Charming home and walkable to downtown

We enjoyed the house very much. Had a table for playing games, tvs in each room for movie nights. Walkable to downtown and there is also a Free shuttle on the weekends that we used often. There is a binder in the house with yummy restaurant suggestions. We came to Mr Dora to see the VanGogh house and we coincided with the Arts and Crafts weekend. So many craft booths and cute boutiques and shops all throughout downtown. A great girls trip!

Weekday 2night stay

This is a very cute home, close enough to walk downtown to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed it very much and so did our dog. Nice fenced front lot as well as a fenced backyard with sitting area. Unfortunately we didn’t get a chance to use as the area had steady rain for both days. Would book again when in area.

Nice place

The house is small but was fine for 3 friends. it is a little far to walk to downtown for older people. the steep steps on the front porch definitely need a rail. the beds very very firm and the a. c. is loud. the t. v.s are hard to figure out. nice place to sit in the back yard. could use a grill. i would stay again only if a rail was put up the steps. very clean

Nice house in a great location!

Stayed at the cottage while visiting the area for a fishing tournament. The property was nice, clean, and had plenty of room for a small family. You could not ask for a better location being only a few blocks from downtown Dora. We literally walked to town each day for coffee and dinner, which was nice not having to deal with the traffic or parking. We'll definitely book again next time we're in the area!

Highly recommend

This cottage was exactly as described and was a perfect size for us (two adults and a pet). Owner was responsive and checked in with us upon arrival to make sure everything was ok. Comfortable and cozy living room and bedroom. Kitchen is small but more than adequate for what we needed. One thing worth noting is that the ceilings are low (just the style of the house) but if you're tall (>6.0ft) you need to watch out for the ceiling fans! The neighborhood is very quiet and the people we met on walks were very friendly. Its proximity to downtown is a big plus. We could be at any of the many lovely bars/restaurants/shops within a 10 minute casual stroll. Would stay here again for sure and highly recommend it.

Great Little Cottage

My friend and I were there only one full day, but the cottage is cute, the location is wonderful (in a quiet little neighborhood just a few blocks from downtown) and it is exactly as described. The gazebo out back is a lovely addition, tho if you plan on spending time out doors, do take some bug spray. The living room was cozy, the kitchen well stocked, and the back porch was bright and cheery. We drove to downtown, just because it was so hot, but in the fall it would be a lovely short walk. We are planning on going back just before Christmas, and will check to see if this cottage is available. I would recommend it to anyone.
