Cozy updated cabin

My adult daughter, her dog and I stayed for three nights. The cabin was perfect: clean, comfortable and well stocked. Great location. We walked almost everwhere. We had a chance to meet the owners while there. They are very nice. We'bdefinatebookbook again

My Short Vacation

The process in getting th place was very easy… the Hobbit House is very close to the village and easy an easy walk to get town. The place was cute and my daughter loved the spiral staircase though for less fit people like us take the outside steps…lol… the place was clean and looks newly decorated. I would visit again. A great place to visit again.

Best location possible

We were so happy to find that this property was walking distance to everything. We parked and then didn't get back in the car until we headed home. EVERYTHING was so close. The only obstacle for us was using the winding stairs to get upstairs. It was very hard for us as both of us are healing from knee issues. The kitchen was well stocked and even though it says a Keurig coffee pot, it's a combo pot, so you can brew a pot of coffee if you want. (Important to us!) If you love your down pillow, bring it. The property was super quiet, and we appreciated that, especially in the morning when we sat outside to drink our coffee. The AC splits worked great! Mark was quick to respond to our questions and that, too, was appreciated.

Great location, nice place!

From the start comms with Mark were great! The locations and parking is great. The unit was recently remodeled and they did really nice choices with material, quality of work, and art/things! Great fireplace with easy start materials supplied and the t.v. has Spectrum TV and some other channels like Netflix, Amazon, etc. The kitchen is very nicely stocked with everything to make coffee to make full meals if you want to with a spacious deck in back with a bbq. The only challenge for us (and the dog) was the beautiful spiral staircase but as a back up there is an outside staircase. They own three units and we are looking forward to trying out the larger one next time!

Super Cute & Fresh

The cabin was immaculate and recently renovated. The cabin was very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the fireplace in the evening. The property doesn't feel very close to town, but in fact it is only a 5 minute walk to the town center. For those with mobility issues be aware that the spiral staircase to reach the bedrooms is both tight and steep.
