One of the best!

Traveled all over the country stayed in countless properties coast to coast and this is a real find. Well appointed and clean with modern gourmet kitchen. Fully stocked for arrival, quiet neighborhood and the fireplace was appreciated by two florida natives visiting during the holidays. Wish it was warmer to enjoy outdoor area. Would definately stay again.

UConn weekend

This cottage is adorable-beautifully decorated and well appointed. I seriously want to hire whoever decorated this house for my house! Excellent communication with the owner. We stayed in January and it was cold!! The gas logs made it nice and toasty, but it took us a while to figure them out, written instructions on how to turn on the fireplace would have been helpful-but other than that we had a great stay!

Perfect Little Getaway

Four friends from College gathering for a special event. This cottage was absolutely lovely. While it's a small space, the owner redesigned it with a layout that uses every inch of space and feels so cozy and spacious. The kitchen is to die for, the beds are super comfy, the decor is so cozy and inviting. Loved the inside fireplace and outside fire pit. Perfect areas for chatting. The bathroom is spacious for such a tiny house. All updated appliances and amenities. Every dish, appliance, forgotten item has been thought of and is there. You can tell the owner has put a lot of thought into every detail. If we ever have another need to stay up near UCONN, we will absolutely be back. Perfect place to rent to see a game or visit a student. Just can't say enough positive about this rental.
