The place was exactly as described. It was amazingly close to the downtown area where everything is. The host was easy to communicate with and even though she was out of town, made sure she was available if needed. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone who wants to visit this cool little town.

Lovely little guest cottage that was conveniently located to historic downtown Laurel. We even discovered that one of our favorite home renovations on Home Town was right across the street! The owner was extremely helpful and even baked us cookies. Would stay there again if we come back to Laurel.

Cottage was very well maintained and the property owners were very friendly, even baked us some cookies which we enjoyed the first night with a hot cup of coffee. Bed was comfortable and great wi-fi access. Several great local stores to shop at and places to eat near by. Excellent place for a couple to stay.
