Second time staying here with our pup, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. It’s an older home, but it’s clean and comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet. Check-in was easy, and John is a great host who is quick to respond should you have any questions. We’d definitely stay here again.

This was a wonderful place to stay! The home was reasonably priced, very clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was fantastic—close to beautiful hiking trails and bike trails, making it an ideal home base. We really appreciated the thoughtful amenities and the host's helpfulness! It was comfortable, convenient, and a great value. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this Vrbo. :)

We had a fantastic time. 2 adults 2 tweens 2 dogs. Dog and kid paradise. The house is older but it got everything you need. Full kitchen with a huge table, which we loved to hang out in. 2 comfortable bedrooms. My older child slept on an inflatable mattress in the living room, he loved having his own space. Great location. Host thought of every little thing you might need, cups, plates, silverware, trash bags, he even left a self care package including lotion, shampoo, shaving cream etc. the price was amazing, we were so happy we did not stay in the craziness of the touristy zone for rediculous price. Thank u so much for a great stay!

John was a great host. He replied to my questions immediately. The location was perfect, right in the middle of everything. The cottage was perfect for our stay. I loved being up on a hill looking down on the road below. It was quiet and relaxing. The outdoor lighting was definitely appreciated. It sure gets dark in the country. The back bed was very comfortable (we didn't use the front bedroom). The Internet and TV reception was fine. Overall, a great place to stay for a great price. Thank you John for letting us make memories in your quaint country cottage.
