Weekend getaway
This property was just as advertised. Comfortable and nice. Communication with Heather was easy and prompt. Street was quite dark so the property can easily be missed at night but the neighborhood is lovely and historic.

Perfect and charming!
My husband and I booked this cottage for an anniversary weekend. It had everything we needed and even though it was located in the homeowner's backyard, it was completely private and peaceful. We came and went all weekend without seeing a single person. Fun facts: The Hope Floats house is located two lots down and it's an easy 1/2 mile stroll to all the downtown shops and restaurants. We liked feeling tucked away in the historic neighborhood but close enough to still walk to downtown. We will definitely be back and book again!
