Kennesaw Cottage – Quiet Retreat

Summary:
Whether you’re a well-studied historian, a burgeoning nature enthusiast, or in town for a competitive sporting event, you won’t want to miss out on this chance to stay within the incredible destination of Kennesaw in scenic northern Georgia.

The Space:
At the aptly named Kennesaw Cottage, you’ll have an all-access pass to this area’s rich past along with an abundance of suburban charm and modern amenities. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, all the peace and privacy you desire on a vacation will be yours, allowing you to fully disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life at your leisure. If you do happen to be in the area for a travelling sports competition, you’ll be just 10 miles from the LakePoint Sports complex, making trips to and from the home for in-between downtime a breeze.

Inside the home, bright and airy spaces come thoughtfully curated with comfortable furnishings and charming décor, promoting connectivity as well as relaxation during your well-earned downtime. Sink into the plush living room sofa with chaise lounge while you surf the channels or queue up a movie on the 75-inch mounted TV, a woodburning fireplace just around the corner keeping you warm and toasty during the cooler months. A dedicated workspace will keep you up to date on emails even while away, with desk and chair offering a private space to complete your task. The fully equipped kitchen can assist in all your mealtime endeavors, with full sized appliances and ample counterspace and cabinetry for preparation and storage. Gather the whole crew for dining at the table, afterward breaking out the cards for a spontaneous game night.

The property is advertised as a “ quiet retreat”, however it is located right on a very busy road. Constant flow of traffic during day and all through the night. There was a lot of road noise heard in both bedrooms, making it difficult to sleep. Master bed was very firm and not comfortable at all to us. We had to sleep in the second bedroom. Communication from the management company was good and they were very responsive in bringing by a toaster, as there was not one in the home.

Great cottage

Cottage was great. My family stayed there for four months after a house fire. The property manager was attentive and responsive. The check in process was simple and easy.

Cozy and Comfortable

The home was newly updated and exceptionally clean. The property manager went over and beyond to accomadate us a day early due to a snow/ice storm coming in on check-in day. I will admit, I was a bit turned off at first at the thought of a property management company, as it seemed a bit unpersonable (we were used to home owner encounters with previous rentals), but the communication was excellent and the property manager himself reached out to us. We were thrilled with our stay and would stay here again when visiting the area.
