Best little cottage ever!

I could not have been happier with staying at Everwood Cottage. It's cute, cozy and has everything you need to have an enjoyable, comfy stay. I loved the nature setting it was in, and the quiet, peaceful environment surrounding the place. The bed was extremely comfortable, and I had three excellent nights of sleep. (Obviously, this is subjective.) Sitting out in the yard was so nice while meditating, listening to the birds singing all about. The hosts were the best! Very attentive, quick to respond with every communication; reaching out making sure I was satisfied and enjoying my stay. Do not hesitate renting this beautiful space. You won't regret it!

Excellent Location, Wonderful amenities

Our second stay at this cottage was just as lovely as our first. The setup is perfect for 2 people with lots of space so you feel very comfortable. They also welcomed our dogs and have a great yard for them to hang out in. The cottage is close to St Louis, but still has a country living feel. Owners are quick to respond to any questions and lovely to deal with. We recommend this cottage.

Nice Private Cottage

Great area, great host, & the place had about everything needed. Shower is tiny, minisplit unit not user friendly (blows straight at face and not easy to try and get adjusted.) Could not personally stay here again strictly due to the mattress but that’s entirely subjective; everything else was nice.

Cute cottage

Overall the stay was good. Cottage was as described and met all our needs. It was well equipped and great spot for traveling with our pups. Only issue/complaint would be the heating situation. Weather was in mid 30-40 degree range and the cottage was not warm when we arrived. The mini split unit seemed to struggle to keep the place warm.

Great little house.

The house was very clean. It had everything we could need and it was in a very quite neighborhood. Nothing seemed to be more than a few minutes away. The owners checked on us via e-mail to see if we needed anything while we were there. They are very nice people.

We were there for a family wedding and needed a place to stay. We are so glad we found the cottage. It was so peaceful and quiet. A perfect place for us to retreat to for rest and relaxation. The hosts were in touch to make sure we had everything we needed. It was stocked pretty well though it could use better knives and a better can opener. We look forward to returning again some day.

Quiet Getaway

The place with everything; everything needed in a kitchen--even dish soap, trash bags. There was a washer and dryer--did a great job. Our dogs loved going outside and I liked the fact it was fenced. No one to bother you--quiet and in a location close to places to eat. We would book again.
