What a lovely cottage! The hosts has thoughtfully put their personality into the furnishings and decor. Prior to our stay the host sent us a list of places to eat and things to doin the area. This helped us plan our stay. Once we arrived, we found a bouquet of tulips and a bottle of wine for us to enjoy for our anniversary. Wonderful visit!

This studio was a very nice place to stay. Sufficiently stocked and well laid out so it felt roomy and comfortable. Walking distance to downtown Brunswick and the college providing easy access to restaurants, coffee, theater, museums and more.Owners were readily available, if needed, very kind and knowledgeable of all Brunswick has to offer. I recommend staying here.
