Our family had a wonderful 5 night stay during Thanksgiving 2025! Everything we needed was provided for our family of 6. Rooms were clean and comfy. We spent several hours every evening around the firepit making memories. The cottage is a short drive from town but far enough away to be under a blanket of stars every night!
