Lovely Pond View
A lovely little home with a great private pond view. Comfortable bed, nice shower, good wyfi and a small kitchen that had everything we needed. My husband and I had a nice long weekend away. We did some walking with our little corgi dog in a couple of local parks and walked up the road to see the cute donkeys at the nearby rescue. We also found some fun local antique shops. All in all a good relaxing stay.

Quiet comfort, perfect getaway location
Beautiful, quiet setting, perfect getaway location! We stayed while traveling for work, and the Pond Getaway was exactly what we needed. It would be perfect for working remotely or for a romantic getaway as well. Exceptionally clean, the Pond Getaway had all the necessities and then some. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was amazing. We loved watching the birds and feeding the fish and turtles too. Excellent communication with Shane, the host. Definitely recommend the Pond Getaway and would 100% stay again.

Pond Retreat
I hesitated on this property due to lack of reviews. After contacting owner I felt more sure about booking and am glad I did. Owner thought of everything-new toothbrushes and paste, name brand soft TP and paper towels, s’mores makings, firewood laid in fire pit with fire starter logs, welcome bottle of champagne, so many more little things. The bed was almost as comfortable as mine at home. The shower was better. The best part was the completely private new deck over looking the pond. Red-wing blackbirds put on a show. Two deer stopped by to watch me watch them. Tree frogs quietly called after dark. I highly recommend this property for couples!

Absolutely adorable!
This little cottage was so enchanting! Beautifully decorated, perfect location, and well appointed. The bed was sooo comfortable, plus the window at the head of the bed allowed me to watch some amazing sunrises over the little pond out back. Shane was excellent; friendly, communicative and helpful! Definitely looking forward to booking there again!
