Charming Mountain Retreat
Songbird Cottage is comfortable, spacious and convenient to town. Retro furniture, stove. Tasteful songbird decor throughout. Meticulously clean.
The beds were quality, TV in all rooms, large open LR with seating for movie night. The Kitchen had good basics. The porch swing was awesome! Our time was too short to enjoy the BBQ or seating in the backyard or the fireplace.
We enjoyed local dining at Ferro's Italian (reservations recommended) and La Casita Mexican restaurant (ask for the jalapeno sauce), El Bueno chocolate is a must visit to experience bean to bar cocoa made on premise. Local brewery looked nice set amongst the trees, but was closed on Tuesday. Found an artstore next to Mountain Pottery if you're interested in art supplies. We visited Monday - Wednesday so not all stores were open.
Songbird Cottage was the perfect accommodation in a nice neighborhood.
