We had a great time staying here! The house was perfect for our family of four including two small children. The amenities were great, Tracy answered all of our questions, and the home was comfortable. The house was clean and equipped with everything we could have needed and more. Great location and convenient for us to get everywhere we needed to go. Highly recommend! Would definitely stay here again if we are back in the area!

Great clean and quiet location close to town

The Cottage was perfect! Clean, so comfortable and the design and care put into it makes the small footprint live large. Very comfortable for three adults in our family. The kitchen has everything - even an InstantPot. Super close to town. We walked everywhere and hardly used our rental car. We would definitely stay here again.
