Enjoy a double bed with a high end mattress as well as a desk and comfortable office chair ideal for remote work.

From the cottage you are only 2 blocks away from everything historic downtown has to offer. The walk to popular downtown with all its eateries, breweries, shops and bars is idyllic with beautiful historic homes and majestic oak trees. The lakefront and Riverwalk are also in walking or biking distance. You will love the unique urban lifestyle this cottage provides!

Would stay again

This cute cottage was the perfect place to stay for the weekend when attending a wedding at a nearby venue. It was clean, comfortable, and offered the perfect amount of space for 2 adults. Check in was easy and the hosts were kind and communicative. If I’m ever back in the area, I would definitely stay here again!

NO FLUSH - Don't stay here.

If we were staying longer we would have complained while we were there. We only had 2 nights and didn't want to waste our time with this issue and totally ruin our stay. They have a cute little sign in the bathroom about what not to flush. Jokes on us, because you literally can't flush the toilet water, let alone the things on their sign. They clearly knew they had plumbing issues with the sign in the bathroom. We had to plunge the toilet every time it was used. We resorted to using bathrooms in local businesses while we were there. Any VRBO should have properly working toilet in it.
