The location is excellent perfect. The decor is very well laid out very nice. Downfall shower in the bathroom is way too small. Need additional towel racks or hooks for hanging. Access for the doors were difficult to open and old. Especially the front door would not open all the way. Only one frying pan not enough cooking utensils. Bedrooms need additional hooks or something to hang clothes on.

Awful experience.
We have stayed at A LOT of VRBO properties and this,sadly, was certainly an unacceptable stay. We booked for 2 nights - showed up late (due to my work schedule) - and walked into a bit of a nightmare. Established (ie: long lived) cobwebs in all of the windows and on the fans, spiders and bees everywhere (alive and dead), no hot water, no working TV, uncomfortable furniture (including brick like pillows for the bed), etc. Needkess to say, we left immediately the next morning - would have left upping checking in but it was already 1130pm and we had nowhere else to stay. Def don’t like giving poor reviews but want to ensure others don’t encounter the same experience - camping would have been more luxurious.

Nice Little Get Away
The cottage was cute and comfortable. There was a little snafu with check in as guests who arrived before us took the cottage we were supposed to have and we ended up with the one next to it. It's hard to give the cottage a fair review because we stayed in a different one but by the pictures of this cottage it does seem to be a bit nicer than the one we stayed in. Great location!
