The cottage was cozy and very welcoming. The bed was super comfy and the shower had lots of hot water. Plenty of coffee and fixings to have a cozy cup while reading. It was a very relaxing stay though only for a night. Would recommend. It's an amazing little cottage. There is a question about the pool? I didn't see one, the spa sounded nice but wasn't open when I arrived so I gave it a 3 star as I couldn't really say.

The cottage was perfect! We had a wedding at The Sterling and it was a short drive away. Theresa accommodated an early check-in so we could get ready before the 4:00 wedding. The cottage is adorable inside and out. It has everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. The bed was also really comfortable!In the morning we walked to a diner and then a bakery to grab cookies for the kids at home.We appreciate the ease of check-in/check-out and Theresa was easy to contact!
