The unit was very clean and well stocked with linens, extra towels, snacks, bathroom necessities and such. The area was very nice and we enjoyed the nice grounds. The reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the bathroom window had no cover and the bed wasn’t that comfortable to me. But with that said, I absolutely do recommend Mills Cottage.

Quaint and Relaxing

My family and I wanted to have fun during the day at all the Disney parks but was interested in staying somewhere quaint and quiet in the evenings. This place was perfect and we would recommend it to everyone. Great price, great location and great host!

Perfect getaway!

Upon arriving nice neighborhood drive was seemed small but on our last day with multiple cars on lot it was easy to get out. I was impressed by the whole property, but the vegetation was by far my favorite thing the pool was easy to find there was so many things to keep us occupied if we needed. Owner was quick to respond and even checked in with us. Would definitely stay again!

The lovely Cottage

Das Mills Cottage liegt traumhaft und ist von kleinen Seen und einer tollen Wohngegend umgeben. Es ist eine Ruheoase und doch zentral gelegen! Das Haus ist ausgestattet mit allem was man benötigt und liebevoll eingerichtet. Der Gastgeber antwortet zügig und ist sehr hilfsbereit. Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen und können das Cottage jedem weiterempfehlen.
