Nice and Convinient
Very clean, very comfortable. Nice kitchen, nice appliances. Roomy. Nice bath & shower. Nice view. In a neighborhood but feels like you're in the woods! Our only complaints would be that the primary mattress is kind of soft for an old body like mine (slept in the extra bedroom most nights to avoid a backache), the TV is not connected to anything (also unsuccessful in our attempts to stream from our devices), and the kitchen & paper products were sparsely equipped (although we knew we'd have to provide our own stuff as we were staying three weeks.) But all-in-all this was a very nice place. We would definitely stay here again and may indeed do so since our son & family live in the neighborhood. Recommended.

Comfortable little spot
Lovely, cozy and well-maintained cottage. Great for my child and I while we adjusted to the area to begin her new school year in a new place. The WiFi was unreliable; we managed with cell phone hotspot for work and entertainment, as needed. The kitchen had full sets of dishes and flatware, aKeurig on the counter with a few courtesy k-cup pods. Sugar, salt, pepper and additional seasonings available. Overall happy with our experience and would stay again. Thank you!
