Mother’s Day Getaway
My Mother and I booked this cute little cottage for our Mother’s Day Getaway. The cottage was everything it said it was and so much more! Kate is a wonderful host and the cottage is one of the best VRBOs I’ve ever reserved in all my years traveling! So welcoming and had everything we could ever need and want, we enjoyed a fire on the patio and had the best surprise for our weekend watching the Northern Lights dance across the sky above us! Definitely a trip we will always remember.

Fantastic!
Kate & Tom's cottage is very clean and very comfortable with many personal touches. The location in a very quiet neighborhood with walking distance to the lake is fantastic. The large fenced yard was wonderful for the dogs to roam. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

A Great Week!
We had a great stay at the Minnow. The cottage was small but big enough for the two of us. It was well stocked with so many little extras that you wouldn't expect. The neighbors were friendly and there were many towns close by to explore. Overall a relaxing.place to stay!

Loved the cottage
So convenient for going to the lake to swim! House was perfect for my husband, myself, and son. Location was close enough to town to eat out if we wanted, but far enough out in the county to not have to listen to sounds of a typical city. Beautiful area. Hope to go back next year!

Stay at the best place ever!
My wife and I stayed at Kate's place with our dog over the holiday weekend and it was everything you could imagine - this place is amazing! The entire property is stocked with everything you need - from cookware, to linens, games, a fire pit - a huge fenced in property for kids/dogs to run around in and everything you could imagine - it's just such a wonderful place to stay. Kate is super responsive and kind - any questions that we had were answered in a super prompt time. The property itself is clean and comfortable, we felt right at home. We enjoyed our time at the sandy beach near the property, the walks around the area were peaceful and the locals around the area were so kind. We cannot wait to be back again - one of the best places you can stay in the area and such a fantastic spot! Looking forward to the next time we're there! Thanks again!

Cozy Cottage in a Quiet Neighborhood
We really enjoyed our stay at the Minnow. Kate, the host, was more than accommodating, kind, and helpful. The cottage itself is small but clean and nice. Everything is well organized and efficient, which was great! Also, there were so many amenities, we felt right at home. The neighborhood is very nice and incredibly peaceful. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay there and have no complaints. Definitely would recommend The Minnow to folks.

Nice Little Place
From the included pictures, I was under the impression it was on the lake. Unfortunately I did not read the description close enough. I used the filter of "lakefront" (or something like that) when searching for places to go, but VRBO failed to not include this property. Otherwise, it was a great place to stay for a few days!

Peaceful, Comfy, and Relaxing "Mini"
I'm a senior and stayed at this comfy little cottage with my little dog. Beautiful hydrangeas around the front of the house and a lovely patio highlight the fenced property. Inside it was spotless, comfortably furnished, and the host thought of everything you would need to prepare a meal, watch television, read a book, or enjoy a barbecue on the patio. I slept well, and my dog enjoyed the yard so much that it was hard to get him back inside. The host left a bottle of wine, snacks, coffee K-cups, and plenty of fresh drinking water- greatly appreciated since the tap water has a lot of iron in it. Neighbors are nice and friendly, and I felt very safe at all times. The fish fry at Reilly's was a treat as well as fresh baked goods that I bought at the bakery in Princeton- both businesses recommended by the host. The lake was only a few minutes walk away and the water was clear and inviting. I highly recommend a short drive to the county park nearby, where there is a beach, boat launch, and picnic benches. If you are looking for some time to relax and reset, this is the place for you to be in early Fall. I highly recommend the Minnow and I am planning to return. It was the nicest, cleanest, most comfortable rental I have ever stayed in, and I've rented quite a few. Very dog friendly, too! Thank you!

Exceeded Expectations
We had an incredible weekend at The Minnow. The cottage is just perfect, well decorated and a great size of a couples getaway with a big dog. The bed is wonderfully comfortable. The little things about the cabin put it over the edge, such as helpful lighting, well spaced shower and bathroom, plentiful counter space and cozy couch. The pourch and patio was a wonderful addition that really add to the space. The fenced in yard is perfect for a dog, our pooch loved to run around, something she doesn't get to do in the city. It's a very do pet friendly pad. There are also amazing restaurants in the area just made our stay phenomenal! Follow Kate's recommendations, she's spot on! Nearby hikes were beautiful. Kate and Mavis were great hosts, adding a little extra stuff to our stay. We would love to return! FYI the picture on VRBO do not do the property justice! You will not be disappointed with a stay at The Minnow!
