We are located on a quiet commercial side street right off Main Street. Traffic noise is a minimum except for occasional small downtown noises.A privacy fence blocks the property from a grocery store but still gives you easy access to grab some quick groceries. There is light construction during the weekdays taking place on Maple Avenue during 2023 but disturbance has been minimal to our guests.
Interactions with Guests
Emily and Will have been renovating this neglected and adorable cottage over the past year and a half and we are thrilled to finally be your hosts. We tried to create a young and funky but still luxurious space for you to experience small town Mathews in the middle of all the activity. We are available to answer any questions, make recommendations, and can let you know where to find live music while you stay with us. We also provide you a handy guest book and our phone numbers when you arrive.
During hot and dry months we may ask your permission to quickly come water plants to ensure they stay alive if the temperatures are high . We will try to limit this and will always contact you first!
