The cozy cottage lived up to its name. Very comfortable and welcoming. We cooked all our meals at the house. The gas grill was wonderful and most seasonings we use were available. We enjoyed our week there. Hannibal, St Louis, and Springfield were an easy day trip away.
The cable was missing local stations, ABC, CBS and NBC so the the Olympics were not available, but they did have Netflix available for movie nights. The beds were very comfortable and the shower had decent pressure. The extra fridge in the garage was a pleasant surprise. We were able to keep water and sodas cold without filling the house fridge, and the ice maker kept up with all 5 of us.
I would highly recommend this cottage for families spending time in this area. My only suggestion for the owners would be to add more place settings in dishware, and a couple more serving bowls and maybe a platter. The dishwasher was out of order, so we mostly used paperplates and glasses, so the dishes there was enough.
