10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
This cozy cottage was perfect for a 3 night stay. The yard is big and private, perfect for games and bonfires. We brought tubes and enjoyed floating by the dock watching the boats go by. The screened in porch was the perfect spot to relax while it rained. The grocery store and restaurants were within walking distance. The host messaged me the day we checked in to make sure we got in ok and to see if we had any questions. I’m happy to report that we didn’t have any issues, but I’m sure a problem would have been dealt with very quickly if we did. Everyone agreed it was a perfect getaway!
