REVIEWS:
"They thought of everything! I stayed the entire month of February and every time I had a need, they already had it in the cottage. I truly loved my stay and plan to return! A few of my favorite features: Motion detected low-lit kitchen lights, perfect for a relaxing midnight snack. Easy-to-use Roku TVs in every room (even a Nintendo switch). Remote-controlled lights and fans. ❤︎ Insanely comfortable mattresses! Absolutely breathtaking sunrise and sunset views! Yard so big you can skip the treadmill and walk along the fence for exercise. All the kitchen essentials and beyond provided, modern with the 1950s flare, super cute! Highly recommended! Loved it and Suzanne is an amazing host!" - Anna, March 2025
