Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay at this sweet cottage. We had everything we needed. Grocery store within 3 minutes and everything else we did within 20 minutes. Great location, great space and the most beautiful setting. The sounds of Platte River were so peaceful and it seemed like a hot spot for many of the locals too. We were enjoyed the river everyday! Pretty cool spot! Highly recommend checking it out. Will definitely stay again. And not to forget, Katy was awesome! Communication was great and appreciated. Thank you.
