Fall foliage wonderland

We hit our stay exactly right- and got to stay in a beautiful, well equipped rental in the middle of a beautiful wooded area with every color of leaf surrounding us. Fantastic view from the sunroom. Great communication. Would stay here again.

Fantastic Home Away From Home

This carriage house was fantastic. We loved everything about this place. There were lots of little things that made our stay extra special. The backyard was so relaxing as well.

Perfect

I have been coming to Guilford for 2 decades to visit family. I have stayed in every hotel / motel / VRBO / etc in a 20 mile radius. Nothing compares to the Carriage House! It is well decorated, clean, has an idyllic property, every amenity you could ask for and the owner is one of the nicest people I have encountered. I will always look to book this property in the future if I am fortunate enough to find it available!

Wedding weekend

Host is fantastic, Rebecca was very helpful and accommodating in all aspects. The cottage was very nice, few more outlets would be nice, but overall very comfy and inviting. The driveway could benefit from a few lights as we used it at might and it was a bit scary.

Cleaning was impressive!

Cleaning was impressive! House was very calm, spacious, and they had all extra towels, bath robes etc. everything was very good to feel comfortable. However there are some cons as well, unfortunately cooking stuff was not really good and enough, luckily we had some stuff with us. So, if you want to cook, you should be prepared. We were also expecting to have some nice walking area around home, but there was not, so if you expect to do hiking within walking distance, this is not it.
