The cottage was perfect! We had a wedding at The Sterling and it was a short drive away. Theresa accommodated an early check-in so we could get ready before the 4:00 wedding. The cottage is adorable inside and out. It has everything you’d need for a comfortable stay. The bed was also really comfortable!In the morning we walked to a diner and then a bakery to grab cookies for the kids at home.We appreciate the ease of check-in/check-out and Theresa was easy to contact!

Cute, comfortable cottage

We booked as a family of 4 as we just needed space to sleep and rest up before daily activities. The online listed showed two roll out beds in the loft and upon arrival, there was only one. After reaching out to the host, a quick response was received and a solution provided. The check-in email also indicated two TVs however there was only one. We did not reach out to host bc for us, it was not needed. They do have a small dehumidifier that needed emptied frequently during our stay. Otherwise the space worked well for us, temperature was great, main bed very comfortable, bathroom functioned perfectly, kitchen well stocked (except we could not locate a pair of scissors). Situated on a quiet street in a quaint small town which is exactly what we were looking for. We would stay here again!
