Our stay!

Our son’s baseball tournament brought us to Marion and we couldn’t be happier with our time at the cozy cottage. From the pool table, to the darts, to the snack basket my kids were so happy. I appreciated decor, extra space and attention to detail. Definitely recommend!

We had an excellent stay at Cecilia's! Home had everything we needed! From the comfortable bed, pool table, and super cute covered outside patio.
