We took our dog with us and she loved it! The cottage was perfect for two people and a large dog. We enjoyed the nearby dining and shopping and hanging out by the fireplace. It was too chilly to use the outdoor fire pit but would be great in milder weather. The screen porch has a lot of seating also. So perfect ! ##### laura g.

Very spacious with living and dining areas. The property is well appointed, although I will note that there is no dishwasher. That was not an issue for us as we dined out most afternoons and evenings. I would stay there again. The property and neighborhood was very dog friendly.

Has a wood burning fireplace which is very cosy. I did not realize it is actually the downstairs/basement of a larger home. It could use a spring refresh, the toilet seat is very loose, there is a water leak stain in the ceiling, and some holes in the walls. The kitchen trash still had the past guests trash and food in it. Bedroom ceiling fan light does not work. ##### tracy C. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim C.
