May 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location Cottage was clean and well stocked. Location is super easy to get to everything and although right in town relaxing as the quaint town is quit in the evening. The property manager was very helpful and accommodating with great communication. Enjoyed the stay. ##### Missy C. Stayed 19 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aubrey W. Sep 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful!! We stayed for the night of our wedding and it was perfect. Romantic, comfortable and private. So many cute details, I could tell there was a lot of thought put in by the host. Definitely recommend! ##### Aubrey W. Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rhonda L. Mar 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property This was an amazing place to stay. It was inviting from the moment I walked in. The aroma, the cleanliness, the decor even the little touches were perfect. The Retreat was so cozy and relaxing. It was very private even for being right in the middle of town and close to everything. Jamie is an amazing hostess with great communication to her guests. She has little touches and extras through out her rental. I stayed 5 days and even worked from there. No issues at all, it has strong wifi. I definitely recommend this place and hope to be a returning guest! ##### Rhonda L. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Richard G. Jun 20, 2024 Disliked: Check-in, listing accuracy #### Misleading advertisement. There was no kitchette, no one informed us how to use the goofy remote for the climate control. It is not good to be uncomfortably hot or cold. That so called house, has the smallest refrigerator I have ever seen. ##### Richard G.
