The cottage had everything we needed and was very clean. We really appreciated the beach passes. We loved the backyard and had a fire. The location of the cottage was amazing, we walked to the beach, restaurants and stores. We would definitely stay at Michelle’s cottage again! Thank you. ##### Stacey R.

Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful stay in a quaint cottage We loved that the neighborhood was quiet and walkable.Our favorite part was the backyard - a serene place with flowers, fenced in private and with a grill and fire pit. We were able to purchase firewood nearby for 5.00 a bundle and had a fire every night. There were solar lights that came on a twilight and we could also plug in lights that beautifully surrounded the fence. Also, Michelle, the owner, was responsive to any questions within minutes. Her mother lives across the street and was so friendly and helpful. We had fun shopping in downtown Ridgeway and purchased our meals at a nearby grocery story and a convenient wine store. ##### Jane W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Naomi L.
