Loved being surrounded by flowers in bloom; enjoyed morning coffee in outside space. Interior lovely with well chosen antiques/vintage appropriate items. I was worried about white couches with a hubby and a teenager, but there were covers for protection. We did not cook or needed a kitchen for meals, just made coffee, but could have easily done so in well equipped kitchen. No room for three to sit in kitchen, but did not need to.

Feb 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Adorable house on beautiful property This cottage is adorable and charming on a large hillside property. I was in the house for a month. The owner is lovely and accessible The fenced yard is perfect for traveling with a pet and the walks down the large hill to the stream are even better. The house is comfortable as is the bed in the front bedroom. Things that make the house four star instead of five star are the mediocre quality kitchen furnishings, a noisy sump pump, mismatched and somewhat older bed linens and towels, less than abundant hot water, and an address that makes receiving deliveries in any many very challenging (too long to explain but trust me that I spent a lot of time directing UberEats, Instacart, UPS, and FedEx). Despite these imperfections, I loved my stay and would stay again if I was in the area. (With the hope that the owner would elevate the comfort and raise rices accordingly.) I’m rooting for this charming house to succeed even more than it already has. ##### Chele H. Stayed 25 nights in Feb 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Cassandra C. Oct 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Great location, could use a few tweeks The location is great, the cottage cozy with enough space for 4 adults (not sure 6 would be comfortable), but there are a few reasons I gave the review a 4: 1) the hot water is so hot my husband got literal burns doing dishes not realizing the water would get that hot 2) When we arrived there were no lights anywhere. The lanterns on the stone wall by the road werent on, the porch light wasnt on, at least one inside light wasnt on. It was very dark and hard to see. 3) So SO much furniture for such a tiny place. There was furniture in every doorway making getting around the cottage very awkward. We ended up moving things to get through doorways and none of us are fat. 4) Poor arrival instructions. The welcome email does not state how to get a key (the front door was left open), or how to connect to wifi (I had to email for password). There was also no exit instructions. We did the dishes and took the trash out, which really for a $300 cleaning fee was good enough in our opinion. 4) More blankets for the beds now that it is colder would be nice. Or a throw or two for the couches to snuggle up and watch TV would be good. But overall the stay was excellent. There is laundry on property making cleaning easy. It is close to Rt 8 making getting around CT very easy. The property owner is very communicative, so if there’s an issue she responds quickly (we had no issue beyond not knowing the door would be left open and not knowing the wifi PW). Also, they get a half star for having a naughty lightswitch which I appreciated. David is one of my favorite statues. Thanks for the great stay :) ##### Cassandra C.

It was very comfortable with a good bed, lcosy living room and a very well equipped kitchen. It is surrounded by a nice garden, lovely for sitting out in the sun. It is located within walking distance of Watertown centre., where there are good food shops, restaurants and bars. We ate at the local Thai restaurant where the food was outstanding. Faye and Paul were very welcoming and helpful with advice about the local area. We had a lovely day walking at the Black Rock State Park which is a few minutes drive from the property. We also visited Hammonasset , a lovely place on the coast. ##### Kevin B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George H. Sep 21, 2018 #### The Greatest From the time I set foot in the Cottage I was at Home. Everything was there for my perfect Stay for my 50th Class Reunion. My Plan was to have some people over and make some music and give them some great food. Everything I needed was there for the preparation of a Wonderful Night with some of my Class Members of Darien High School Class of 1968... We set up Band Practice in the Living room of the Cottage and there was plenty of room, Even with the full size Bass that my Friend came with to get some great sound without amplification. We also had a Large Roland Electric Piano and two more acoustic Guitars. We planed and Ate for a few Hours and I invited our hosts over to hear our music, They seemed to enjoy what we were doing. I had Family and Friends who live in the area so my visits to them were very easy for me to make. I have stayed in many places and I will say this was tops for me. You will not find a more comfortable Home away from Home then the Cottage in Watertown. Ct. Gorgeous in every Way.The only down fall of the trip was I had to Leave... ##### George H. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melissa B., College Corner, OH Sep 12, 2018 #### Super cute place! My dog and I enjoyed our stay here. The house is small but really cute and cozy. The backyard is nice and shady, with a pretty stone wall surrounding it. Faye, the owner, is really helpful -- she was very responsive to every request! This house is very close to the main house but from the back yard you can't even tell (you can see it from the front). Feels somewhat secluded. Faye also encouraged us to walk around the rest of the property (gorgeous!) A few things you should be aware of: - the hot water is REALLY hot once it gets going! Which is awesome but be careful with little kids - in the bathroom, the hot and cold is reversed - there is some poison ivy in the backyard so if you have kids show them what it looks like so they can avoid it - there is no central air but the window unit does a great job of keeping the place cool - if you are having problems with the internet, call Faye and she can reset it for you. I was able to use my phone as a hot spot without any problems, though; cell service was great. - the stone wall surrounding the back yard is fairly short in places (4'?) so if your dog is a fence-jumper you may want to keep them on a long line or bring a tall exercise pen to keep them away from the wall. There are lots of parks and hiking trails nearby so if you bring your dog there will be plenty for you both to do!! ##### Melissa B.
