Sweet Cottage Close to Town

We enjoyed staying in this sweet and cozy cottage surrounded by farmland, but still close to town. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and nicely appointed with everything we needed for our week long stay. We loved staying here and would recommend it to anyone staying in the Olympia area.
