Love this house

This is our second time staying here and we love Sis's Cottage. It's close to town, on a quiet street, and so clean! The weekend we stayed had a lot of Christmas festivities so the proximity to town made it easy to see some fun stuff! With it being pet friendly meant we could take our dog with us and she loved walking up and down the street! We will be back!
