We loved the location right next to the trails. Walked to the Wooden Nickel and a short drive to the Cabin. Only used the toaster, but the kitchen was well stocked. Sophie was great!We will definitely stay there again for long stays. Not economical for shorter stays because of the cleaning fee.

Holiday Happy

Spent three weeks visiting local family. We were pleased with all aspects of the home. While an older home, it has been nicely modernized and very clean. Sophie our host is amazing. So kind, attentive, and friendly. We made a few minimal suggestions on supplies during our stay and they were followed by an immediate response and resolution. Could not ask for better service. Location is convenient to the city and local communities. Two parking areas made it easy.

We loved your home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in your charming home! It was exceptionally clean and organized, with so many extra things to improve our stay. All of the dishes, silverware, pots, etc were new, which is quite often not the case in these cottages. Nice towels and bedding, too. The owner's attention to detail surely provided us with a carefree stay and a terrific setting for a much-needed getaway!
