We enjoyed our stay at the whimsical cottage. There are a lot of lovely features and touches within the home that made the stay feel special. We didn’t find the bed comfortable but aside from that everything was great. And relaxing on the balcony in the evenings with the firefly shows was a true delight.

This place really is magical. It felt like burrowing away in a cozy and peaceful hideaway while staying here. It's one of those rare places that you'd be okay just relaxing in and not even going out. A lot of the little additions throughout the place really add to the experience. I loved the photograph book of the history of the abode in particular. Ample parking and maintained roads leading to it. Exceptionally clean and maintained.
