We had a wonderful stay at Joe’s cottage. The home is tastefully decorated. Linens, beds & towels were clean and comfy, and kitchen had the basics. We did all our dinners there. Could have used a couple small items but was able to make it work with what was there. Lastly, I really appreciated Joe’s prompt replies to my questions. We will stay again when we return to this area! Thank you Joe
