Pros: -Clean -Adorable home, nicely renovated -Comfortable beds -Did not cook any meals, but the kitchen seemed well stocked and it is beautiful. -Furniture and decor attractive and just right -Cozy -Sound machines in bedrooms -Easy to find and gain access Cons: -Only 1 roll of toilet paper (and not even a full roll) provided -The cheapest (literally Dollar Tree) 3-in-1 shampoo/conditioner/body wash- yuck. -Though the neighborhood seemed tidy and safe, the house directly across the street is SKETCHY. Definitely witnessed some questionable activities over there. But that’s not something that can be helped by the owner. -Although the home felt very clean overall, there were some stray pet hairs on the sheets and particularly on the spare pillows in the closet, such that we opted not to use those. For non-pet people, that’s a little off-putting. -The 1 bathroom is TINY. But, that can’t be helped and we knew there was only 1 bathroom going in. Overall, great rental. Would stay again.

Needed a place to stay while we were in town for my wedding. We had our dogs and it was the perfect place with a fenced in yard. The house was even better in person, super cozy and clean!

Great location. Quiet neighborhood. Near to anything you need & to Downtown. Fantastic bedding. ❤️I slept so good. Clean place. More supplies than normal. Usually only have roll of toilet paper that is on the holder, same for paper towels, but here there was a supply. That way if you didn’t get to store for a day or so it was ok. There was a completely supplied coffee station😱. If you have bad knees or have a hard time with steps you will definitely need a cane. There are only 2 steps to get onto the porch(they are a little thick) and one to get in the house. I have a hard time with steps but it was doable. Would recommend this place in a heartbeat.

Meadows Cottage is an absolute gem! Everything you need for your stay is there including some snacks and coffee. The house is spotless, welcoming and comfortable. Other reviews have said how comfortable the beds are and that is not an understatement - what great night's sleep. I am so glad Meadows Cottage was available for our trip and hope it will be available for our next visit! Also, the neighborhood is very quiet. Stephanie made sure everything was satisfactory and available if needed. We greatly enjoyed our stay.
