The cottage was so nice. Beds were very comfortable, linen soft, home very clean, and just a nice place to stay. We loved the community and would recommend this place to anyone who just wants to visit the area and see the Art Encounter and shop in the stores. It was very close to town square.

The little cottage was perfect for our week stay. The cottage was clean and well stocked; we cooked several meals inside . The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The coffee bar was a great addition to our stay. We loved sitting out on the deck in the evenings, it was so relaxing.I would love to go stay there again. The host and accommodations were “awesome.”
