VERY NICE AND CLEAN OLDER HOME CLOSE TO MANY AMENITIES.

This was a nice place close to where we wanted to be. An older home in a nice neighborhood. It was very clean and had all the things we needed to be comfortable. The host were extremely attentive and made sure we made the most of our stay. We did bring a pet and although there was a great big back yard for her to roam, there is no direct access from inside the house to the back yard. The back gate is only a few steps from the side door, however it was not enjoyable having to go out with her in the rain to let her do her business.

Another Great Stay

I almost hesitate to share how much I love this place because I’d hate for it to be fully booked the next time I want to visit. This was our third stay at Castaway Cottage, and it never disappoints. The space is always spotless, cozy, and full of charm. We love the backyard too! Scott, the owner, is wonderful to work with and truly makes you feel right at home. If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would!
