The house was clean. Courtney (the host) checked with us a few times to make sure everything was good and was there to quickly respond to any questions we had. It’s a great location within walking distance to several restaurants and Dora Lake. It was a quiet area and it felt great relaxing in the hot tub. I definitely recommend this property to anyone

The cottage was lovely and the beds were SO COMFORTABLE. Communication was excellent and the host had everything stocked that you could possibly need. We loved the covered patio and sat outside, watched tv while drinking a cup of coffee. Perfect!

This is a great property. The house was very clean and had everything I needed and the area was very quiet. Fully fenced back yard was great for my fur babies. Host was quick to respond, checked on me a couple of times to see if I needed anything and she was very accommodating when I had to change my plans a couple of times. I will definately stay here again if I'm in this area. Highly recommend this property.
