Very cozy! We had a great time staying here. Excellent location -- a very quiet neignborhood and super close to downtown. Well appointed with thoughful touches. Great for a couple.
Location is a nice easy stroll from downtown. The unit is well appointed for a short or long visit. We stayed 3 nights and it was perfect. Owners are very easy to work with.
Beautiful cute cottage, perfect size for 2 people. Clean and very close to downtown. Hosts are courteous and responsive. I highly recommend.

We were a little disappointed that the nicer amenities were for the people who rented the house. There’s a two car carport,driveway and we had to park on the street even though the person in the house only had one car in the driveway the whole time we were there. The outside chairs for the quest house were not cleaned but the six seat table and chairs under a canopy for the rental house looked nice but again it was for whoever rented the house. The bathroom is much smaller than you might expect.at 5’4” and 135 lbs I had to sit on the toilet a little sideways because the shower is right in front of it. It’s not a terrible place just wasn’t what we were expecting.

Thank you so much for your feedback—we truly appreciate you sharing your experience. I’m sorry to hear that parts of your stay didn’t meet your expectations.
The carport and larger outdoor seating area are reserved for the main house, but I understand how that could feel disappointing, and we’ll work on making that clearer in our listing. I also sincerely apologize that the guest house outdoor seating wasn’t as clean as it should have been—that’s not the standard we aim for, and we’ll be addressing it right away.
Thank you as well for your note about the bathroom size, we understand it is compact and we’ll review how we can better communicate this for future guests.
We really value your feedback and hope to provide an even better experience moving forward!
