About this property

Special and charming. Quite, clean, close and comfortable. Everyone loves it..:>

We have made this cottage just like we would want it for our vacation stay. We've taken our experiences with vacation rentals and learned. Much time and love has gone into making sure all the little things are just right for your visit....:)
1.25 acres of historical peaceful charm. Walk the grounds or enjoy the golf hole designed, built, and played on by Harvie Ward himself. He was an amazing amateur golfer who won US, British, and Canadian Opens. Harvie's distinguished playing career was followed by coaching his star pupil Payne Stewart.
The Cottage is 900 square feet and is practically laid out to seem very spacious. Recently updated with all new amenities. The perfect place to sit and read "The Match", which was written about Harvie and the day the game of golf changed forever. There's also golf, tennis, horses, history, and great food and drink nearby.
Great, almost unbelievable location....The Village is a very short walk.

I absolutely loved this cottage. Cozy, clean, well furnished. Kitchen well stocked. And the bed was soooo comfortable!! I slept better than at home. Location is a large lot surrounded with pines. Each morning I was met by a family of deer in the front lawn. This was my getaway from everyone except my best friend, who I visited. I WILL BE BACK!!
