We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful house!

The house was super neat and super clean! We really enjoyed the location and closeness to Dillard and Clayton. Also, the owner’s were awesome and eager to help in anyway we needed. This was my first VRBO adventure and it was a great experience, I look forward to many more.

Love this place!

This cottage is beautifully decorated for optimal space. Great location, too! The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the VRBO profile differs a bit from what's actually there, but we loved it anyways!

Nice place to stay.

The house was very nice and clean. Close to Clayton. We had trouble with the internet but that should be easy to fix. Very quiet area. We had a great time exploring.
