Great stay! Hosts provided a variety of snacks and food, which was very nice. Also responsive to questions with good communication. Beautiful property!
This was our second stay at Aunt Connie’s, and it was as good or better than the first. Just the perfect size for my spouse and me. We will return, again!

Excellent guests. Very nice people and respected the property.
It is such a wonderful cottage and the hosts are great! We had a really nice time. The cottage is very clean, cozy and inviting, and it is located on a beautiful property. The hosts offered snacks/food, which was so thoughtful and kind. We were able to bring our 2 dogs along with us too. We would absolutely stay again and will certainly recommend to others.
The home was clean. The surrounding property was beautiful as I was on the verge of bursting into its spring glory.Don was available, though we were busy with college visits and not around too much.The bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay at Aunt Connie’s Cottage again.

Excellent guests Didnt get to visit much but seemed like very nice people and left the cottage very clean Welcome back any time
Nice place, off the beaten track. Lovely grounds including a good-looking pond. Unfortunately, weather was crummy so we didn’t hang out outside. Generous snacks and breakfast items. All good.
The cottage is amazing! It's close to everything while still being in a quiet, beautiful location. Charming, so full of amenities, and I can't say enough about the comfy beds. We travel a lot and sleep is crucial and hard to find, and we all slept so well here!! The fridge was stocked!! Everything you could want for breakfast, and so many wonderful snacks (salty and sweet!) Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.
Loved staying at this beautifully decorated, clean, charming, quiet, safe and comfortable cottage. It was perfect in every way! I will stay here again!
My boyfriend, dogs, and I had such a pleasant time here! The property was beautiful and the cottage was so quaint! I felt very welcomed and will come back here again.
My sister and I enjoyed bringing in the New Year in this comfortable, cozy cottage. Eileen does a fantastic job with making sure the cabin feels like home. The area is nice and quiet and Eileen an accommodating host. If I find myself back in the area, we’ll definitely be staying again.
We had a really good time here. It was very clean and felt very much like a family cottage that you can go spend time at to get away. It was situated somewhat in between Oberlin and Wellington, where both towns have a lot of good food and things to do. Beautiful property with a pond and some nice pavilions and the like. We had a great time!
Cuter than the pictures, relaxing and quiet sums up my experience. And the snacks - the best variety of any place I've ever stayed.
