Amongst the trees, away from it all and at the end of a long private driveway sits Garden Cottage; even though you feel completely secluded you are close to the ocean, parks, maybe stop by one or all of the many gourmet farm stands in the area, just enjoy the deck and the trees or in 18 minutes be at the famous Saturday market and all that Ganges has to offer.

The Garden Cottage was a very cozy retreat for my husband, myself and my mother to spend the weekend while attending a family wedding. We found the cottage very clean with lovely cottage decor containing all the necessary amenities. Surrounded by beautiful forest and morning birdsong, it was a nice quiet getaway we all thoroughly enjoyed.

What a wonderful stay- this place is situated in a forest haven of magic at the top of a hill, moss covered rocks and trees abound. Loved how much light there was inside, beautiful architecture and it feels like a home, not like a rental. Thanks for all of the nice touches! Would love to be back!

Lovely little cottage. Upstairs loft bedroom could be challenging for older guests. Would have liked a large pot for cooking pasta, and an outdoor bar-b-q. Ideal for short stays.
