Steele Magnolia is a welcoming home with many thoughtful touches. From the home made banana bread, to a host that went above and beyond to return a bag we forgot, would certainly stay there again!

The cottage was very welcoming and dog friendly. It's hard to find a place with a fenced area, so your furbaby can potty and walk leash free. Just about anything you could need for the stay was there. I always bring Bailey's food and water bowls and sofa cover for Bailey, we found that Shannon had adrawer with doggie bowls and cover so your furbaby could curl up with you. The neighbors were pretty quiet. We are already planning to go back!
