Great little cottage

Stayed for a long weekend with my husband, daughter and little dog. Location can’t be beat! Fenced in yard was a must for our family and was a generous size with fire pit, deck and grill. House was tidy and open, we didn’t cook there but kitchen seemed well appointed. Great responsive owner!

Had a great time.

This property is very nice. Everything was well appointed without being overly done and the kitchen had all the things you would need without being cluttered with a bunch of random appliances that nobody actually uses. Two smallish things that I really appreciated: 1) I was able to connect the tv to my chromecast without any trouble. 2) The lamps in the bedroom have USB charging outlets. Such a nice touch.The house is also in close proximity to downtown. It was nice to be able to walk down there because sometimes Main Street in Davidson can be tough to drive down due to high traffic.Overall, we had a great stay and will hopefully have a chance to stay again.
