The place is beautiful the host was very nice and definitely will be visiting again!
Everything was just what we needed for our 20th anniversary! Close to downtown, restaurants, and amenities! It was so peaceful and relaxing! Loved the decor and the view! Great place to stay!
This place went far beyond our expectations. Perfect location and very clean. Fridge was stocked with drinks and one of the cabinets stocked with snacks. Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Laurel. Great job to Lee Boyette. Thanks.
Perfect spot right outside of town to get away from the hustle of a city and yet still close enough if something is needed in town. Very hospitable host and property is very clean and set up for relaxation. Thank you for the great stay!
This was a truly peaceful, relaxing retreat yet close to downtown Laurel. The owner has thought of every detail to ensure that you have a really wonderful stay! Would highly recommend it as one of the best!
The property was perfect. It was close to the ball park for my daughter’s tournament and had plenty to occupy my son such as fishing and exploring. The cabin was spacious and exceptionally clean. The host provided extras such as snacks, drinks, and grilling meats that were just icing on the cake. We can’t wait to stay here again.
Cottage is more beautiful and comfortable than pictures can capture. Peaceful and serene with every amenity imaginable. Lee is a super host extraordinaire!
Beautiful property, beautiful home. Our stay was peaceful, private, relaxing. We caught a few fish, played games, enjoyed great snacks left by our host. We will be back ♥️
The Woodland Cottage is amazing. The host thought of everything we possibly needed from stocking the refrigerator with drinks, fishing pole and worms, and a green egg for grilling. This place is truly a retreat.
The property is amazing!! It starts with the wonderful drive from the gate to the cottage and the pond is outstanding. The cottage is immaculate and is stocked with everything you would need. We can’t wait to come back!
This is our second time staying at the property - it was just as good as it was the first time. Property is very quiet and comfortable. It is located minutes away from downtown Laurel and about the same distance to the newer areas of Laurel where there are chain restaurants and grocery stores (including Walmart). The host is very nice and very helpful. We will be back.
This place was wonderful! The location was perfect and the setting was outstanding. The house was very clean and comfortable and was looking right out on a pond. Lee was a fantastic host and made us feel right at home! Had snacks for us, fishing poles, and worms! Could not have asked for a better place to stay!
Our Christmas holiday with family was made complete with the wonderful accommodations in Laurel provided by Lee. From the welcoming holiday decorations to the charm and amenities of the cottage design, we felt right at home. It’s a very special place and the best compliment I can give is that we hope to return again and again.
We stayed here over the weekend and truly didn’t want to leave. Every detail—from the thoughtful amenities to the cozy extras—made the space feel welcoming and familiar, like stepping into a home curated with care. The kitchen was well-stocked, the linens were soft, and even the smallest touches felt intentional.But the real magic? The pond and the view. Morning coffee by the water, golden hour reflections, and quiet evenings watching the light shift across the landscape—it was absolutely breathtaking. If you're looking for a place to rest, reflect, or simply enjoy nature's beauty with all the comforts of home, this is it.
This property is the cleanest and most comfortable property we have ever stayed in. The host provides way more than what you will find in any other location. There were drinks, snacks,coffee. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked as was the laundry. If you want a place to relax and unwind this is it.
Pictures don’t do this justice! Such a cute place!! I’ve never been to a place that stocked the fridge with drinks and condiments and the cabinets with snacks! Definitely recommend…10/10!!
We could not have enjoyed our stay more… other than if we had stayed longer. The host has thought of so many extra touches, even a Green Egg grill… which we used to grill steaks and eat in one night while admiring the pond and scenery. He even left my husband some fishing worms and fishing poles. If you choose this cottage, you should not be disappointed.
Lee, the Cabin on the Hidden Pond was fabulous! The drive into the gate and down the lane was so picturesque!
Everything was exactly like your photos. Your thoughtfulness of the treats and milk so kind. We loved the town and people of Laurel. Great places to eat and lots to enjoy! I got some beautiful pictures of fog above the pond on two mornings. We loved our time there. Got lots of walking on lane and trails. So quiet and peaceful.
Thanks again! Carolyn & Gary Schoof
