Wonderful destination with plenty of scenery and history to take-in. We loved the smooth check-in process and independence of the location. The cottage was lovely on the outside, the interior was just as described in the listing, and all the amenities and appliances were accessible to our needs. We were able to get to the property with no problems, and check-out without any hiccups. Would highly recommend for anyone interested in a compellingly historic location that can provide insight into one of the most interesting artistic figures of her era.

Christmas at the museum

We stayed at Pope’s cottage during Christmas of 2024 while we were visiting family in the area.The cottage was as advertised. It was clean, comfortable, & the outside was decorated beautifully for Christmas.We loved the tour of the grounds & learning the history of Laura Pope Forester. We would stay at the cottage again.Thanks Michelle for sharing your beautiful place!
