The cottage was well maintained, and as others have said, very clean. The neighborhood was an enclave of quaint cottages with a vintage feeling. There is a small but pretty lake but we didn't use it because we don't have our own boat. The location was great for my husband and me - we took a canal-side bike ride in Boonville, a hike near Moose river, and a kayak on Moose River out of Old Forge. Old Forge is 15-20 minutes away and has restaurants, shopping including groceries and a general store, a movie theater, and an art center. There's a large water park for families too. The cottage owners made us feel very welcome and were easy to reach if needed. The beds were comfortable, and the bedding really nice. The cottage was vintage in style, but with nicely updated bathrooms and internet. We also appreciated heat and A/C. My only suggestion would be put in a back yard patio for grilling and hanging out! The front deck is nice though. Thank you to the hosts for allowing us to rent your cottage!
