This cozy cottage was perfect for our little family of 3! Check in was a breeze, the host was very responsive to any questions I had, and I loved all the little homey touches- especially the throw pillows and blankets. We really enjoyed being able to explore the Territory and have access to the amenities! ##### Krystin N. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Reddy R. 27 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Girls’ get-a-way weekend. The cottage was a great location, and very clean. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. Double beds were a bit small for sharing; queens would have been better. Sofa bed was a bit lumpy as well. ##### Reddy R. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025
