Highly recommended. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Wendi D. 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location The cottage is adorable! Our experience was Ok, but the kitchen was not well appointed. Typically, there is some basic essentials stocked in the kitchen but there were none. We had no coffee as it was a Keurig and when I asked about the coffee maker I was not told we needed to bring coffee (they should have had a couple of "pods" available as we don't use a Keurig), no plastic wrap or ziplocks, and there were no sharp knives, just dinner knives etc. The bathroom has NO privacy. You do not want to go stay there with another couple as you can see in the bathroom---it is a barn door and offers NO privacy. There might as well not be a door on it. We were disappointed as our overall opinion is that it needs more work and additions to make it really enjoyable. ##### Wendi D.
