Weekend Away
We were looking for a quiet retreat away. This cottage was fantastic! Clean and very nice. Perfect location for getting out in nature as well as close to town and too much further from a larger town if required. We had a relaxing weekend and would definitely visit again!

Cute cottage
We had a great time at the cottage. It was a short drive to Bell Smith Springs. There are a few things that I wish the cottage had - a little bit more space in the second bedroom and a grill. The host was very easy to communicate with and the wifi works well. If you want to use the oven, be prepared for the smoke alarm to go off even though the oven is very clean. Otherwise, it was great for us and we absolutely loved the seating options on the front deck. The entrance is a little hard to find but after getting their once, it's not hard to find.
