Graduation home base
Grandma's comfy cottage gave us a fabulous place to be together for my daughters graduatuin weekend. We had a relaxing Saturday. The location allowed our daughterand her friend to visit and walk to local shops. The space allowed some to play games while others relaxed watching tv. Would recommend and may be back considering she has no plans to move yet!

Fabulous stay!
This was our second time staying at grandmas cottage. The hosts are incredible with having our needs met. It’s an easy checkin and checkout process. The location is great and the home is very comfortable. These grandparents will stay again when we want to visit our grandchildren that live in the same neighborhood. Thanks for a perfect stay!

Great Holiday Stay
I booked this for family to stay at during the holidays. Ed was a great communicator about some updates going on at the house and made sure everything would work for us still. The house was perfect for hosting a large group and had a very well stocked kitchen.

The house was nice and in a great location. We had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and most everything was clean. I took off one star because of the dusty dining room table and kitchen.

Quick stay
This house was perfect for our needs. We were in town for a funeral, and this was exactly what we needed for some wind down time after family/funeral events. Road can be a little loud at night, but was not bothersome for my kids- therefore not bothersome to me. Main room seats 7 easily and comfortably. Hardest thing was appeasing the 1 yo, 8 yo, 9 yo and 4 30-something adults on one TV. Check in was easy and exactly as described in the emails. We had no need to communicate with host- that’s a good thing. If needed, would stay again without question.

Cute house
The house was very cute and quaint. We appreciated how clean it was and the host accommodating a last minute change in our dates. We were not fond of the location. We also did it find the yard/fire pit to be usable as it was very dirty (table and chairs) and yard had no privacy or warmth. Not to mention the tree with falling walnuts every few seconds.
