Don't miss this gem!
This property exceeded our expectations. A beautiful property and the hosts made it even better for us - very friendly and accommodating our needs. The full gym was a huge, unexpected bonus. Our cottage was the perfect size for our family of 4. Neighborhood is very safe and quaint. We have already recommended it to others and will definitely stay here again!
