We had been traveling for a while when we came to stay at Ida’s Cottage and we immediately felt at home and peaceful. I regretted that we couldn’t stay longer! Plenty of room for everyone (we had 3 young kids with us), big kitchen and living area, and super comfortable beds. The location was great too. Easy drive to Mammoth Cave and a nice, quiet neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again!

The home was charming, decorated as from the 50's or 60's. Each of the teenage boys had their own room{3boys) and my husband and I had the master bedroom downstairs, The beds were very comfortable, and one could block light coming in with the curtains. We were close to Mammoth Caves and Kentucky Down Under. We tried several restaurants close by and spent time in Bowling Green. We came home in the evening and had snacks from the charming kitchen which had all items needed to prepare a meal.

This was a great home away from home. Such a cute place, will definitely be back next year! Beds were very comfortable . Kitchen stocked for any meal you’d like to prepare. Bathroom was also stocked well. Very spacious for family that came to visit, and such a great location close to everything. Downtown shops and eating at the Bistro Cafe is a must do!

Large and comfortable space. Beds and shower were great! Really appreciated the central air and bottled water in the fridge as it was very hot and muggy on the days we were in Glasgow. Off street parking was a bonus. Stewart was a great communicator. Would definitely stay here again!

Absolutely perfect place to stay

This place Iis far better than the pictures! It is by far our favorite place to stay. Every need we might have had already been addressed by having all the supplies we needed on hand. The house was as cute as a button and everywhere you looked was a place where attention and care had been given. We have a daughter who lives in Glasgow, so we will be asking to stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful two days at your place!
