Well maintained little cottage
Check in was easy, the front door lock gave the cleaner a hard time so the owner let me know right away how to get into the key box if the code to the door didn’t work. The place was a little smaller than I anticipated and I’m glad there was only three of us, but we didn’t mind it. Only minutes from devils den and blue grotto which was the reason we came here. The property itself was large compared to the residence, gave us a good amount of space to walk our dog around and she loved it. A few things I would think to find like pot holders I couldn’t find or a strainer but we made do. There is a windiest up the road that we ran to a few times to grab things. Only real ‘negative’ I would call out is there is a street light that shines right at the main bedroom windows which felt like it lit up the room which was jarring for me as we don’t have streetlights on our street at home so it made it a little difficult for me to fall asleep. But not something the owner can control. WiFi was strong, has Roku on the tv, water gets hot quickly. Overall we were glad to find this property!

It is an adorable little house. Bed was comfortable but I think the sheets and some of the towels had not been laundered. My bed sheets had dog hair and some dirt on them at the foot of the fitted sheet. The sheets also had a lot of pillage on them. A few towels did not smell clean and one had stains on it. The kitchen was lacking a lot if you were planning on making a meal. No ice or ice maker was not working. Sofa was pretty worn in places. Not trying to be harsh. Just being honest.
We loved staying at this property. The cottage is very cute, cozy and has everything you need. Kelly was above and beyond. A truly hidden gem! Close to many of the amenities! We would definitely come back and we strongly encourage others to stay there.

Girls Getaway Weekend at the Cottage
What a little hidden gem! The space was clean, cute and perfect size for me and my friends weekend getaway. The camfire pit is nice and this little rustic getaway is so close to Devils Den, the Two Tails Ranch and Cedar Lake Garden...it was worth the visit and we will definitely return for another visit!
