The cottage boasts 1100 square feet of tranquility with two living areas and two separate sleeping areas, each with a private entrance. French doors provide the opportunity to have breakfast while watching the wildlife roam. With over a dozen oil paintings from all over the world, this little country cottage is an art lovers dream.

The place was perfect and exactly as described. There’s lots of open space indoors and out. Everything was immaculate. A great location for visiting family in the area. The neighborhood is peaceful, beautiful, and safe. We particularly enjoyed listening to the birdsong in the morning with a good cup of coffee - so relaxing! The hosts are extremely helpful and very responsive. Appreciated the wonderfully helpful book with information about the ranch, the horses, and surrounding places to check out.
