Charming cottage
The cottage was on a nicely manicured property with ample parking for us. The inside was a perfect size for the two of us. The place was decorated really nicely. Everything that we needed was there. They even had complimentary hot cocoa, tea and coffee for us to make with mugs that we could take home as a souvenir of our stay. The hosts were super friendly and accommodating.

A gift of peace & respite
I thoroughly enjoyed my weeklong stay here. All my needs were met, warmth, comfort, peace, time to enjoy meeting new and old friends, reading, meditating and resting as I was receiving medical treatments throughout the week. I am truly blessed and thank my lovely hosts who provided me with a safe and loving place for me to rest my head. I can't thank you enough. Kathy

An excellent accommodation
This charming cottage made for a perfect overnight stay. Spotlessly clean, cozy but roomy, well-supplied, and decorated with just the right touches, it fit the bill for me to a "T." The surrounding property is quiet and peaceful, and the road is great for walking. On a two-week trip through the northeast, I stayed in five different places, and this was by far the best.
