- "Cottage 14 was perfect for our girls getaway. It was clean, comfortable, cozy and adorable. The beds were comfortable. The only minor negative was the rock path from parking to the cottage. Note: the upstairs bedroom is very toasty warm when the heat is on, but we just cracked the window and it was fine. We would definitely stay here again. Very pleasant stay." - "It was nice to wake up and watch the deer roam around." - "Loved the area and property felt like home away from home. We were on the first floor and the family upstairs with kids were continually running around from early in the morning and it was really loud. That’s just people not being considerate of others. Other than that we had a amazing time. Will definitely be back in the future. Thank you "
