10/10 Excellent
"This is such a cute cottage. Easy to find, great parking, very clean and efficient. We stayed over for a wedding and were greeted by a beautiful doe in the backyard upon arrival. The beds were comfortable and the Keurig in the morning was clutch for a cup of coffee with a view. Nellie had the patio all cleaned and arranged to enjoy. The home was cool at night. The only thing I couldn't find was a hair dryer, but I'm sure if I messaged her, she would have told me where to look. This is a great cottage for a small family or a set of couples. We will be back to enjoy Pilot Mtn next time (only 10-15 mins away). Great hideaway- comfortable, well-stocked and clean!"
