We had a great experience at our cottage. It is in a beautiful neighborhood. You will be very, very comfortable here. The neighborhood feels like a gem in the city with horses, peacocks chickens and other animals. It was very quiet and pleasant and the cottage itself was clean and inviting when we arrived. The bed was comfortable and the pull-out couch worked well for us, since we had our 8 year old along. He also enjoyed the swing on the property and playing in the cute yard before we would head out for the day. We appreciated the washer and dryer as well and were able to pack a bit lighter knowing we could use them to wash. We enjoyed some lunches at the mall before heading out for our afternoon activities. To accommodate both children and adults, we found the Bristol Farms deli to be perfect for a quick meal, as well as Red Brick pizza. The cottage is also so close to the Pacific Hwy it makes getting anywhere very easy.
