This was perfect for our week long stay. I just graduated from college and was on a tight budget so privacy and affordability were very important to us. Dean was an amazing host, extremely generous, helpful, and friendly. The cottage had everything that we needed to make a home away from home. The kitchen was stocked with utensils, cookware, condiments, and some basic food items like bread, OJ, fruit, and coffee. One night we took advantage of the BBQ in the private courtyard and grilled our dinner. We swam in Dean's pool and he gave us access to tennis rackets for the tennis court if we were interested. We picked some of the fruit on his property, was able to do laundry very conveniently, and we are very happy with our stay. Only wish it was longer. We highly recommend the studio cottage to anyone who is looking for a separate private structure (not a shared room in someone's house) and an excellent value for the price.
