This cottage was amazing. We needed a place to stay for a work event and dreaded getting a hotel, so we started looking on here. We were fortunate that Carrie had availability, because her place was a true gem!
Carrie and her family were warm and kind, and chatted with us when we initiated conversations, but they gave us our privacy and space. (Not sure how to say that without sounding weird!)
Their cottage is like an in-law home on their property, and it's completely separated from their house. We had a private gate to use to enter the yard, and everything was key-coded for easy entry and exit.
The cottage itself was picture perfect, right out of a magazine! It smelled fresh and new, and looked amazing. It's the kind of place you WISH you could stay at, and we did! They had the windows open when we arrived and the breezes through the space were so pleasant.
The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, and then some! We did some grocery shopping nearby and we were able to make breakfast as well as late night meals when we got back from our work events. All the tools and utensils were there, plus a few extras. :)
The bathroom was clean and perfect, stocked with amenities too! The washer and dryer were big and new, and there was a whole closet full of items meant to make our trip easier (in case we forgot something, Carrie had already thought of it!)
The bedrooms were impeccable. From the decor, to the cleanliness, to the comfort, no detail was spared. The beds were both so comfortable! And we had a great selection of pillows and blankets to choose from, as well. She even had a stack of extra towels for us in case we needed them.
The wi-fi was super fast, far better than any hotel we've ever stayed at! And they left a note with info for easy connectivity. The living room and TV were great too, and we were able to catch up on some of our shows while we were there.
It was easy to feel right at home here. Staying here was the best part of our trip, and we're hoping to travel back this way next year just so we can stay with Carrie & Julian again!
