The cottage is exactly like the pictures. The messy neighbor a few people mentioned does get blocked by the fence and doesn’t ruin the scenery. Gives you something to talk about driving up the driveway. The view is beautiful of the hills. It’s secluded enough to enjoy the sounds of nature but also close enough to a supermarket and restaurants. Also a beautiful neighborhood right down the street with a gorgeous view including a play ground and a trail. Lit the fire pit every night. Kids enjoyed the hot tub. Cooked a few meals there, she does have everything you need. The decor I loved I would move in if I could. A few ladybugs in the cottage my kids were obsessed with them. Comfortable for our family of 5. WiFi was definitely a plus to share our experience as it was happening.
