My husband and I stayed here from Mon-Fri and loved the space. There are only a few not so positive things we have to say, and the rest are very good, so don’t let what little negative things we say deter you from staying in this cute cottage!
Upon checking in, the place had still not been cleaned yet. We checked in at 6:30pm, so considering our check-in time was 3pm, we were very surprised and a little disappointed. I will say that I contacted Heath and also the number he previously provided us and the response time was immediate. We left for dinner by 6:40 and by 7:45pm I received a text that the cottage was clean. I’m sure this is not something that happens often at all, but they rectified the situation immediately which was much appreciated! The second thing was pretty minor, but a slight inconvenience. The bedroom only had one outlet that we could find that the tv and a lamp are plugged into, and it is across from the bed. Charging across the room is not a big deal, but would have been nice to have one closer to the bed on nights when we are settling in and answering messages on our phones. Like I said, a minor inconvenience and is definitely not a make or break kind of thing. Next time, we will probably just bring our portable chargers. The last thing before I leave all the positives is that the shower is pretty small and while it has great water pressure, you have to make sure that the curtain is closing off the floor area otherwise you’ll have a nice big puddle of water when you step out. Thankfully, they had a bunch of extra towels to place on the floor. Again, not a make or break thing at all, but just something to be aware of and be intentional about when taking a shower.
Other than that, this cottage was the perfect place to stay! Everything is within 15 mins or less. Very comfortable mattress. Full access to thermostat. Kitchen is fully stocked with all the plates, pots, pans, and cooking utensils you need. All appliances are updated. Extra towels and lots of storage for your clothes. Separate entrance with the option to park your car inside the garage. Little patio outside in the backyard area was a nice option to have. You really feel you have your own privacy!
All-in-all, we would absolutely stay again! The neighborhood was quiet, besides a couple dogs at another house who would bark when we parked outside lol, and Heath was very detailed in his communication which made the check-in and check-out process extremely easy! Thank you for showing us fellow New Yorkers some southern hospitality!
