The place was a great little backyard cottage with ample room and amenities to be comfortable for a multiple night stay. There were clean towels and dishes as well as a small refrigerator, microwave, Keurig, books, games, and a Roku player. It was quiet with a beautiful deck that would be amazing to use during warmer months. The street parking wasn't an issue while we were there, but we were there during a slower part of the year I believe. Even still, it seemed like there were plenty of streets to utilize.
Carla provided an extensive list of restaurants and activities which was very thoughtful. We visited Laili, Lillian's, The Buttery, and Verve coffee, which were all great! We also walked around Neary Lagoon and found it to be pretty and peaceful.
The neighborhood was quiet, and centrally located, which worked out great for us! We walked to dinner the first night and took a short Uber ride one of the other nights. We never saw or heard her brother, who lives in the cottage next door, and her sweet mom greeted us at check-in to show us around the place and explain everything. They respected our privacy the entire time, but they offered their help if and when we needed it.
There are only two very small and nit-picky things I would mention about the cottage. First, because we visited in February, it was a little chilly outside. We were pretty cold when we arrived, and the cottage was not heated. The cottage does not have central heating system, but there is a small electric heater on the wall in the living room, and they provide an electric heater fan that does a pretty good job for the bedroom, but the place never really warmed up that first night. The mature trees in the backyard provide a lot of shade, so I am guessing this place is amazing in the summer (nice and cool), but be prepared to rely on the heater fan during the colder months. Second, the water temperature in the shower can be difficult to manage. The faucet is pretty tight, so whenever you try to change the temperature, it can move too far one way or the other. Definitely not a deal breaker, just a minor heads up for future guests.
I would highly recommend this place, and I would love to stay here again! Great quiet location and lovely people! Thanks Carla!
