Benjamin’s cottage and the location worked well for our needs. Grocery store options and a Caribou coffee shop were close by; I was able to find good road cycling routes from the house without too heavy of traffic, the nearby Reservoir Woods was perfect for walks with our dog (well shaded for hot summer days) and it was wonderful having a large fenced backyard for our dog. We also appreciated having enough workspace as we both had to work some days during our visit.
