I really loved staying at this sweet cottage. It was the perfect place to unwind after long work days (I work in Mpls and live in WI, so this was a resting spot between) and had everything I needed and more. Morning coffee in the backyard was perfect. I said hello to the chickens in their coop and loved seeing and being among all the trees and gardens, still beautiful even at the end of the growing season.
A perfect spot for a solo traveler or couple, with or without a dog. Very private feeling, but also part of the beautiful world that is this house and land.
The neighborhood is lovely, though the highway is audible the whole time, and typical city sounds are part of the experience. Nothing out of the ordinary but worth noting. I loved the view of the river bluffs from across the street. This house is perched in a truly magical spot.
I really appreciate the fair price and the little quirks were charming to me and helped me feel at home (cleaning supplies sitting out, light construction in progress- bump out into yard which let great light in but also some chill). So perhaps not suited for people expecting a 4 star hotel experience. More eating utensils (was just enough for one), some coffee filters for coffee maker, and a place to hang a towel in bathroom would be great, but just suggestions for future visitors to be aware of. I was happy to have an extra blanket and cozy quilt on the bed and fresh, clean towels available.
I hope to return soon! Thanks to Bonnie for a great place to stay.
