The open concept main floor is bright and cheerful. It boasts an equipped kitchen with island, dining area, seating area, bathroom, and king size bed. The loft can also be rented to sleep four additional guests. Guests can enjoy an evening outside on the patio and will have access to a BBQ grill, a fire ring, and yard games.

Space
For extra guests in your group (after 2) the loft may be rented for $30/night per guest. (Taxes and cleaning are included in the pricing.). There are four single beds in the Loft. Ceiling fans are on both floors. The Cottage has DISH Satellite TV. Enjoy the quiet country with a morning cup of coffee on the patio! And later use the grill or roast hot dogs and marshmallows at the fire ring. Save time to have some fun competition playing "bean bag toss" or "croquet" in the back yard.

Guest Access
Just four miles from Marshall, you will be minutes from shopping, restaurants, and Missouri Valley College.. Also experience the beautiful Courthouse on the Marshall Square, Jim the Wonder Dog Park/Museum, Nicholas Beezley Aviation Museum, Indian Foothills Park with golf and swimming. Not too far is Baltimore Bend Winery, and Peach and Apple Orchards/Markets in Waverly. There is Blind Pony Conservation for fishing near Sweet Springs and Grand Pass Wildlife Area for hunting near Miami. Always a treat is The Lyceum Theatre in historic Arrow Rock.

Guest Interaction
I hope to meet the guests, but the check-in is easy if that isn't possible. We give our guests their privacy but we are available anytime they need us.

Neighborhood Overview
My husband and I live up the hill from The Little Red Cottage. Pets live on the property. A Bassett hound (Rita) who is friendly and curious, but will not bother you. If you prefer, she can be contained. A yellow cat (Frank) that may hang around. It seems they both like the front porch when we have guests! You may hear an occasional LOUD train whistle! The tracks are very close to the Cottage and the hum of train going by can be soothing.

The garage is normally not for guest use and the Cottage is not equipped with a dishwasher, washer, or dryer.

We ask that guests clean up after themselves, emptying the trash in the trash barrel and washing the dishes before checking out. Leave the linens and towels! We will take care of those. Smoking is allowed OUTSIDE ONLY and please clean up after yourself. Please be respectful of the neighbors and don't engage in any loud or disturbing noises.
