Cute, Comfortable and Clean

Cottage was cute, comfortable and clean! Although it’s close to the main house, it felt private as we didn’t see anyone else during our stay. The property is beautiful. We enjoyed the scenery sitting out on the porch swing.

Emory trip

The cottage is cozy and well-equipped. There were some issues with the Wifi during our stay, but apparently the issue was area-wide. It was located very conveniently to the events we attended in the Emory area. We would definitely stay there again if we ever travel to this area in the future.

Disappointed

We did not feel welcome at this site. The owners never spoke to us and I felt very uncomfortable walking so close to their back porch where they were sitting and they never said hi or hello. I did en j on the fishing but the cabin has some very uncomfortable fixtures. No hot water in the bath room except in the bathtub.

Girls Trip

This is a beautiful property! Loved sitting on the dock in the morning taking in the sounds and sights of nature. Very peaceful and serene. Came with a friend to attend Canton Trade Days. We were there over 4th of July and were able to view a fireworks show and even a few more from the neighbors across the pond. The cabin was adorable. Would definitely return!
