We really enjoyed our stay. The downtown area was cute and the canal was easily accessible from the property for kayaking. The house was clean and the check in process was easy. Would definitely recommend if you are staying in the area.

Inside cabin is clean and comfortable. Stocked with very basics like towels and linens. Outside is a little more “natural” than I expected. Short down to the creek. Very still area. Bring bug spray.

Dan and Patty Silver creek New York. We stayed at Tamaras cottage for 2 months and had a wonderful time. It's everything that Tamara describes and more. It was super clean and very nicely decorated. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need to prepare your meals. The bathrooms and kitchen have been updated and looks great. The town is 5 minutes away and has lots of great restaurants and shops. The beach is 20 minutes away and is the nicest beach we have ever seen Tamara is a super host she gets 5 stars and so does her cottage. We highly recommend staying here if we decide to come back to this area we will definitely stay here again. Book this place now before someone else does

I would love to return to this little home. It is cute and comfortable and we liked the location. Communication with the host was great. We did have the power go out, but only for a minute or so. Great AC, okay internet. I enjoyed mornings on the deck.
