It was a great place to stay, very clean, had all the amenities needed! Would highly recommend to anyone. Neighbors nearby but never had any encounters. Quiet location, great place for a getaway. The owners kept in touch and never needed anything, as they had it all.
My first vrbo stay was very quiet very clean nice side deck had everything we needed spent the majority of the time on the deck catching up with old friends definitely hope to book it for next year when we are back in town
Easy check in / check out. Very clean cottage. Property as described. Good Wi-Fi service. Nice to have complimentary coffee, soaps, and towels provided.
Lazy Oaks Cottage is a great little place! Everything was delightful and pristine, well-appointed and well decorated. And my bed was so, so comfortable! I highly recommend this property as a vacation rental and will certainly look at it for next year.
Enjoyed this cute cottage. The grounds are well manicured and the cottage is nicely decorated, comfy and super clean! Enjoyed the local parks (McConnells Mill and Moraine) and attended a wedding venue (The Atrium). All very close by. Definitely 5 Stars!
Came to see grandson for his birthday and came along this listing and it looked like the perfect quiet country getaway and that is sure what it was. Even saw deer in the yard. Hose was very nice and responded quickly if I needed anything.
This property was great. It was exactly as advertised. And there were free snacks and coffee. We enjoyed our stay very much. Just be aware that the keypad is actually on the front door where the keyhole would usually be. I spent about 15 minutes looking for a lockbox on the porch only to discover that I had only needed to open the door to find the keypad.
I was having surgery three hours away from my home, but only 40 minutes away from your property that day. It was so nice not to have to drive the whole way home after having my procedure done when we arrived at your property it was so accommodating for me to get around. It was so beautiful inside and so warm and so even welcoming. Amanda cared about my surgery and wanted to make sure that her accommodations were fitting for my stay and wanted to make sure we were taken good care of.
My wife got to enjoy extensive down time while I got to work and she enjoyed it. Thank you for an amazing stay.
