Very private and clean little cottage. A few minor issues with the fireplace not operational and struggled to get the remote to the tv to work properly, but overall we had a nice stay.

Thank you very much for the wonderful time in this special house! From the moment we arrived, we immediately felt at home. The apartment is very well equipped and furnished with great care and attention to detail – we truly didn’t miss a thing. We especially loved the charm of the house. It doesn’t feel like a typical holiday apartment, but much more like a little home away from home. Exactly how you imagine the perfect place for a vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again!

This cottage is absolutely gorgeous! It is quiet, but in easy driving distance to the town of Chester, and is decorated in a tasteful and fun way. The kitchen is well appointed, bedding comfortable, and the location is great - with access to the lake beach included. The host was very responsive and pleasant in all communications. We highly recommend this lovely property!

Winter Getaway

The cottage was adorable and perfectly suited our needs as a friend getaway. When I got Covid in August (our original vacation date), the host was so understanding and allowed us to move the time. Chester was a great town, beautiful scenery, and yummy restaurants. Would stay here again!

Entry code lock difficult to see if you arrive in the dark. Bathroom door not wide enough for a wheelchair or walker. Fireplace did not work for the first 2 and a half days, but she sent someone to fix it for the last days and gave us an extended late check out as compensation.Very cozy place and charming area. outdoor patio and firepit are a great amenity.

We couldn’t be happier that we booked this charming home! It was incredibly clean, comfortable and well maintained. It is really well decorated and appointed with anything you will need during your stay. It’s very obvious that the owner takes pride in this property. We booked this for two nights and would have enjoyed staying longer. The pictures are 100% accurate of the property, you won’t be disappointed.

We often visit this area to see lifelong friends. From now on, if we're not staying with them, it'll be here. Has everything you could need/want. Decorated perfectly. Square footage shouldn't deter you; it's truly cozy, not cramped. Owner communication was great, too.

This was one of the most complete rentals I've stayed in with family, everything we needed or might need was there! The cottage was nicely decorated inside and out. There were high ceilings and the tiled bathroom with a soaking tub and glass shower enclosure was very nice. There were 2 lovely bedrooms with comfortable beds and cozy linens. My mom appreciated having a TV in her bedroom. We appreciated the room darkening curtains for sleeping The open kitchen living, dining and kitchen area was very comfortable for 3 people to spread out and relax. We enjoyed eating outside on the back deck and used the outdoor firepit 1 night. We explored the area during the day: picnics at Devil's Hopyard State Park and esp. enjoyed the building and grounds of Gillette's Castle. Nothing we wanted to do was very far away.

Peaceful

Cottage was decorated perfectly, the owner thought of everything! The back yard has a nice fire pit, wood included. We were 3 cousins having a mini reunion, it worked out beautifully. Quiet neighborhood near the lake, downtown is very quant, good restaurants, places to hike nearby. We were very happy! Thank you!
