This was a great place to stay. It is very convenient, being walking distance to all the restaurants and shops on the Square, but far enough away to be quiet. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was spotless, and the kitchen was well appointed with everything you need. On top of all that, the place was beautifully decorated, which made it a pleasure to come “home” each evening.

If you are looking for THE most adorable place to stay in Georgetown, you cannot go wrong with this precious cottage. It’s beautifully appointed with the most comfortable king size bed. The retro kitchen with the pink appliances may be the cutest kitchen I’ve ever been in. And don’t forget the selection of delicious treats from local places. It’s really one of the best VRBOs we’ve ever stayed in anywhere.
