Great property walking distance from downtown. Well equipped kitchen with a great coffee, espresso machine. All coffee was provided as well as bath essentials. Quiet neighborhood that was very walkable although it was very hot(August). Our host answered any questions promptly. Very comfortable stay. We would definitely stay there again!

This was an excellent little house to stay at. We came for a short weekend to hike the Inner Space caverns and go to a Volts game. The house is nicely located right next to down town we were able to walk to the Second Saturday farmers market. I would highly recommend and we have already started making plans to return!

There are not enough adjectives to describe this house. We needed overnight accommodations and our needs were blown out of this world. We walked to the square for dinner, sat on the front porch in the evening and again in the morning with our coffee. The house is adorable, beautiful and comfortable. But most of all CLEAN. It is a place I will book again Thank you Amy

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.
