We loved this cozy, peaceful place to stay for a long weekend. It was so quiet and the river views are really beautiful. It was wonderful staying right on the water and so easy to get around to local stores, restaurants and sights to see. The host is helpful and responsive. Everything about our trip was smooth and lovely.

Great long weekend! The cottage is comfy, quaint, and included everything we wanted and needed to enjoy a couples retreat over the Valentine’s Day weekend. The owner was responsive and kind. We will be booking again, can’t wait to see the property in the summer right on the river as it was amazing during this winter stay.

This was a cute little cottage with a river view and dock. The cottage was clean and close to many attractions, dinning and food store nearby. It is a nice place for a couple. Ask the locals where places to visit and you be surpised to find little jems everywhere. The host Todd was easy to contact. Smooth check-in and check-out.Thank You

It's an adorable old cottage that looks and feels new. Super relaxing spot in a gorgeously quaint little town- loved the little provisions grocery store with a convenient dunkin donuts across the street that wasnt even 5 minutes away. Beautiful river view and open sky. Comfortable bed and couch, bathroom is compact (so if you have any challenges with being a larger body with limited flexability- this may not suit you), shower is amazing! Kitchen is perfect. Host stopped by on our last night, super kind and friendly! Brought our two dogs and had a great time! Super dog friendly place. Everything was great! Can't wait to go back!
