Cute Cottage!!

This little cottage is adorable, so clean and comfortable. The upstairs loft does have steep stairs so easier to climb if young and spry! Ashley the owner was very welcoming and we enjoyed the area and the restaurants !

Very nice rental

We chose this rental due to its central location between my two nieces' homes. It served as a very comfortable base for us in between visits. It was super clean and well organized. The layout was great and the kitchen well-planned to maximize space. It was quiet and peaceful and we had a wonderful time.

Cozy cottage

My husband and I were in Duxbury for a few days over Thanksgiving. We chose this cottage as it was close to family and the village. The minute we opened the door we felt at home. So warm and cozy! The owner Ashley, had left us a bottle of wine in the fridge and delicious pastries for breakfast. Truly a great stay and will definitely stay again when visiting the area.

Clean and Relaxing

This is a cute place-- small, but efficiently and beautifully designed (great for two-- or a couple w/ 2 kids in the loft. There is traffic on one adjacent street, but it is not seen (due to the shrubbery) and is only heard every now and then. The place is clean and relaxing. A great place to hang out-- or to travel to nearby historic locations. Thanks for the nice stay!

Beautiful and Cozy Cottage!

This was our second stay at this beautiful and cozy cottage. The cottage is clean and well stocked with all of the comforts of home. The owners left us a bottle of wine and fresh pastries from a favorite local bakery, French Memories. When I visit my brother in Duxbury this little storybook cottage is always my first choice. Thank you again for a wonderful stay. We will be back!

Lovely Cottage in Duxbury, MA

Our daughter and her family live in Duxbury. We are so happy to have found “Hummingbird Cottage”! It is charming and right near our daughter’s house. The cottage is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Very clean and inviting. Check in was super easy. Ashley, the owner, was very welcoming and she was in very good communication with us. We will be back on our next visit to Duxbury! Thank you, Ashley!

EXCELLENT - my favorite VRBO so far!

This property was everything as advertised- and previous reviews. Adorable cottage beautifully decorated & spotlessly clean with very comfortable bed. Nice big yard with lots of privacy. And best of all - the hosts were lovely - always pleasant & available whenever I needed anything. I am already looking forward to my return to this A+ property! Thank you Ashley & John. Joan Carroll
