What a beautiful cottage! We are already planning on making another trip up here just so we can stay in the home. If you love wildlife, this is your ideal spot! There were turkey, deer, and groundhogs in the yard every morning, and of course Jasper and Jackson (the goats) were one of the best parts of our stay! Gail was an amazing host as well and we were super grateful for her hospitality. Highly highly recommend!

This is by far my favorite VRBO rental in the U.S.. The cottage is quaint and feels lived in. The views are beautiful. The hosts are some of the best people I know. The area has so many things to see and do. I always sleep very well when I stay here and feel entirely refreshed when I return home.

The house was quaint, cute, and detailed by way of the book left for us to read. They left a list of places they recommended to eat, a map of the old districts and what to look for, not to mention the cute goats and chicken you get to say hello to in the morning. They really were excellent to work with. I was even given a birthday card. It really was a great experience for a long birthday weekend.
