Loved this cozy little house. It was so cute, clean, good a/c, comfortable beds. We really loved the beautiful view, shaded back porch and even caught a few fish off the dock. Great place. We will be back!

Copeland Cottage - A True Gem!!!!
We had a wonderful time and will definitely book the Copeland Cottage again. Our family relaxed, grilled, did a little fishing, and enjoyed the water using the kayaks. The beds were comfortable, and we had plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen had what we needed to cook, and there were various games to enjoy with the family. We originally selected a different place, but the owner had a "furniture issue" that left us without a place to stay. I say that in quotes because people were there when we arrived and were heading out to the water with the kayaks. Evolve jumped into action and found us this gem. I don't know how I missed it when I first looked for a place to stay. I am so happy the other place did not work out. The Copeland Cottage was perfect. Shelby, the guest host, was extremely helpful. She was quick to respond and help when I had questions during our stay. This is the first time I have booked with Evolve, and I am looking forward to booking with them again.
