It is a beautiful cottage, in a traditional little Texas town. Plenty to do and places to relax and have a fine meal. I wasn't there for a get away, rather a place to stay and study while attending a nearby training. The cottage was very comfortable and a perfect place to quietly study and relax. One suggestion, there are several remotes in the cabin, have extra batteries available. The TV batteries were going out which was a bit frustrating the first night. Fortunately there were batteries for sale very near by.

We miscommunicated our early check-in, so perhaps that is the reason for some of our concerns. The place was completely ready with towels in place and beds made, dishes clean, etc. When we pulled back the sheets we saw a lot of dog hair and a spot of blood. The comforter had a yellow stain. There was no bath soap or shampoo. Just two bottles of conditioner. The bathroom vent could use a cleaning. And the rugs needed a fluff. Despite this, when we brought it to the attention of the host, it was quickly remedied. Under the bed and sofas could use a good sweep. No, we were not looking for dust. We just saw it when we were looking for the remote control (we lost it in the seat cusions). Perhaps recent rain kept the yard from being mowed. Not a big deal since it was too hot to be outside for very long. Getting the tv to the cable station was a little confusing. We figured it out, but my 70 year old parents would have never figured out. All in all, a really good experience. I leave the above-items so that this place stays a hidden gem.

Nice and moderized. Very displeased that the back door locks were poorly installed. The Dead Bolt would not engage because the hole was drilled incorrectly. The door handle apparently had the same problem. When locking both, the door could just be pushed or pulled open. The lighting was great if you needed bright lights, bjt t

Cute cabin, very clean and peaceful. We were upset it listed a grill and one wasn't on site, minor thing but we planned a weekend getaway of outdoors and grilling.

Really enjoyed staying at the Blue Jay getaway and would definitely stay again. Some of the towels could use a bleach and I think a Brita pitcher would be helpful for the Keurig so you don't use tap water, but otherwise no complaints. Easy to get to, easy to get to the square, beautiful views out the back (loved getting to sit and watch the deer), and it felt safe to be at alone. I missed the first email with the door code and when I called, the company was quick to send me a new email and stay on the phone to make sure I was able to get in. Since these two houses are so close, it would be great for two couples or family members wanting to stay close together but have their own space
