This property met the basics: roof, floor, walls, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom. But it really could use a good, deep cleaning outside and in. Outside the property is very overgrown. There were rotted through areas of the deck in the front house, the gate to the cottage, the storage box on deck of cottage, and the railroad ties on the path. The outside could use a good pressure washing and trim. Old containers and concrete slabs could be removed. Deck on the cottage felt weak. The table/chairs and driftwood bench, need to be replaced. The area outside the double doors off the living room needs a good raking and trim. The polyester curtains on those doors need to be washed. There were visible spots. The lock box needs to be replaced. Inside it smelled of mildew and it was dusty. Everything just felt "tired". The towels in the bathroom need to be replaced (thin and dingy), as does the paper in the partition between the living area and the bedroom. (It was pulling away from the trim.) The living room furniture was tired. The cushions were flat and the polyester pillows were from the 1970's. The walls were dingy. A nice coat of paint would go a long way as would new carpeting. The bed was comfortable, but the feather pillows concerned me taken in the context of everything else. It could be described as "rustic", but rustic doesn't have to be sad and tired.

This charming bungalow was inviting and well stocked for any guest's needs. The bedroom had a comfortable bed and a quiet location at the back of the house. There was plenty of gathering space inoors and out.

The cottage was so calm and lovely. There was plenty of space for 2 people and we had an easy time checking in and out. Comfy and wonderful!

Thank you for a sweet, peaceful, beautiful place to be for a very special wedding weekend.

The place is really beautiful with lots of attention to detail.

Cozy, cute, eclectic and located in a great spot.

I stayed at this cottage for a couple nights by myself while I had some business in town, and my stay was pretty bad. My biggest issue was the smell - it reeked of cat pee. I have owned many animals throughout my life, enough to immediately recognize the smell. It was honestly overwhelming. The bedroom/living room area of the house is small and carpeted, so when I first opened the door the pee smell just hit me in the face, and the heaters made it so stuffy and suffocating. I immediately went to open the windows to air it out, and found none of the windows had screens.. except one, which wasn’t an actual installed screen panel, but a cut of screen fabric that was halfway attached with Velcro. I had to open up the place either way, the smell was so bad. That began the next issue - the spiders. I opened up three windows and the French doors, each time a giant spider fell down onto me. I am from the PNW, I know how it is and spiders don’t actually bother me that much. But after the 6th or 7th time one fell on me I was over it. The living area has stiff, uncomfortable wood futons, not the nice couches shown in the photos. Each night there was a neighbor yelling aggressively at someone.. being a younger woman on my own and hearing a nearby man yell angrily all night was unsettling, to say the least. There were cobwebs everywhere, crumbs on the carpet and surfaces, and overall the place did not feel clean. Plus the smell. I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful cottage located in a great neighborhood close to downtown. Very cozy, unique place with a lot of charm. We loved our stay!
