The cottage was so cute and clean. It was decorated in holiday decor and made us feel welcome and cozy. The bed was super comfy, The hot tub was amazing and worth the stay. We loved the fire pit, too, and the living area was great. Overall a really good stay! Only suggestions would be a better knife set for prepping and cooking and possibly a privacy wall with hooks for towels near hot tub, and hooks inside the shower stall for drying bathing suits. Thanks again for a lovely stay!
