Very nice to be within walking distance of downtown (1 mile). Walk back is uphill but doable if you are in reasonable condition, or you could just order up an Uber. Property is an older home in an older established neighborhood that has a good feel. It’s a little quirky as many older homes can be, but everything you need is there. Bed was comfortable, kitchen complete, and living room spacious. It was pretty cool when we were there so we didn’t utilize the patio or covered porch, but those would be great in nice weather.

WONDERFUL!!! I can not say enough good things about this little cottage. My husband and I felt at home the minute we entered. This home is cozy and cute inside and out. The bed is very comfortable. The outdoor patio areas are peaceful and park-like. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. I felt quite secure walking my dog in the early mornings and late in the evenings. It was great being so close to the national park and the downtown area. So convenient. The listing is absolutely accurate. We would definitely stay here again! Rent without hesitation. You will be glad that you did!

Everything was great! We would stay again. We wished there was a large trashcan in the kitchen or living area.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
We stayed here for a long weekend just this past week. We were really looking forward to the stay as prior reviews rated the home so high but unfortunately cannot give a high rating ourselves. First the pros- the home is very close to the main strip - not within walking distance as advertised but a short drive. Also, the back had great morning wildlife to enjoy. Now the concerns. The home had musty smell and wasn’t in a very great part of town. The dishwasher did not work and tub bottom appeared dirty so we didn’t try to use that. The property in general was very outdated despite new decor. The back railing was unsafe and not to code. The most concerning was the numerous tripping hazards throughout the property. Several rooms had small step ups or room transitions which would be unsafe for little kids or anyone over 50. My son tripped several times. The stairs to the basement were a metal spiral and I was shocked when I opened the basement door to go downstairs. They were definitely unsafe for any little kid and would be unsafe for someone older. The other thing we noticed was there were minimal towels and toilet paper. Only one spare roll of toilet paper for the bathroom seems stingy to me and only 4 towels in the whole house when the home sleeps 6. Lastly the beds were not comfortable. Neither bed had a box spring so there was absolutely no support. The bed hurt both my husbands and I’s backs. Place is fine for young adults but not older people or young kids.
