    Fantastic weekend getaway!

    The breakfast was freshly made and tasted wonderful! There was a good variety (including vegetarian-friendly options), as well as complimentary afternoon desserts. The owners even took note of any dietary restrictions or preferences. They also supplied complimentary soda, water, and light snacks in the room, along with a mini fridge and microwave. They were easily reachable by phone or by coming to the front office. The wife, Shira, is an artist and it was fun seeing some of her work around the front office (see picture for one example). They also gave great tips for the best ways to get around town (trolly, biking, or driving), the best locally-owned places to eat, and a variety of activities and nightlife options. They provided maps, trolley information, and flyers for events around town. They also took opportunities to ask if we needed any refills on snacks or additional help with anything. Perhaps my favorite part was the beautiful grounds. There are a variety of trees, flowers, bushes, vines, etc. that make it look enchanting. We saw a variety of butterflies, heard birds singing in the trees each day, and enjoyed listening to the crickets and frogs in the evening. The inn is right on the edge of town, only a minute or two from restaurants and stores, but the trees make it feel secluded and block out any noise from the city and traffic. It was an amazing stay, and we look forward to returning!

    We were right next to a restaurant but it didn’t cause any extra noise.

    Plenty of room and a homey feel.

    The one complaint I have would be the coffee. Not sure if it was the coffee or the water, but something didn't taste right to me. However if that's all I have to complain about that tells you what a wonderful trip we had!

    I looked forward to the breakfasts everyday, not knowing what was coming, but knowing it would be wonderful! Same for the snacks we were brought daily. Looked forward to going out on new adventures daily, but also was happy to come back "home" in the evening.

    Only thing we didn’t care for was the quiche for Saturday but that is a personal preference we are southern meat and eggs kinda people. The French toast casserole on Sunday was sublime.

    Absolutely amazing stay. The cottage was in a perfect place for us right outside of downtown so we could get involved in downtown life or we could be isolated for our anniversary!! The owners were amazingly helpful in suggestions and respectful of our privacy.
