What a great cozy little cottage! Unfortunately the weather was not on our side but we were extremely comfortable in the cottage. Our hosts were out of this world. Very responsive when i arrived and throughout our stay. If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely stay again!

We stayed here while our camper was undergoing service work at the manufacturer, and everything was perfect. The location is ideal for easily checking in on our RV. It’s clear the hosts put amazing care into this property—from the k-cups on the counter to the provided shampoo and conditioner, it’s the perfect place to just arrive and unwind without unpacking everything.Both the interior and exterior were beautifully maintained before, during, and after our stay; the lawn is perfectly manicured, and our dog loved having plenty of room to roam. The nearby park was incredibly convenient for stretching our legs during work lunch breaks, and the strong, stable internet allowed both of us to work remotely without a hitch.We 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting for the local fairs, RV service, or just exploring the area. The hosts are wonderfully responsive, and by the time we checked out, we felt more like family than guests!

We had a wonderful stay at Cozy Cottage. We chose to stay at this VRBO instead of a hotel while our coach was being worked on, because we had two Golden Retrievers. We are so glad we did. The home was comfortable, well-equipped, clean, and just what we needed. The hosts, Teresa and Missy, were great to work with, and the cookies baked by Madeline made the visit all the sweeter. So sweet that we ordered two dozen and a pumpkin roll to take with us on the road. I highly recommend this property as a relaxing stay while waiting on repairs or just visiting the area.

This house and property are beautifully kept in a quiet neighborhood and a friendly outside cat will happily make you feel right at home. The owners are kind and thoughtful and provide everything you need for a nice stay. Although the property welcomes pets, there is no sign nor smell of animals! Mancinos restaurant and Hardings Friendly Market are very nearby. Close to Shipshewana and Elkhart, you can shop the flea market or Forks County Line Store and find other fun adventures. I highly recommend this property!

The host, co-hosts and maintenance guy were great. And we absolutely loved the treats from Madeleine. We got to know the neighbors and they all were great. The house was just the right size for us and our 2 cats. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.
