I loved the cottage, the host responded quickly and it was easy to book. Everything I needed was there, and I had a wonderful stay!! I gave it 4 only because there was really really musty smell throughout the entire house the whole time I was there, it smelled like a Goodwill store. I understand there are a lot of antique books and furniture there, but the smell never left even after using spray and trying to air it out. All the bed sheets and towels smelled like it too, I couldn’t escape it. All my clothes and hair kept the smell and it was noticeable to others. Embarrassing. I have severe asthma, but thankfully that was unaffected. Aside from that, thank you for a wonderful stay.

Was such a charming home, like other reviews mentioned. Great location, and in a nice neighborhood. Enough space for 3 adults. My spouse and I slept in the Queen bed room, and my sister slept in the Full bed room. My bed was flat and soft with plenty of quilts and covers to choose from. It jiggled whenever we moved, so it was an exercise in not waking each other up. But the house was quiet and cool and homey. It had all the kitchen items we needed to make meals, with a big dining table. It was nice to relax on the sofa in the evenings. The bathroom was small but that goes along with old homes. My brother in law would be too big and tall to stay there, but for me being smaller, it was wonderful. Would stay again.

The home is cozy, beautiful and well appointed. The owner is very attentive and responsive. We drove almost 18 hours and were arriving very late so she made sure all the lights and heater was on for us for when we arrived. Wonderful host and person. Have a great stay!

Charming cottage full of eclectic items that lead to conversations and intrigue. Nice outdoor spaces to use when the weather is nice and bugs are down. Very quiet location, but a quick drive to downtown and USC. Hosts are wonderful communicators as well. Easy check in process via VRBO app. Kitchen is well appointed, all it needs is a toaster. Bathroom has mid century charm, but could use a little work - all clean and functional. Would stay here again!

The house was really run down and in desperate need of maintenence. Worst part was the bathroom and plumbing. The mattress was old and sagged in the middle. The sheets had holes in them.

Comfortable Cottage

My sister and a friend stayed at the cottage and explored antique and thrift stores. Great location for food and shopping. After a full day of retail therapy, we relaxed and played cards on the beautiful dining room table. The owner has a true gift for decorating and the house was very clean. This is our 2nd time renting there and look forward to a 3rd.
