Summary: This delightful little cottage is everything it claims to be. We spent a month at the property while visiting family. The location is very convenient to local attractions as well as the freeways you need to access. The tiny space is so cute and well appointed and lives much larger than you would expect. The host has considered every detail. It made our stay so pleasant and we will return.
