Great trip and PERFECT stay!

My best friend and I had a great girls’ trip and stay at Kirk’s cottage. The location to main street, shops, and eateries was easy and short. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. It was the perfect setting! We had a great stay and couldn’t ask for more.

The cottage is very quaint. Spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. Close to town. In a very nice community and located near waterfalls and hiking trails. Lovely town to shop and eat out. The host, Kirk, went above and beyond for us. Highly recommended. We will definitely return. Try edelweiss pastry shoppe.

Relaxing and enjoyable

The house was everything you see on the website Very warm and inviting. Very very clean. I can’t say enough good things about Kirk. He helped me with booking, got in touch with me in the process of getting me the information on how to enter the home once we arrived.
