Summary: We had the most wonderful stay at this charming cottage! It was cozy, beautifully decorated, and felt like a true escape from the hustle of everyday life. We especially loved relaxing on the porch and soaking in the peaceful mountain air. Every detail was thoughtfully done, making it feel like a home away from home. Highly recommend for anyone needing a little reset in a beautiful, serene setting!
