The Perfect Spot!

We had a wonderful stay at the Cottage! The cottage itself was cozy and quiet and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There were fresh eggs in the fridge when we arrived, as well as homemade soap and freshly baked bread. Coley was very friendly and accommodating. She was happy to give us recommendations for nearby activities, lend us her tubes, and most importantly introduce us to her three sheep called "The Three Munchketeers"!! The cottage is about an hour from Stowe and 1h15m from Burlington with plenty of cute nearby towns as well. We would definitely go back in the future!
