We are located on a shared private lane with two other cottages which is what makes this cottage so quaint and cozy! Relax and unwind in the homey living area, or on the front porch. Grab some steaks and grille in the large private fully fenced backyard were you furry friends can run and play.
The cottage is also a very short walk from a little goat farm where you can sit on a bench and feed the goats for 25 cents, weather permitting. If you're lucky you may see a little baby goat. Ask me for directions!
We supply enough paper towels, toilet paper, coffee, tea, sugars and creamers to get you through your first couple of days. For longer stays there is a Food Lion supermarket less than 2 mi from the cottage.
There are 2 designated gravel parking spaces for the cottage, one in front and one on the side of the cottage. PARKING ON THE SHARED LANE OR GRASS IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED!

We allow up to 2 dogs for an additional price of $25.00 per night. Dogs must be leashed at all times while in the front of the house but can run and play in the fully fenced in backyard. We ask that you please pick up any pet waste in the yard - we leave waste bags at the cottage for you as well as dog bowls, a dog bed, and a dog towel on top of the dryer for your dog.
