Quiet, cozy getaway

We were attending a horse show at WEC but loved getting away to the peace and quiet of the cottage, grilling at night, and walking the dogs. We would definitely stay again! Thank you!!

Fantastic Dog friendly place!

We were so impressed by how nice this place is. It is comfortable, well maintained and beautiful. The scenery is great and the fireflies put on a great show every night. We had a great time staying there while attending a dog show at the Robert's Center. The location was very convenient.

Our second visit was just as cozy as the first

This is our second year in a row of renting the Cozy Cottage. It’s a wonderful location to get away from it all while still close to plenty of Cowan Lake trails and Caesar’s Creek activities for the kids. We loved being to bring our dog and find all the amenities to feel like we were glamping. :)

Perfect accommodations & awesome host!

Attending a local dog show out in Wilmington, this cottage was the perfect home for us - it had everything we needed inside with a very well stocked kitchen ((thx for the Keurig supplies!)), lots of space to relax indoors and out, and super close to the beach and park to run our dog. The bed was very comfortable for sleeping, the large seating at the table was great for cards/games and the large sectional was great for movie watching. The natural lighting & decor was very weIcoming & the woods added to the ambiance. I would definitely stay here again the next time I’m in the area!

EXACTLY what I needed

Stayed at the cabin for 6 nights while in town for work. Thank goodness all of the hotels were full because I never would’ve found this gem. I needed peace and quiet to rest and study and that’s exactly what this cabin provided. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything I needed (including an electric kettle!) Communication with Tom was super fast and helpful. Couldn’t ask for more!

Peaceful sanctuary!

I loved my stay at this cottage! The peaceful, quiet setting was a welcomed respite from the daily chaos of a dog show at the Roberts Centre in Wilmington. The drive was very easy and sometimes I went back & forth several times daily. The cottage was larger than I expected, and very comfortable. I greatly appreciated that the owners permitted my two dogs. I hope future renters with pets continue to respect this property so the owner will continue to allow dogs. Thank you!!

Excellent Location

For a writer looking to getaway and get some work done, I couldn't have asked for a more quiet, peaceful, and serene location. The proximity to the lake was ideal and the cottage itself was beyond comfortable. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.

Little cottage in the woods

My wife and I went here for a little get away. The cottage is tucked into the woods and is nice and quiet if your looking for a place to just relax this is the place. Everything that you you need is available to you here has a nicely stock kitchen and all the furniture in the house is great quality. We spent the evening sitting by the fire pit in the back yard and you don’t hear any noise except birds.

Anniversary vacation

We stayed 4 days and enjoyed lounging around and fishing at nearby lake Cowan. Very comfortable and cool. Would visit again. Wilmington was only about 15 minutes away with restaurants and kroger for anything you may have forgotten. Be sure to visit Laney Cakes Bakery on friday and saturday since the close every other day, they had amazing foods. Quiet area, had no neighbors in other cabins that we knew or heard of. The back windows face the woods and are angled away from neighboring lots so privacy is good.
