Great stay in a cute cottage!

We had a fantastic stay in Wyoming in this cute little cottage. Perfect size for two people, immaculately clean with all the amenities that we needed. The fridge with the ice maker was an great bonus. We didn't cook, but the cottage had everything that you would need to make a meal. On Day #3 we woke up to no hot water, but I texted the owner and she was there within 10 minutes to check it out. There had been a storm the day before and a power surge knocked out the hot water heater. Owner had the hot water working again quickly. Highly recommend this cute cottage for two!

Very cozy little place, easy to get to and the perfect size for a couple. Only thing we really had any gripes about were the wind chimes outside the bedroom were very loud during one of Laramie's famous windstorms, and we probably could have brought them inside. Otherwise, very clean and comfortable and met every need we had.

Owner should know not to rent property under construction without full disclosure

Property was under construction. Loud construction noise inside and outside the premises. There was no disclosure of this situation. Some highway noise from I-80 throughout the day and night. Also, confronted by a processor attempting to serve legal documents to the owner. Stay was unsettling and uncomfortable, my wife and I were unsure of our safety with construction workers in the ground level part of the house and on the premises, and a processor confronting us.

Good Stay Convenient to Laramie

Overall, the property is as described and the inside of the home is well kept, nicely styled, and completely adequate for a stay. My only real concern was that a person looking to reserve should be aware that though it is not shown as a policy on the listing, a night minimum can be imposed after the fact. We reserved for three nights, understanding that we could modify the reservation by a certain date. When we attempted to do so we were told we could not shorten the stay and there was a minimum. No minimum was shown at booking as I originally was booking 2 nights. Evidently, the property can decide at any point to enforce a minimum as they wish. I think it would be more forthright to include a policy stating that a night minimum can be enforced at any time that overrides the ability to modify the reservation. To have no stated policy and to not restrict the original reservation to a minimum seems a little arbitrary. Communications to compromise to satisfy the situation had no effect.

Great stay

This spot worked well for our needs. Cozy home, as described in listing. We used it as a home base to explore the area. Only downside was lack of air conditioning but we kept drapes closed during the day and it cooled down at night so we were OK. We would stay there again.

Great little house in a quiet location of Laramie.

Easy drive to Downtown and easy to get to Snowy Range area. Clean house that is well-equipped (except needs a spatula in the Kitchen :-) )
