Great host. Excellent communication. Clean house with a fully stocked kitchen and bathroom. Nicely decorated, comfy bed, lots of space. The internet was good, and we appreciated being so close to the school. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. The only downside was that we like to watch tv in bed before we go to sleep and neither bedroom had a tv in it. Good tv in the living room.

Mark is an amazing host. Excellent communication. Breakfast items left specifically for us in the fridge were a most appreciated gift. Kitchen had everything we needed. Those considering the property should know that the two bedrooms and the bathroom are upstairs. Beds were comfortable and both rooms had ample space. Instructions for tv use and streaming services were clear and easy to find. Neighborhood is a bit rundown but we did not feel at all unsafe.

All the comforts of home!

We had a great experience with Mark and loved staying at the Haworth Cottage! It was the perfect location for catching up with our Millikin student and enjoying downtown Decatur. Communication and accessibility were excellent and our stay was much better than a hotel. We are eager to visit again!

Loved our stay! Older home but sweet '60-'70 vibe. Cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The wrap around patio could be a great place to hangout. It was just too hot while we were there. Such a sweet touch to have breakfast foods to prepare in the fridge.

A very cute Cottage

Overall, Haworth Cottage is wonderful...the house has lots of cozy charm & we loved all the eclectic decor, very fun! It probably should be mentioned the bedrooms & bath are upstairs, in case someone has knee issues. And not sure it's completely safe to walk the area at night, but daytime seems okay. Very close to Millikin and would be a delight for anyone visiting the University.

Decatur cottage

The house and grounds were adorable and well taken care of. We appreciated the breakfast supplies. I was a little worried not hearing from the host until the night before on check in and out procedures, but that may be standard. Overall it was a great experience.

Comfy and charming

Cute little house with nostalgic charm. We traveled over Thanksgiving to visit our daughter. We had a small thanksgiving dinner with her. The kitchen was well stocked with breakfast items for us which save a trip to the grocery store! The bed was comfy and we had lots of room. Wasn’t sure about the neighborhood, but we felt safe inside and it was too cold to be outside anyway.

My daughter and I stayed here while visiting Millikin University. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owner even left breakfast fixings for us in the fridge! I recommend this if visiting Decatur. So much nicer than a hotel room!
