Very Relaxing, Immaculate Accommodations
Grandma’s Cottage was exactly what we needed ! It was very quiet, with many nice hiking trails, fishing spots, stores & restaurants just a short drive away. The cottage was so clean & comfortable, with a beautiful lake setting. Everything we needed and more was provided. Helen & TJ were great hosts & take great pride in maintaining Grandma’s Cottage. They were very friendly & right next door if we needed anything…yet gave us our privacy. We’ve already booked a return trip. You won’t be disappointed if you book a getaway to Grandma’s Cottage !!

Grandma's Cottage - Nostalgic, Quaint, Clean and Accommodating.
We had a wonderful long weekend stay at Grandma's Cottage. We had traveled from Lancaster County, Pa in an antique vehicle for a car show at the Dover Speedway. Although our daily commute was aprox 25 minutes, it was worth the drive to the Cottage. We spent our evenings at the Dining table eating, playing games and enjoying the view of the Lake. The stillness of the property and the ducks floating up and down the Lake reminded us to just be still and enjoy peace and quiet from our normal routine. Grandma's China Cupboard had a fascinating display of old dishes - like they were ready to put out if Grandma was expecting company. The Hosts live next door, but it still felt private. Best suited for two adults. If you are into kayaking, please check ahead for water level as this time it was too low at the dock. If we are ever in the area again, this is where we would want to stay.

Relaxing stay at Grandmas Cottage
Grandmas Cottage looks exactly like the pictures, but is bigger inside. I have to say every inch of this cottage was immaculate. The grounds and gardens are welcoming. The outside chairs facing the lake are a great spot to read, drink your morning coffee or watch geese and ducks. Stores and restaurants easy to find. Self check-in and basic rules for check out easy to follow. Kudos to Helen & Walter for providing such a comfortable place to stay. I highly recommend and would rent again.

Home away from home
We were in town for the Time of Harvest conference at Lighthouse Church. Grandmas Cottage was perfect! It was clean, cozy and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the stay so much that we are planning to stay again the next time we visit Milford. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Fall Get Away
I have stayed at several short stay rentals in the Milford area and Grandma’s Cottage is by far my favorite. The cottage is quaint with all the essentials. I loved being on the lake with the calls of the Canadian geese. The fall colors were spectacular. It was just what I was looking for.

We loved the beauty of the surroundings, and the peace and quiet that make it a very restful place. We met the hosts and they were very hospitable and kind. The views of the lake provide wonderful opportunities for sketching and painting—and for simply enjoying! And, the cottage itself is beautifully decorated and very welcoming.
