This Little Cottage was absolutely perfect. It was close to everything, shopping, fishing, Lakefront, all things. The kitchen was equipped with all things needed for cooking, & more. We loved staying here, & Mrs. Rebecca was so sweet. Can’t wait to visit again & stay.

We had such a wonderful stay at this quaint private cottage in the heart of Mandeville. The space was incredibly clean, quiet, and thoughtfully set up for a relaxing retreat. The big screen TV was perfect for unwinding at night with any streaming service we wanted, and all of the cookware and the dishwasher worked great — everything felt seamless and easy.Rebecca was so accommodating and even came out to say hello, which was such a warm touch. It was clear she would have gladly supported us with any hospitality needs, but everything was so flawless that we truly didn’t need a thing.All in all, it was a pleasant, stress-free stay, and we would absolutely return. Highly recommend!

This cottage was a nice, quiet respite to come back to after a long day of visiting family and towns nearby. It provided everything I needed, and the bed was super comfy! It is close to shops and restaurants by the lake. Book this place!!!
