Quiet lovely place for family gathering

We love the location with the greenery of a small forest to see from balcony and outside bedroom window. So relaxing are the vibes in this beautiful and very clean house. It was a good halfway from East coast meeting place to meet the other grandparents who had our mutual grandkids for vacation and also meet other relatives from Indiana.

A luxury in the country

This home is very comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen, movies and a large TV, comfortable living area, comfortable beds and 2 full private baths. Way more than 2 people could need but made it feel like a real vacation. The owners were responsive and easy to work with. The home is close to Rockville and great hiking at 2 state parks.

So relaxing

My college friend and I honored our 50th friendship-versary with a little getaway and this property worked out perfectly (half-way between both of our homes). Hosts were responsive and helpful. Home was superb cleanliness. We lucked out and had mild weather (in February) and really enjoyed the back deck overlooking a small ravine. Hope to go back!

We had to book last minute due to cancelation of another booking and I am so happy we ended up here! Communication was prompt, quiet neighborhood and very nice place to stay. We did a tour of the county’s covered bridges and some hiking in the area. Overall highly recommend!

New Year's Eve Stay

Property was exactly as promised. We had a wonderful stay over New Year's Eve weekend, with a beautiful view of the wooded ravine out the main windows. Furniture and beds were both clean and comfortable. Kitchen was modern and had everything we needed. I would recommend this location to anyone looking for a quiet weekend getaway.

Fantastic Stay!

We met friends for a long weekend and we were not disappointed. The cottage is everything it purported to be. Very clean and comfortable! Our host, Bob, was very responsive with our request for a crockpot and a quiche dish. Bob was very communicative about our stay. The location is close to Turkey Run SP and Shades SP so we enjoyed hiking. Excellent stay! We look forward to returning when back in southern Indiana. Thanks Bob and Joanne for a great stay!

Great getaway!

It was a beautiful weekend getaway for my husband and I on our 30th anniversary! The hosts were so nice and when I asked for a fire pit to have a romantic fire at night they did not hesitate it and had it all set up and ready to get when we got there. Would highly recommend this vrbo!

Great weekend at the Cozy home!

Super clean and well maintained guest house. Would definitely stay again. My only comment would be to get the wifi network and password prior to getting there. Cell service is poor in the area as a whole for Verizon and Att but we had no trouble after getting the Wi-Fi. Great communication with the owner.

Clean & Quiet

This Vrbo was the cleanest one we’ve ever stayed in! The property is in a “neighborhood,” but very private and quiet. From every window all you see are trees. Was happy to see that the wooden rocking chair in the living room had been replaced by a comfy recliner. It quickly became my husband’s favorite spot. Would definitely stay here again.
