This property is exceptional and really special! I didn’t want to leave and wished I had booked it longer. The owners are just as special as the space they’ve created! It’s cozy, warm, historic, interesting, creative and convenient. I enjoyed the hiking trails nearby, the restaurants and easy access to see friends and family!

We loved the Crane's Cottage. The atmosphere is lovely, bed comfy, and it feels like a warm nook to relax in. Hosts were responsive and helpful. We were there in November so we weren't able to partake of the environs. It sits next to a number of municipal buildings but it is shielded by trees and a fence and we never heard a thing! Walking distance to a very good little Italian restaurant that we enjoyed twice!

Convenient and unique

The cottage is situated on beautiful grounds and it was a great location for visiting family. The cottage itself was musty, which can cause breathing issues. The bed on the platform was a little difficult to maneuver, especially at night. There’s a nice deck off of the living room that we enjoyed at breakfast.
