Roomy but cozy cottage for a long weekend stay. Home was super clean and had everything you could need. Even had a set of extra batteries in case the remote died. Lori was quick with replies to questions. One of the top VRBO's we've ever stayed in.

Cottage was perfect for our stay, clean and comfortable. There is a very busy road out front and one night we unfortunately had some loud talkers in the parking lot next to the cottage. However everything else was ideal and we would stay there again!

The Cottage was so nice! Spotless, updated, and in a great location. The owner was a pleasure to work with. If I am ever back in the Forest City area I will definitely book there again. Thank you Lori!

Awesome Cottage!!!

We came to Forest City to watch our son pitch for the Forest City Owls. The cottage was the perfect size, the beds were very comfortable and it was very quiet as well as close to everything in town. The owner, Lori, was very easy to work with and very accommodating. We will definitely stay here again if our son plays for the Owls next summer.

Relax & Enjoy

Very Clean & Quite area to stay in! Met the owner at our arrival to get a walk through in case we had any questions. Close enough to town that we left our vehicle and walked the area which gave us time to walk off some of the treats we ate. Lined up a Carriage Ride through the Internet which was was very enjoyable to see town while someone else did the driving. Highly recommend this location, we will be going back again.

Excellent Stay!!!!

Property exactly as pictured…actually, even better in person. Such a cute place. The owners have thought of everything you could possibly need. The most impressive part was the cleanliness!! I could go on and on and on….and on!! Not a speck of dust. The bathrooms were spotless!!! The kitchen looked like it had never been used. I usually like my towels to smell of Clorox when at a rental…but theirs smelled like fresh laundry from home and it was really nice. I know, I’m a weirdo. Lol! Great rental, lovely owners. ☺️

Nice Apartment-convenient location

1st time visiting Forest City. The rental was perfectly located for the events we were scheduled to attend. Unit was clean, updated (if not brand new). Parking was plentiful but a unique layout. Would highly recommend this property to other visitors.

This fit the needs for my wife and I and our son. We were in town for the Dixie Grand and this was perfect. 15 minutes away. Comfortable and allowed room for relaxation after long days. Not even comparable to a hotel.

stunning modern cottage

the pictures on VRBO really don't do this place justice :) It is beautifully remodeled and spacious, with a few charming details maintained - more like a house than a cottage. Plenty of parking, the AC was perfect and the bed REALLY comfortable.
