Liked: Cleanliness
The cottage was very lovely. The gameroom is great. It is attached to (I am assuming) the host's home but still very private. It has its own courtyards and driveway. It was very easy to find and easy access to Covington. The host was very nice and responded almost instantly to my messages.
