Nice house… loose rugs/ tight rules
We stayed one night.The house was easy to find and access.The house was clean.Two ages of rules… which was a lot but not unreasonable.Beds uncomfortable.Jute rugs, not taped down. Got out of bed early in the morning, still dark outside. Put my feet on the floor getting out of bed- jute rug slid out under my feet, I crashed to the floor… lots of bruises!The thermostat is on lockdown.. set to 74 on a warm night…so a little too toasty for sleep.Also putting frosting on the bathroom door… windows on the door made for an uncomfortable bathroom trip.Also recommend emptying the laundry basket of linens from last stay.

Fresh and clean
The cottage was spotless and updated decor. Perfect location to town. I would strongly suggest another door that is not see thru for the back bathroom. Extremely awkward. Also, the front door needs a curtain for privacy. We hung a towel on it at night. And paper towels would be nice to be able to clean up after yourself.

Great Property & Location
We were in Monroe for my son’s wedding at The Towers at Snows Mill venue. The house was only 9 miles from the venue.
The house had high end finishes and was very clean. It is located on South Broad Street right near downtown Monroe. We were very pleased with the property.

Who wouldn’t want to stay in this adorable place.
What a darling cute place. Had everything you need plus more. Wish we could’ve stayed longer to enjoy sitting on the porch watching the cars go by. Would love to come and stay again.
