Cottage in the Trees

SherryRating, 5 stars10 months ago

Kristi's Cottage in the Trees is comfortable, clean and quiet. We slept so well here! The small house in the shade of the trees is a hidden gem close to Madison and Harvest with shopping and eateries. The bed is comfortable. The shower is a little sensitive for the water temperature adjustment. The shower has good pressure and is on an inline water heater so there's plenty of hot water. The wifi had some ups and downs, but we were ok with that. I loved having a full washer, dryer, big tv and kitchen for our use. The outdoor seating is a very nice bonus too! The driveway has a place to back and turn around so that we were able to drive in and out.

"The Dungeon"-Live Like a King

MichelleRating, 5 stars4 days ago

Wesley was amazing he was so kind. The staff at the shop were all so kind and were always there to help if we needed anything. They informed us of a paint party they were having so our girls could partake. They supplied everything to do so, and it was only 10 bucks for the figure to paint. They had several to chose from. We will most definitely be back to stay at the other place he has called the Vault, we stayed in the dungeon and it was all decked out to look like what it says. You all should make time to stop by and see them at the hobby shop grab some food and have some fun.
