Anniversary Getaway

This is our 3rd (or perhaps our 4th) stay at Red Barn Cottage and we continued to be amazed at all the thoughtful amenities provided. Lynn and Lee pay attention to every detail including fresh-cut flowers, a sweet anniversary card and wine to celebrate our special occasion. This sweet cottage is a quiet, charming and wonderful place to unwind, connect and refresh! Thank you, Lynn and Lee, for pampering us so very well!

Cute & Perfect!

Our two night stay couldn't have been better! This is the cutest little house & the owners (Lynne & Lee) welcomed us with so many extras (a bottle of EXCELLENT red wine, homemade muffins, fresh ground coffee, milk, cream, biscotti, eggs, juice, etc. - all waiting in the refrigerator). The location is an easy walk to restaurants and shops. We'll definitely return!
