Perfect Get-Away to find solitude!
My husband and I needed a few days of quiet and solitude and Janet and her cottage were perfect in every way! The covered porch made for a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy the rain and the birds singing. The bed was so comfortable, the kitchen provided what I needed to cook (one of my ways to unwind), the fireplace was a great addition...Janet thought of everything. The property and the cottage exude peace...just what we needed!

Relaxation
If you want to get it away from it all, this is your place. Relaxing, secluded, and cozy. Nice kitchen, living space and bedrooms. Close to Atchinson which has some really nice places to visit. Weston is loaded with history and 45 minutes away as well. Scenic Drive from Iowa Point to Atchinson HWY 7, is amazing.

Pictures don’t do this house justice. It was extremely clean and had a lot of cool upgrades. There were also snacks and games provided for the kids to enjoy. It is a very quite and neat area. You will not be disappointed staying here!

Great Stay!
Stayed here while visiting St Joseph. Scenic drive from St Joe's. Loved all of the extra touches. A treat upon arrival, sound machines in the bedrooms, toys for the children, coffee, condiments, spices, etc... Highly recommend and will book again when in the area! Thank you, Janet for sharing your home.

Wonderful Cottage
My friend and traveled to this area from Minnesota to watch the spring migration at nearby Loess Bluffs. The property was easy to find, incredibly clean and the listing was accurate. I have stayed in many vrbo’s but this one excelled!! When we arrived the table was set, FP was on and there were muffins ready for the following morning- just like a B&B. We loved the personal touches and the beautiful remodel that has been done to this home! Thank you!!

Wanted to Move In!
My friend and I like to meet somewhere between the states where we live and do jigsaw puzzling weekends, and this place was perfect! So many thoughtful touches we didn't expect and really appreciated. (muffins were provided for breakfast, tons of info about the house and locality, and the owner asked if we'd like additional leaves for the table for our puzzle, which we did and it was just right!) We arrived on a rainy day where travel was a bit stressful, but the house is so warm, inviting and easy to access that we were able to settle in and relax within minutes. On that first rainy day, the fireplace was awesome, and was a special treat the next night when we wanted to relax and watch tv after finishing our puzzle! The kitchen is incredibly well stocked, better than most homes we've rented. The house is beautifully done. Thank you, Janet, for providing such a welcoming, warm respite when we both really needed one! Would love to stay again, if you'll have us! Ann & Betty

Charming Country Cottage
This two bedroom cottage was recently remodeled. It was immaculately clean and the decor was tasteful. The kitchen is small, but well stocked for anyone who wants to cook. The outside decks were a nice addition, as was the front porch swing. The beds were comfortable and each bedroom has a ceiling fan. The gas log fireplace made the living room feel especially cozy. We will stay here again.
