Response from the owner We love hosting our "newbie" guests as well as we do our seasoned travelers. For the same reasons, we want all to feel at home during your stay and for your experience with us to be exceptional!! We are thrilled that J and Deb's 1st booking of a vacation rental home was a 5-Star experience! Our mission was accomplished!! J and Deb were an absolute pleasure to host and we are always thankful when concerns are brought to our attention. We do our best to make accommodations when we can and moving the mechanical lift chair into the spare room was an easy-peezy solution. We hope to see these 2 friends again and again and highly recommend them to any vacation rental host -you will not be disappointed! Side note -Though The Red Cottage does not meet ADA guidelines we do have special features that make accessibility less cumbersome for guests who are "not as agile" and for those who require a cane or walker to assist with ambulation. There are no steps from the paved driveway to the main entrance. Inside we have an open floor plan and can modify the bathrooms with assistive devices if requested. Please review our property description for details. Happy travels!
