This wonderful, quiet neighborhood feels a world away from the hustle and bustle, yet has easy access to anything you could need within a 5 minute drive. It was like stepping into a storybook. I was immediately struck by the thoughtful, tasteful decor that perfectly captured the essence of southern hospitality. The living room was cozy and inviting, with plush seating, warm wood tones, and antique accents that made me feel right at home. I loved the large windows that let in an abundance of natural light. The kitchen was an absolute delight. The gleaming stone countertops were a beautiful contrast to the crisp white cabinetry, I especially appreciated the hot water on demand and the split mini A/C unit kept the whole cottage at the perfect, cool temperature, no matter how hot it got outside. Overall, my stay at Julius and Caroline's cottage was an absolute delight from start to finish.If you're looking for a truly unique and authentic southern getaway, look no further - this is it!

Absolutely Love and Adore this tiny home! It was perfect for my husband and I to get away. It’s situated behind the main house but still easy to find. Nice, quiet, walkable neighborhood. Also loved the kitchen and that the fridge has an ice maker. Julius and Caroline were responsive and kind. Such a Beautiful home. Would love to stay again.

Can not speak highly enough about Julius & his home. Well equipped and as described in the listing. We had a slight mechanical issue, and Julius had workers there within a few hours, even on a holiday weekend. Excellent communication and customer service. I highly recommend & we plan to stay again. Thank you!
