Cozy Cottage...a MUST stay!
My husband and I recently moved to Cedar Rapids and made this cottage our home for 45 days! It was perfect for our little family and had everything we needed. The owners were very responsive and incredibly helpful with whatever we needed. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood near Mount Mercy University and about 10 minutes from downtown!

Exceptional Cottage
This cottage was so much more than we could have asked for! Had trouble getting inside the home so we contacted our host and she had us in within minutes. The problem was with the internet being down. She got the internet provider on the phone immediately and all issues were resolved. The home was immaculate, very inviting and cozy. The beds were so comfortable. We agreed as a family that this will be our home away from home as long as it is available when we return to Cedar Rapids to attend the Iowa game at Kinnick Stadium! Our stay was absolutely perfect!!!

Perfection
This is the second year we have stayed in this home and it was once again perfect. Lynnaya and her husband were super sweet and understanding when we requested an adjustment. The house is always very clean, comfortable and has everything you need. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet; if you need groceries you are minutes away. We will be staying here again when we visit our son at the University of Iowa.

This is such a great house in a central location! Neighborhood was very quiet and all the places we needed to go - Marion, Robins, SE Cedar Rapids, etc. were all within a 10-15 minute drive. The host was extremely welcoming and responsive - I highly recommend this house if you’re in the area!

Lovely place
Booked this last minute for family coming in for a graduation. Great location that is a short drive to any part of CR, Marion, or Hiawatha. Looks to be newly remodeled. Way more spacious than it appears from the outside. Family said it was comfortable for sleeping and gave it a thumbs up. Gorgeous kitchen. Great communication by the owner. Will definitely keep in mind if we need to book a place again.

Great little cottage
We loved our time at this cottage. The owners have done a great job with the remodeling of this property! Everything on the inside has been updated. There are so many little touches that make this property feel like home. It is by far one of the cleanest properties we have every stayed in. They provide all the essentials that many properties don’t. The owner was quick to respond to all questions we had. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a place to stay in Cedar Rapids!
