    Have stayed here twice before doing another six week stay again. Feels like a second home. Excellent communication with owner, who helped us deal with some minor issues. Kayaking on the pond almost everyday. Love the new larger King size bed in the primary bathroom. Wonderful to have everything on one floor, very accessible.

    Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. The location is just what we wanted. The cottage was so well stocked that we really just needed clothes and food for ourselves. The hosts couldn't have made things easier for us. They also communicated extremely well. Definitely would recommend a stay. We'll try and be back!

    My mom and I agree, we couldn't have chosen a more relaxing place to be. The cottage was immaculate and even better than described. Our stay was very special as it was just the two of us and we now had time to pay attention to each other.The cottage was quiet and offered all the luxuries you could want. We especially enjoyed the proximity to the pond. Kayaking was awesome and peaceful. Often I was the only one on the water. We saw turtles, osprey and 2 bald eagles, not to mention the geese and ducks that made the rounds twice a day! We couldn't have been happier-wish we could have stayed longer!

    This is a well maintained property situated along a pond where you can sit peacefully by or kayak in. All the amenities that are listed in the description are accurate. The owners are very helpful and informative leading up to and during the stay. I would highly recommend staying here!

    Cottage was exactly as described! Bed was comfortable and lake was wonderful. House was well equipped and clean! Only recommendation I would have is to have a couple lounge chairs to enjoy by the lake!

    We truly enjoyed Bella Cottage. It was a great central location for all we wanted to do. It was very clean and well stocked with the neccesary essentials. Very comfortable and easy to figure out how to work all appliances and heating system. The view of Hancock Pond was magnificent from the cottage and had a nice deck from which to enjoy as well! We recommend Bella Cottage completely!
