    Staying here felt like crashing with a super nice friend—cozy beds, well-appointed kitchen, and that backyard view? Perfection for a quick getaway. The hosts were quick to reply and even left welcome snacks. We’d book again in a heartbeat!The place was loaded with extras—towels stacked high, comfy bedding, extra blankets and pillows galore, seriously, they thought of everything! And that heated garage? Total game-changer for dodging Indiana’s chilly weather. Super cozy vibe, felt like home!

    This beautiful home is tucked into a quiet neighborhood in central Carmel. The back deck overlooks a pond, and was screened with shrubbery from other properties. One could easily walk to all that downtown Carmel has to offer in terms of culture, dining and events. We felt very comfortable here, and would recommend it for other couples. With two bedrooms and baths, it would be perfect for two couples traveling together.

    We were in town for a ball tournament at Grand Park. The house was close to the ball fields, the neighborhood was very cute and the house was even cuter. There's a pond in the back yard stocked with fish and my son had a blast fishing. The Carmel farmers market was within walking distance as well as many other shops. We will definitely try to stay here again next time.

    Great location. The home was clean and very comfortable. The perfect size for our girls getaway. The highlight is the deck overlooking the pond. Happy hour was so much more fun out there as was our morning coffee!! The location was perfect for us. Close to Arts & Design District -had lunch and shopped and walked back down the Monon Trail. Over to the shops behind the hotel and thoroughly enjoyed a rainy Saturday. Market was too wet in the a.m - we are saving that for our next trip! Also we went to Zionsville and loved that area just as much. So much to do and great food everywhere we ate. If you want to be close enough to walk to restaurants and shops but in a quiet well kept home - this Cozy Cottage is perfect!

    I've rented many properties through Vrbo. Most of them were good --a couple of them were disappointments--this was the BEST property we've ever rented. The home was clean, safe, great location, and John and Becky were wonderful hosts. The property was as advertised and exceeded our expectations. Will rebook this property when we return to Carmel.

    This is a great house. 2 large bedrooms with closets. Bathrooms were very clean. We loved the kitchen, eating area and living room. TV's streaming via RUKO or Firestick. There were plenty of outlets and many that USB outlets. There was a printer to use on a rolling desk to conduct business if needed. A nice patio with grill overlooking a pond. The house was well equipped and instructions in a master book or placed in the needed area. The kitchen was well stocked. The garage was clean and a remote opener was even provided. John & Becky communicated in advance and even at the start and end of our stay. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe. The property is well groomed. It was easy access to downtown Carmel, shopping, restaurants and highways.
