Nice Cottage Close to Town
Just as advertised, this is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage. It is a detached accessory unit and not a “house”, but provided plenty of privacy, even with the host onsite. Parking is as described, but you do need to maneuver a few gates to get to the front porch. The fenced yard with the firepit looks nice for spending time outside. The gazebo is now enclosed and is used as storage. The kitchen has everything one would need to cook meals. The Keurig in the pictures has been replaced with a coffee maker (which we prefer) with plenty of coffee in the pantry. The pantry and refrigerator both were stocked with supplies, but some of it was dated and should probably be tossed. The futon in the living room was good enough to watch some TV, but as with many futons, it’s not super comfortable as either a bed or a couch. The TV seems to have cable, but we plugged in a laptop by HDMI for streaming. The WiFi worked great. The bed was comfortable. Check in and check out are easy, and the directions for finding the place are good. The area had a country feel that we really liked. There were small ponds and streams running throughout, and the sound of the water flowing was an added surprise. Downtown Bishop was minutes away. It can be hard to find a nice, small, place like this with privacy and it was perfect for us as a couple. The host has prepared the place very well, probably one of the best we’ve seen. We really enjoyed our stay, would stay here again, and highly recommend it.

Nice cozy Bishop cottage
This cottage is perfect for a couple wanting some peace & quiet. It has a full kitchen suitable for those wishing to cook with all the cookware & utensils you'd need. Also a toaster oven & microwave & drip coffee machine. The bed & pillows were quite comfortable. The bathroom had tons of towels, hair dryer, hair straightener, & curling iron (wow!). There seemed to be unlimited quantities of hot water and the heater was more than sufficient to keep the whole place nice & toasty. Best of all, it has a manual thermostat, so the owner isn't controlling the temperature like the last 3 places we've stayed.😊 Kim is an accommodating hostess without being underfoot at all. We would definitely stay again.

A sweet place with lots of home comforts
The cottage is in a nice rural/suburban neighborhood, close to roads that took us where we were going, but not too close to town. Lots of space and quiet, inside and out. The owner, Kim, goes above and beyond to be warm and welcoming. Her attitude is "contact me if you need anything." The place has more towels and various supplies than you could possibly need. She also provides a pantry full of breakfast food, condiments, snacks, oil and vinegar, herbs, beverages (even decaf, thank you!) chocolates, etc. She left a lovely bottle of wine and was just generally a very nice person. (I just wish I hadn't been pressured to buy insurance while making the reservation--I've never had that experience before but is it a new trend on VRBO?)

Cute Little Cottage
Property was difficult to locate for my 86 year old parents who were following the directions given by email. Cottage was very clean, cozy and well stocked. A big plus was that it was just down the street from the hospital which helped after dad had his 4 hour dialysis treatment. My parents loved the welcome basket. Their only complaint was that the bed was not firm enough for them.

Cozy cottage with all of the amenities needed!
Kim was a very gracious host, and has thought of everything travelers might need for a home away from home, including plentiful towels and many kitchen extras, such as cooking oils, spices and condiments. The cozy cottage is perfect for two, with a full kitchen and a separate bedroom and bathroom. The location was a short distance from the main area of Bishop in a quiet neighborhood. It was a very restful and enjoyable place to stay!
