Beautiful Weekend
What a PERFECT place to spend my husbands 51st birthday! This cozy cottage may be “little” by physical measures but it holds big memories for us. Not only was the cottage absolutely spectacular, but the views from the porch as the sun came up and went down each day were simply breathtaking. The hosts were super helpful and quick to respond to our questions. Mentone is a magical little town, we met the friendliest people here and even made a new furry friend that we named “Roy”…the local farm dog who shared a couple breakfasts with us. We can’t wait to come back and stay at The Happy Cow Cottage again.

Happy Cow Cottage
The property was adorable but we did experience some challenges. The primary main floor bedroom had drawers/storage area that smelled like cat pee. There is a moisture problem. We saw black mold around the baseboards near the washing machine in the main bedroom, which may be the culprit on the odors. The shower also has not been property cleaned; orange mold was growing in the shower. Lastly the cooling units were unable to properly cool the cottage. We did communicate these items to the owner with pictures. We tried our best to return the unit better than we found it.

Best possible experience
First things first. In my 33 years on this earth I have never met property managers that go above and beyond like Seth did. Long story short we showed up late and had zero water because of the freeze. Seth was able to find us another property within 24 hours that was liveable for us and the kids. Also they refunded our first night for the trouble and even offered a cancelation for the problems. However, they slam dunked this deal. They set us up at another property and we were able to enjoy our Christmas in the mountains. The tiny homes are spotless, very clean and very inviting. We stayed in two of their properties so we're speaking for the property named Delilah as well. The happy cow cottage was very nice with antique fixtures and plenty of space for a tiny home. Check in was easy and you really felt at peace with the surroundings. It was awesome waking up and seeing the cow fields right out of the window. My kids thoroughly enjoyed the scenery and the set up at both locations. Delilah was very nice as well. Even had a dish washer which we appreciated. Everything felt new and it was so clean we felt like we were the first tenants knowing good and well we were not. Speaking on the property managers they gave us a list of things to do in the area to include locations and times, and even helped me find a grocery store on Christmas eve so I could stock pile for Christmas day. All in all I will 100% be reaching out to book with them in the future. I have never had such a great experience on VRBO before. We throurougly enjoyed staying in their tiny home. Seth and Emmy thank you for a great Christmas weekend.
