We had the pleasure of staying in the Cairo Cottage. Even during a very cold, windy, and snowy spell the cottage was warm and comfortable. We loved the decor and amenities. It is well stocked and larger than it appears in the photos. Host was very nice.

Great, accessible, relaxing stay!
LOVED this little studio! I went back home for holiday events and just wanted something private and easy. This place is perfect for one or two people to enjoy. Well thought out and sensible with amenities. Nicely converted space that is comfortable, separate from the main living area, and felt very tucked away. In a very easily accessible space within Springfield. Appreciated being able to park at the end of a long driveway. Good lighting, very clean, nice materials and furniture. Enjoyed every bit of it!

Weekend in Springfield
My husband and I enjoyed staying at the Cairo Cottage! It was a perfect size for just the two of us, very clean and everything was labeled or outlined in the binder. Location was great - only a few minutes from anywhere we wanted to go. We would definitely stay here again.

Very nice for our short stay
We stayed here the night before my wedding and the morning of the wedding (to use a getting ready space). It was a nice size for what we used it for, though we did need to do all the hair in the kitchen as you can only plug in curling irons and hair dryers at specific outlets in the kitchen and bathroom (the bathroom was a bit too small to accommodate multiple people). The house was very picturesque and perfect for pictures.

Cute cottage. Perfect for the two of us. Very clean. Comfortable bed. Well located for our activities in Springfield. The only negative - and it wasn’t a big deal for us - was no DVD player for the TV.
