Gorgeous two bed cottage with beautiful outlook
We booked this cottage, wanting something comfortable where we could stay put for at least a week (having been on the road for over six weeks, camping, fishing, touring national parks). We also wanted to be close to good fishing.
The property was everything we could have asked for.
The cottage is a spacious authentic two bedroom cottage with all the charm of yesteryear but with all the convenience of modern ammenities. Ducted heating, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and, free wifi and Netflix!
The outlook from the back deck (complete with barbecue) was just magical, looking towards the distant farm buildings and the snow capped mountains behind. Twice during our stay we saw deer under the apple tree directly adjacent to the deck.
The front deck looks out over tall trees and the working ranch entrance and each morning cows were grazing in the paddock right outside the kitchen window.
The place was spotless, recently completely renovated and it showed. The bed in our room was very comfortable. There were lots of nice touches, fresh flowers on arrival, magazines and books to read. Many staples were provided such as tea/coffee, salt/pepper, all dish cleaning products, garbage bags.
Our host Kristina was so welcoming and provided us with tickets to the Daly Mansion, literally a ten minute walk down the road (a must see). Kristina was also a great source of information about local attractions, such as Hamilton Farmers Markets, Lake Como etc. both our fa we enjoyed.
The cottage is just minutes from the town of Hamilton, and this is a big plus, as most of the other towns along the valley do not have as much infrastructure. Hamilton has at least three supermarkets as well as other daily needs shops.
And Hamilton is sort of in the middle of the well travelled fishing routes, so, you can decide to head north or south each day and still be in the midst of the fishing areas.
We were so comfortable and loved the outlook, it was hard to leave. Can whole heartedly recommend this place as a pretty place to stay, and as a great base to make fishing forays from. Would go back any time.
