Summary: We had a great time on our vacation at The Arrogantly Shabby Cottage!It is a beautiful and spacious place for your family. We had plenty of room for all 5 of us! The wrap around porch was my favorite place to be! The owners were wonderful about getting in touch with and answering any questions we had!I would definitely go back, given the option!
