We have been on another vacation rental site for over five years with over 325 5 star reviews! Our historic property, established in 1865, is very unique, as the front of the property is on the Main Street of Olivet - but the back part of the property, where The Cottage is located, abuts to 200 acres of beautiful private wooded land! Many of our guests report that they see lots of wildlife, including deer, racoons and bunnies - and even wild turkeys! They also often comment on hearing the beautiful bird song in the spring and summer months, as well as the crickets chirping in the backyard pond and the gentle sound of our backyard water fountain. So, we are in the city and in the country at the same time!

Summary: I wanted a weekend getaway and chose this cottage because of its location. It was so close to antique stores and Horrocks that we picked Olivet, and I'm glad we did. The cottage was incredibly cute and relaxing. Upon arrival, we found a lovely wine basket filled with cheese and crackers. The cupboards were stocked with everything we needed to prepare dinner or breakfast. The bedsheets were soft and clean, and the shower was amazing, featuring a huge shower head. Sue did a marvelous job providing details about the area and instructions on how to care for her place. This cottage exceeded any other place we have ever stayed!

Summary: This second story cottage is clean, bright, and full of vintage charm. It overlooks a private yard with beautiful landscaping in the picturesque town of Olivet. The owners Sue and Bob are thoughtful and gracious hosts. They thought of everything you may need to make your stay comfortable. There was a handy house manual on the kitchen table as well as some lovely treats to enjoy during our stay. My husband and I felt right at home. We would happily stay here again, only next time I hope I get the chance to visit with their Labrador puppy, Sherlock.
