Daisy, Pennsylvania
susan is a great host & her listing made my partner and I feel right at home. she went above and beyond with helping me create a memorable birthday weekend for my partner. would definitely recommend!
Christopher, California
Susan’s cottage is supremely comfortable and serene. Nestled into the woods we felt immediately at home in the super cozy space. The bed was sooo comfy. And Arden is an AMAZING community/neighborhood. It’s so beautiful and calm with lots of paths through nature, beautiful houses, and really friendly people. If you’re looking for a place to relax, decompress, and be surrounded by nature while only a few minutes drive from grocery stores, etc. this is the place.

The little cabin has everything you need and is nice and peaceful in a closed little compound in woodsy Arden. Susan is very responsive and helpful. An outstanding stay!
