Great location. Kitchen was tiny but worked, although being height challenged I couldn’t reach the top shelf where the coffee maker was and I didn’t see a step stool. Also I suggest a shower mat, the shower floor was slippery and could be a hazard. The only other thing, there were no pillow cases for the fold out couch pillows. I didn’t use the upstairs bed, so I took the pillows with cases from there. The spiral stairs were smaller than they looked in the photos and a bit much for me, especially for the middle of the night bathroom trips. I’m old! All in all a nice stay.

We enjoyed our 15 night stay at the Headlands Cottage. The location is excellent. The layout of the cottage was lovely and the cottage was very quiet. The cottage was relatively clean but not perfect. We had some trouble with spiders in the sleeping loft. Also, all the windows were dirty. The tv worked quite erratically, one day Samsung Chanels worked another day they didn't. The same for cable channels. The kitchenette was minimal. It needs some updating, including new burners. The refrigerator was very small and had a broken plastic insert for milk. It's probably great for someone who is staying for a long weekend. With all this said, loved the location and would return.

Wonderful location. Private and quiet, but just a short walk to town. Literally a stone’s throw to beautiful Headlands State Park.
