Notes from the host
Kelly's Comfortable Quinton Home
Welcome to Kelly’s Cottage, a charming retreat nestled among century-old oaks in a peaceful neighborhood. This cozy, mid-20th-century brick rancher offers a warmth and comfort you won’t find in modern homes. Enjoy a cup of cocoa by the bonfire in spring or fall, or explore nearby attractions, including local wineries, restaurants, microbreweries, and Civil War battlegrounds. Pet-friendly with a spacious backyard, Kelly’s Cottage is the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the area’s beauty!
Welcome to our charming and inviting home! As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a cozy living room designed for relaxation, complete with a television for your entertainment. From here, a hallway leads to three comfortable bedrooms: two with queen-sized beds and a third with a twin-over-twin bunk bed—perfect for families or friends. A full-sized bathroom is conveniently located nearby for your comfort.
The spacious kitchen is a chef's dream, fully stocked with cookware, utensils, and everything you need for preparing meals or baking treats. Whether you're cooking a hearty breakfast or experimenting with a new recipe, you'll find it all here. For your convenience, a half bath is also located just off the kitchen.
Continue through the home to discover a second living area, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploration. We also offer a laundry room equipped with everything you need to freshen up your wardrobe during your stay, along with exercise equipment to help you stay active. Don’t forget to enjoy the tranquil backyard, where a lovely deck and comfortable outdoor furniture await—perfect for relaxation and enjoying the fresh air.
The kitchen is stocked with essentials to make your stay even more enjoyable. Help yourself to coffee with both a regular coffee maker and K-cup pods provided, along with creamer, sugar, and other fixings. Spices are available for your culinary needs, and the cabinets are filled with dishes, glasses, silverware, cooking utensils, pots, pans, and baking sheets—everything you need to feel at home. You can also take advantage of the gas grill located just outside the back door for a fun barbecue.
For your comfort, bath towels, hand towels, and face cloths are provided, neatly arranged in baskets in each bedroom. Additional bedspreads and pillows can be found in the master bedroom closet, and cozy throw blankets are available under the TV in the living room.
We hope you enjoy every moment of your stay and feel right at home in our thoughtfully designed space!
You will have access to the entirety of the home and property with the exception of two hospitality closets in the hallway.
