Wonderful views, clean, great inside and out. The sunrise, vineyard and rolling hills views were wonderful. The owner was very kind to stop by and make sure we received a bottle of the wine he made from the grapes in the Vineyard. I could stay there for weeks.

Amazing Cabin with Amazing Views
Can't say enough about our stay at Bird Cottage. It was the best. The cabin is delightful and the views breathtaking. Would love to come back in the fall just to see the view when the trees are changing colors. We loved sitting out on the front porch and watching the birds. So many different varieties (and we're not even birdwatchers). We also saw deer, rabbits, squirrels, and even a raccoon who literally walked 15 feet from us when we were enjoying a fire in the firepit. The cabin itself was exceptionally clean and comfortable with plenty of room for the two of us. Our pup loved long walks up the lane or around the vineyard. Doesn't get much better than Bird Cottage.

Beautiful private cottage perfect for bird lovers
My husband and I stayed here with our small dog over a weekend. Unfortunately we were there on a particularly bitter cold and windy weekend, but despite that it was a wonderful time. The views are incredible, both on the drive there and at the cottage on the deck. Tons of bird feeders, complete with bird books and binoculars in the house, make it the perfect spot for those who appreciate nature. Our dog had the best time running around the property, we took a walk down by the vineyard at sunrise which was beautiful. Everything was impeccably clean, and there was plenty of everything we needed. We will definitely be back for another visit during a warmer time of year!

Great Family Getaway from the City
The entire property was just as expected! The pictures are 100% accurate. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is fully stocked, and the layout of the house is adorable/perfect. We were also so happy to see some snow during the New Years weekend. We had a blast sledding down the side of the property! Jolene was super helpful during the booking process and answered all of my questions and requests.

Great Getaway
Had a very nice stay at Bird Cottage. The house is clean and well stocked with some essentials. Master bed very comfortable. Bottle of wine upon arriving! Instructions and directions from the manager very clear and helpful. Views were wonderful from every window and on the deck. Even my 10-year-old Lab who gets anxious in new places was calm by the second day. Galena just a short 10-minute drive. Really enjoyed my stay at this peaceful cottage and would stay again.

Stay at the Bird cottage
Such a peaceful and relaxing stay, that gets you away from the big city feeling, and appreciate all that a countryside provides, star gazing, bird watching, deer, cows, beautiful sunrises, wine from the vineyard, and evening campfire. If you are looking for a peaceful place to get away from your daily hustle this is the place for you.
