Best experience ever!

We've been using VRBO for 15 yrs and this was by far the best experience!! The hosts thought of everything! We visited around Christmas and they had a beautiful tree and decor that made the home so cozy. I've never had a host provide things like a first aid kit, multiple size baggies, cozy blankets, and so much more. We will definitely be renting this home again! Great experience - you won't be disappointed!!

Exceptional Property

We had a great weekend stay at The Cozy Gray Cottage while visiting family during the holidays. This property was very quiet and comfortable, had everything you'd need for an extended stay and was exceptionally clean. It is in close proximity to restaurants and activities. My family enjoyed the games and the Christmas decorations were a nice touch for the holidays. We definitely plan to stay again when we are back in the area.

The Place To Stay

Comfy, Cozy Cottage was a great place for us to stay while in Erie. The renovation was beautiful. Top-quality upgrades. Very clean place with just about everything you could need for a stay (maybe could have used an Iron and Ironing board, but I digress). Location to everything is great. Easy in and out. Quiet dead-end street (with the exception of an occasional train). Mackenzie was very quick to respond to questions and very interactive. Great place and great hosts make Comfy, Cozy Cottage the place to stay while in Erie!!

Absolute gem of a home

Mackenzie answered all of my first time mom crazy questions about the property kindly and quickly. It was perfect! It’s a lot bigger than I expected from photos although it’s exactly as photos show! Super clean and was able to get to check in early which was great. This place has literally everything you need as if it’s your own home. I loved the tea selections and my husband enjoyed the coffee! Perfect location to EVERYTHING! We got delicious morning snack and drink at casa cafe before heading to the beaches. Beautiful! We hope to be able to book again in the future.

2nd time just as good as the first.

This is my second time staying at the gray cozy cottage house. It's in the center of everything in Erie. You can get to all the attractions within 10-15 mins. This place has all the accommodations my family is used to at home. I love that there are echo devices in each room because we use the white noise sounds during bedtime. Everything is so clean and organized! I definitely look forward to staying again next year!

A Wonderful Stay for our Family :)

The cozy grey cottage was the perfect place for our family to gather for a long weekend and view the total solar eclipse! Mackenzie and Chris were the most impressively organized and helpful hosts and their place is very well equipped and beautifully decorated and taken care of. This was our first time traveling with both our son and our parents and the cottage gave us each our own personal spaces and quality shared space--the back bedroom with its comfy reading nook is A+ for a family with young kids. The backyard was perfect for our little one to safely run around and for us to picnic outside. Needless to say that we had a great time! Both house and hosts are highly recommended by us!
