About this property

Full House: Hillsdale Cottage. Walking Distance to College! Across from Handmade

Looking to stay for an extended period (Ex: for summer programs at the college, but you prefer not to stay in a dorm)? Greatly reduced, flat nightly rates available for negotiation--just inquire and we can find something that works for us both!

This recently renovated yet full-of-character cottage offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort, with original architecture, cozy interiors, and a welcoming porch. Ideal for both short- and long-term stays, with a fully stocked kitchen, four comfortable beds (two queens, two twins), and inviting living spaces.

Nestled in a peaceful neighborhood, you’ll be within walking distance of Hillsdale College and directly across from Handmade, the town’s beloved sandwich shop. Enjoy all the perks of a hotel—without the noise! No campus construction noise, no neighboring rooms—just the warmth and privacy of a home.

Whether you’re visiting for work, study, or a quiet getaway, this charming cottage provides everything you need for a relaxing stay.

Decent well stocked

Older house fixed up decent; reasonably comfortable, and well stocked with misc needs and kitchen extras.Responsive communication with owner.Owner obviously cares about making a nice rental property for a reasonable price.Neighborhood decent, with single exception of the neighbors across the street. No drama or anything, but not a good property to look at and they let one of their many cars alarm go off all night for one of our 2 nights there. Probably not a recurring thing.
Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025
