♥ A NOTE FROM YOUR HOSTS
The Cunningham Cottage is a labor of love. It was originally nothing more than a 2-car garage. Out of a desire to care for our aging parents, we lovingly built the studio into what it is today. A lot of good memories were made in this home and we hope you can feel traces of that love-filled history during your stay. We look forward to meeting you!
Sincerely,
Gayla + Terry
