Wiffen Cottage located just a 3 minute walk to the sandy public beach!
2 bedroom Wiffen Cottage is located a 15 minute drive north of Goderich, Ontario in tiny the lake-side village of Port Albert and just a 2-4 minute walk to the sandy, public beach. We will only host guests seeking a quiet stay. Guests that intend to stay up late and drink excessively are not welcome. Please be aware of our cottage rules and booking policies before booking. It is a 2-4 minute walk to conservation area, the waterfalls, and the Port Albert General Store. It has full kitchen facilities (no dish washer), deck, as well as a private yard with chimney firepit for small campfires. We provide the camp fire wood. It has a gas fireplace. The beach in Port Albert is a beautiful, quiet, sandy beach with amazing sunsets! The Nine Mile River meanders through the tiny village of Port Albert. The access to the Nine Mile River is a 1 minute walk from the cottage. The cottage has DVD, satellite and TV. There is a BBQ. We provide the propane for the bbq. The bedroom on the main level has a Queen bed. The bedroom on the second level has a double bed. The Port Albert General Store provides gas, take out food and fresh produce. Just bring your food and personal items because all bedding, linens, towels, soaps provided. However we provide beddings, linens, and towels for the beds and guests in the 2 bedrooms only. At this cottage we do not allow pets. There is parking for 2 vehicles. Sleeps 4 people.
Where to start? The owner called me to let me know that they cottage was ready for me and to advise me that his car broke down in the driveway and that he would remove it "at some point". Well he didn't remove it and where his car was parked was the direct path to the cottage so I had to maneuver around his car to unpack my overpacked car.
The cottage smells terrible; a musty smell.
Now onto the beds....the bed on the main floor (the queen) is rock hard and you tilt to the right. luckily I brought my own bedding. The bedding that they had on the bed was stained and had been mended with iron on patches. Gross! The comforter has not been washed for years (I'm guessing). The pillows were disgusting and should not have been on the bed at all. Again, thankfully, I brought my own pillows. I was told by my friend that her accommodations upstairs were not any different. The upstairs has a huge slant on the stairs so be prepared to bump your head.
There is no air conditioning on the main floor so be prepared for that!
The outside furniture has never been cleaned so make sure you bring lots of cleaning supplies.
The kitchen is so old and disgusting that we didn't even cook.
I would NEVER recommend this place and I truly wish that I could get my money back.
My friend and I didn't even stay for the entire 5 days; we left a day earlier. I couldn't stand it any longer it was so disgusting.
I could be that this cottage is meant for people who hunt or fish. I'm not sure but, for me, I was disgusted.
