Lots of potential

Posted Aug. 22, 2023 on HomeAway
The cottage had a lovely rustic feel on a nice quiet lake. There is a lot of potential to this place. We had issues with the plumbing while we were there. David did compensate us for the issues.

A slice of rustic paradise

Posted Aug. 6, 2023 on HomeAway
If you love the feel of a wooden floor under your feet, the sound of a kayak paddle splashing into the water, the sound of loons in the night, then this is the place for you. It’s a nature lovers’ kind of cottage, where you can truly unplug and appreciate the quiet. It has handy amenities like a griddle, spices and any utensil you could hope for. Thank you David for sharing your slice of paradise! Lorna, Dave and Bennett

Quiet & relaxing

Posted Jul. 22, 2023 on HomeAway
It’s a nice spot. It needs a little maintenance but we weren’t looking for luxury we were there to fish and enjoy the outdoors. The fishing was great, overall we had a great time.

Hidden Paradise

Posted Jun. 15, 2023 on HomeAway
We really enjoyed our stay at the log cabin. Nice drive down a dirt road that has some rocks to watch out for but leads to a great spot. The cabin itself is spacious and stocked with everything you need for a long stay. Lots of animal sounds at night and some sightings during the day. The lake is clear and perfect for kayaking/swimming. Will definitely be coming back very soon - 100% recommend this listing.

Not what it seems

Posted Aug. 23, 2022 on HomeAway
The listing was very misleading. Upon arrival, we found the only bathroom sink to be not working correctly, it spewed water when turned on, the only shower faucet leaked and the toilet ran which we were instructed to turn off the valve for that. As we had booked for 4 days, my family needed to be able to wash at some point but couldn't so by the end of the week we were all in serious need of a shower and very uncomfortable. This is a huge hygienic problem which should have been repaired before being rented to us as we booked back in April. The owner informed us upon arrival, with written instructions, that we should stow our dried food so that mice would not be attracted which we did, in totes we brought, but every night once the lights went out the cabin was infested with them. My husband had to set traps that he went to buy. To add to the disappointment, the ad stated swimming was an option but when we went to do so, there were leaches everywhere and one attached to my daughter leading us to avoid that for the week. We paid a lot of money for such a disappointing time. What was supposed to be relaxing turned out to be frustrating and stressful. The property, while beautiful, was not upkept with long grass and garbage from previous renters as well. I expected all the amenities that were listed in the listing to be available and they were not. These are only a few of the frustrating issues we encountered during our stay. In the end I would definitely not recommend renting this cabin. The owner was easy to communicate with but sadly he either doesn't have to time, money, or knowledge of how to fix these issues.

I appreciate the feedback Shannon. The Cabin is in the middle of the woods and on a beautiful calm and quiet spring fed lake. Depending on the time of the year, the "weeds" actually bloom brilliant flowers during different moths that attract all kinds of wild life. An abundance of Fireflies in late June for example. I used to keep the property neat (fully cut). I stopped last year and noticed that letting nature do what it does brought out the best. Depending on the time of year. Sorry your month wasn't great for the weeds but April/May/June/July are brilliant. Guests in from May to July of course deal with bugs. August. Not so much. Trade offs! The Cabin is going through renovations. Many others have thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Through incremental improvement I appreciate your candor. There is work to be done. Problems with plumbing are noted and recent. I am working to have this resolve ASAP however securing the recourses is not as quick and simple as it seems. Thanks again, Dd
