Nice property but not cleaned.

We enjoyed our stay, the property had good space and the beds were really comfortable. You can’t beat the view on the water! We were unfortunately dissatisfied with the cleanliness of the property, if it was cleaned before we arrived it wasn’t apparent at all. We found the dishes smelt, the dishwasher was full & had food on the dishes, we found broken glass on the property & cigarettes all around. There weren’t any extra garbage bags that we could find to use, no towels in the house or extra toiletries incase a guest forgot something. These extra touches would have gone along way, the kitchen isn’t stocked well so if preparing food plan ahead & assume what you need, isn’t there. The host responded quickly & answered any questions we had, we appreciate that. We had a nice stay but would have like the property better managed and equipped with supplies!

Everything was good, and we enjoyed our one-night stay. However, a few small improvements could be made, such as the towels and kitchen supplies.

Bare bones, no cleaning supplies, dirty kitchen, overflowing garbage.

If you’re looking for a cottage with a responsive host and basic supplies (kitchen items, cleaning spray etc), this isn’t the place for you. Overall, we made the best of our stay and had a good time but there were a few reasons I wouldn’t recommend this stay. (I also never leave negative reviews, but this is warranted). Firstly, I’m convinced that the host has never been to this property. There was one roll of paper towel, no basic kitchen items, dirty bbq, no cleaning supplies and the garbage was full and overflowing when we got there. There were a number of notices from the town and neighbors on proper garbage disposal and actually removing garbage properly. The pots and pans were all incredibly dirty, we had to buy our own. There was no tinfoil or parchment paper. I think this should have been disclosed in the listing so we could at least come prepared. The host also called me by the wrong name in our communications, which I did not appreciate. There was also no check out instructions. The location is good, right by a public beach though. The view is beautiful, the lake itself is very mushy, though. I’m sharing this review so other visitors can either proceed with caution, and if so,can know what to expect and prepare better for their stay.

We had an amazing experience at this property. The lakefront view and the patio is enough to keep you entertained. The bbq grill was clean and ready to use. The firepit had enough propane to get us going throughout the night. We really had a lot of fun. Would definitely be visiting again.

One Day Weekend Getaway

There were negatives and positives to the stay. Ill start with the positives: The location is beautiful attached to the lake. The inside of the house was very clean. The host is a fast responder. Negatives: Some of the things did not come as advertised in the posting. The description mentioned canoe and paddle boats and that we could use it at our own risk, but there was only one paddle boat that was broken. The place was not well stocked- example -no shampoos, the BBQ grill was very very dirty. Seemed like it wasnt clean for a while. Also the host doesn't actually seem to know what is actually available at the location. She was a great communicator but had minimal information to give us. Overall experience was good, but a suggestion to ask the host about availability of everyday basic needs before making the trip.

Nice and quiet cottage

Great and clean cottage that sleeps 9. Nice deck overlooking the lake and sunset and the public beach in the distance. Many dishes in cabinets, air fryer, microwave and utensils to host a meal. Close to the downtown where you can walk to a cafe, ice cream shop and a couple of restaurants. Would stay again.

This place was everything we needed - lakeside with all of the conveniences of home. Clean, accessible, and we caught at least a hundred fish right off the dock. Would definitely stay here again!

What a great place!

The dock and patio are perfect for watching the sunset or enjoying the rays. You can either walk to the beach or peddle boat to it in about 5mins. The cottage was clean and the linens were fresh. Host was great at response time too! I would recommend this cottage.
