8/10 Good
"Location was perfect! Being right on the beach was amazing and just what we were looking for. BBQs were not useable and cottages were run down and not very clean. I realized upon check-in that there was no bedding. When I reached out to the owner, they indicated that they sent a message the day prior to let us know to bring our own bedding, toilet paper, paper towel, etc. I didn’t see the message because I was mid-flight from B.C. and would have appreciated knowing ahead of time. They did provide bedding after we contacted them but it wasn’t clean so we needed to wash it first. Including this informing the listing would have been nice. They also requested that we switch our dates after the booking had already been accepted. We needed to coordinate with other family who had also booked vacation homes to make the new dates work. The owner appreciated us making this change and left us a thank you upon our arrival. My family had an amazing time overall as the location was unbeatable!!"
