Cozy place!

Great place but was not aware the of how close the other houses were. The cabin behind us which was called "exceeds expectations" was very loud playing music until 3 am. We were not happy about that. Other than that, it was a nice place. Enjoyed the hot tub!

Mixed Bag - Needed to be cleaned outside as wet piled up leaves and acorns were very dangerous on walkways and decks. Mouldy, musty smell throughout house. However, sheets, towels, and bathrooms were clean.

Great cottage, bad hot tub

The hot tub was the main reason for the booking and it was not usable - half full and too many chemicals. We were told that we would be refunded for the hot tub fee. That has not happened. Great cottage - 5 stars. No hot tub - 1 star. Total 3 stars
