A Perfect Muskoka Retreat

If you're after a rustic country cottage experience, this rental is right in the woods and perfect for you. The three delightful cottages that border each other can host as many as eighteen people giving a lot of room for people travelling as a group or a number of families at the same time. We had so much fun here at this cabin that we plan on visiting it again next year

When we got there, there was a lot of stuff that was clearly old and worn down, broken. The drying rack in the kitchen was covered in black mold, all of the dishes were dirty when we went to use them. The bathroom door in the yellow cottage did not close. The main cottage the red one had no hot water.

Fire safety hazard, black mold and owner who lied!

Not only was this place a fire hazard with no working smoke detectors. The owner lied about it and then came and said that they were there but they weren’t and when he was cold on it, he installed new ones. One of the cabins has black mold, and while they do charge for a basic cleaning. It was very clear that this was not done. There are many other rats of the cabin from leaving plastic cables in lighter fluid against baseboard heaters to Muskoka chairs near the fire pit with nail sticking out we ended up providing full pictures and evidence on our first day to Vrbo and getting a refund. Lastly, well. verbal prize itself, and advertises itself as the owner is not being there this owner did show up and not only that stated a cabin nearby and watch us the whole weekend. I will never rent with Vrbo again. Furthermore Vrbo lied when they promised that this cabin will no longer be allowed to be on their system and clearly is still available. Shameful and completely against what they advertise. We have pictures to prove everything and we documented everything!
