My family and I enjoyed our stay at the rustic cottage. Overall it was a nice place & I would highly recommend it.
We had to clean up when arriving as a previous guests opened used candy was on the couch. It was cold during our stay and the heater by the doors that open to the back deck does not even power on. The curtains in the master bedroom were see through and I was not only unaware but also indecent in the room with land surveyor's outside for hours. Also the door to that room has to be lifted up before being closed.. there were several flaws with almost every single light switch and outlet, some even lacking outlet covers. Very dangerous for kids in my opinion. The wires on the heater in the master room are just connected to a wooden block free dangling. Several issues with the walls and trim work with big empty gaps or nails. The floor is way too weak to hold probably even the weight of a suitcase in the closet when you first walk in. In the start of the hallway and right in front of the bunk bed room the floor is weak and sinks down when stepping on it, I was scared to walk in that part of the cottage. The bunk bed room also has a spot of missing flooring which is not good since that was the room intended for kids. We also had to run the dryer 2-3 times on high heat to get it to dry anything so you may need a new heating element for your dryer. The ledge to the other bathtub is super high and no steps to get in making it dangerous for people with short legs like myself or disabled like my father in law tha
A cute little place. Clean and comfortable. Only thing is there is no heat in either bathroom. Really cold when showering. Very inconvenient to plug up space heaters in bathrooms just for heat. Other than that it was good.
