This was a little gem! The property manager is on site and was always able to help out when I needed something. Everything was clean and the rooms had everything I needed. I'm already looking forward to our return!

Jean

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Not worth $200/night. There was a bad smell. Shower is tiny, don’t plan on touching your feet. Deck rotted (wood rot is probably the odor). Cottage needs repair.
