(1,008 reviews) The cottage was really nice. Great for large families or multiple families staying together. Vstays was very adamant about bagging and removing trash. However, they fail to provide any trash bags. The door alarm because of the pool is super annoying. You can't leave the doors open and allow a breeze. They do not provide any laundry supplies. So you will need to bring your own detergent and dryer sheets. I can't speak for everyone in our group, but the sheets on our bed were stained and dirty. They do not provide any bedding or maid services. So be prepared to wash sheets when you arrive. There are not enough towels. We ended up washing towels twice during our 1 week stay. No coffee filters. Basically they do not provide many of the things you will need for a week stay or longer. The TP provided us also absolutely terrible. Maybe I just got a cottage that wasn't cleaned or restocked. Just beware.
