Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kuldeep S. 6 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great cottage, with a mix of large wood beams with modern touches. Very comfortable and spacious. Plenty of peaceful sitting spaces, bedrooms and ample bathrooms.Very well appointed with everything you’ll need. Overall, Excellent location, great dock, and lots of watercraft’s and toys. There is a road and rail tracks, so you will hear some of it. But, it’s brief and not loud by the dock and water. Everyone really loved the cottage and we enjoyed our stay. We look forward to booking again. ##### Kuldeep S. Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meaghan 13 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication This cottage is beautiful, water was supreme. Host was very communicative with good suggestions in town. Did try to contact the owner twice to discuss review before posting this, but they did not reach out. Massive drawback is no AC and 1 fan that we were told we could move around if need be-not cutting it. Not every window and door had screens, so we couldn't open everything up for a breeze. Two bedrooms upstairs reaching 38 degrees and 2 bedrooms downstairs that were better but still 28+ made it pretty tough to sleep. Common rooms we were sweating at night sitting down playing cards which was not comfortable. If we didn't have the water access, we would have left as it was pretty much unbearable. Pro moves- laundry, laundry soap, shampoo, conditioner, shower soap, washcloth, shower & beach towels provided. Place was absolutely clean, but they need to reimagine their garbage situation by purchasing a bear box or something similar so garbage can be put outside. With 9-10 guests, you are going to run out of room with one can. Need to rope off the hill as we got stuck and had to push out thinking it was parking, very dangerous with boat parked at the hilltop- need to tell guests where to park. Kitchen appliances (Ikea?) were not easy to use-a booklet or instructions would have been helpful for the microwave and the stove. Need a second fridge for 9-10 guests. My friend fell through a rotten board on the deck, need to look at this, dangerous. ##### Meaghan Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark G. 23 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Mark G.
