The location is spectacular & we thoroughly enjoyed the huge deck. The owners are warm & caring people who were so kind regarding my situation. There are warm touches of home everywhere in the cottage.
I'm not a bug person. Beware going in June. June bugs were out in swarms & their dead bodies coated everything. Yuck!
That being said, I put up with them for that view. Even though dead bugs were inside the cottage in the window sills, on top of kitchen surfaces, in the bathroom, in the sheets, even a live spider in the sheets. It seemed like no one cared to clean these up or spray a bug bomb once in awhile & then clean. Maybe the sheets had been sitting awhile. They seemed clean but again, I don't like bugs. I had to use my travel bug spray many times as there were lots of flying bugs inside.
The overall cleanliness of the cottage was not up to my standards. Especially with Covid, you would like to think the surfaces were clean. They were not. The last thing I want to do when I'm on vacation & just drove 5 hrs, is clean the living space before I can even move in. Especially when I've paid a huge cleaning fee! I spent 1 1/2 hrs cleaning and it's not that large. We brought food to cook because of Covid & because the kitchen was not clean, didn't cook anything. The stove top was dirty, fridge was dirty inside, also had bugs & fruit flies, the microwave had old coated food on the outside as did the stove, the kitchen counters had crumbs & were dirty. The kitchen sink was dirty & yet had a crumbled, used wipe left in it. The leather sofas had food crumbs on them, the floors had food & bugs like they hadn't been swept. The toilet had a scum around the inside of the seat. That is just gross! In the pictures everything looks nice & clean. But it wasn't. I reported this to the owner who did return our cleaning fee but that was the least she could have done. She should have had the property managers clean again & given us another day to make up for it.
I specifically asked the owner about ceiling fans as I have a small fan I travel with and would have brought it but she said not necessary. The fan above my bed sounded like a train was in the room. We had to buy another.
I'm allergic to pets & was assured pets are not allowed. In cleaning , I found lots of pet hair. So every time the air came on, I was sneezing & coughing.
The owner made excuses for the cleaning people. Trust me, I would not take my precious time to write this review if not true.
