Aug 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The house is lovely. It is in a great location- quiet but a close walk to Main street. There were 6 of us in the house (4 adults and 2 children) and we had plenty of room. The owner was very helpful. I would recommend the house to anyone staying in the Shediac/Moncton region. ##### Tara T. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rachelle D. Sep 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location We found out at our arrival that the cottage (house) was built in 1900\. The kitchen was fine but the floors were very old and the stairway was noisy when in use. When asked about a fire alarm we were told in a rude manner by the owner to go out and buy one. It is actually illegal not to have one. Two days after leaving I received a text from the owner accusing us of robbing him of all of his zip lock bags. Really!! Although the house is very well situated and maybe wonderful for some, it is not for everyone. ##### Rachelle D. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Christian L.
