The home was centrally located to our main points of interest. Comfortable inside, and relaxing outdoors - couldn't have asked for more. Krystle was a joy to deal with. ##### \-Cameron -. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Suzanne H. Jul 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Surprise What we got and what we thought we rented were different. From the pictures we thought it was a cabin near water. It was in fact an old home that has been completely renovated. Inside was very well done, neat and clean. Bathroom was however only on the main floor not near the bedrooms. Pulled into the driveway from a crescent but the BIG drawback was the front of the house faced the Main Street which actually happens to be Hwy 6 to Sauble beach! Very noisy!!!Thank goodness the air conditioning drowned it out. Never did see the “ Shallow Lake” ##### Suzanne H. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022
