It's an older RV, what do you expect? The location is fantastic, though, if you like a quiet wooded place near a peaceful creek with lots of birds. The RV itself has seen (and smelled?) better days, but the AC worked fine. TV did not work at all. The place could use a good deep cleaning, and the kitchen sink definitely needs scrubbing. Finding a used washcloth in the shower did not increase my confidence in the overall cleanliness of the place, either. Water tastes funny, too. But, did I mention the location? That's definitely the best part.
Super Location, super Host. Ich kann es jedem wirklich nur ans Herz legen. Wunderschön in der Natur, nur ca 3km bis Cheticamp und ca. 3 km bis zum NP. Buchen!!
