Great Experience

Overall the property was nice, the floors were a little damaged and the entrance to the bathroom is raised without caution. Also, the neighbours to our right stole our $200 speaker and when asked polietly about it, they lied about it and refused to help. Other than that, the place was very well located, taken care of and an amazing experience.

Nice place, well kept, outdoor space was great. Bedding, linens, and towels are not provided unless your whole party pays 20/person. This would have been nice to know prior to the booking. Was only shared with us in the Welcome message from the host after the booking was confirmed.

March Weekend for 4 Female Curlers

The property photos were minimally accurate. We were advised after we booked the cottage that bed linens and towels were not included. We were also disappointed with the following:- inadequate kitchen towel supply(1 provided)- rusty fridge exterior- mold on shower curtain- no heat on the second morningWe would not recommend this property. The expectation to clean before checking out is above usual departure procedures---yes we will tidy but not mop floors. It is not what we expected within a VRBO listing. Very disappointed.

not what we expected

The pictures online arent what the cottage looks like. The floor is all ripped apart and lifted. I actually cut my foot it was so bad. There are electricial wires exposed at the kitchen which is not great. Fridge looks like a rust bucket. When we walked in, it smelled like someone spayed 100 bottles of cleaner. We had to open the windows to let the smell out.

"Unexpected Charges, Smelly Water, and Not Enough Beds

We stayed at this cottage recently and were quite disappointed. First, the water had a strong, unpleasant smell, which made it hard to use for anything beyond the bare minimum. The owner’s instructions were also unclear—there was no mention that we needed to bring a "garbage card," so we ended up having to pay extra for garbage disposal. Additionally, the cottage was advertised as having sleeping space for 10 people, but there were only 8 actual sleeping spots. On top of all that, the place itself is in need of a serious renovation—it feels outdated and worn down. With better communication and some much-needed upgrades, this place could be far more enjoyable.

The Uninvited Guests

Good communication from the home owner. Our overall impression of this property was spoiled by the neighbours in the cottage next door and their four large unleashed dogs and their pet pig who were constantly on our property. The neighbours and their friends were constantly walking across our property to visit the cottage on the other side of the VRBO. Unfortunately one of their dogs was on our VRBO property and chased my little chihuahua and bit him on his side. He has a puncture wound. The listing didn’t reflect the condition of the property. The pictures were old. We were disappointed with this property. Water issues were ongoing and a plumber visited twice to resolve it. These issues were all part of regular property maintenance.

adequate but disappointing in winter

wasn't ready to be rented in winter. Cold water lines froze twice. Propane furnace quit for one entire weekend. Floor cold throughout most of the cottage. Owner thought there were baseboard heater in bedrooms, NO. Otherwise, ok for most snowmobilers since time in cottage reduced by ride time. Can be fixed to improve future experiences.

Love this location

Check in was very easy. Lots of room , beautiful property and town. The gull river is amazing and the whole family had so much fun here. We had a few little hiccups, propane, changing water filter but the owner Kirill was very responsive and helpful for any questions we had.
