Wonderful little get away!

We were looking for a relaxing get away for two and we certainly found it at Heritage Harbor! The house was VERY clean. It was cozy and relaxing. Heritage Harbor is a safe little area with bright cheery rental houses lined up like doll houses. This cottage had a beautiful view with a deck overlooking the water. There was excellent communication for check in and check out. The nearby town of Ottawa has a bunch of cute little shops and great local restaurants. Too bad we did not stay long enough to try them all! It was also the perfect driving distance to Starved Rock State Park. The gorgeous hiking there is what we came for, and the great accommodations at Heritage Harbor will have us coming back, for sure!

Disappointed in Cleanliness

I received the check in/welcome email THE DAY AFTER CHECKOUT! The cottage was obviously NOT CLEANED....so much dog hair it collected on socks, dirty underwear in the washing machine, sheets very questionable and needing to be washed before use. And absolutely no prior communication. It was very disappointing. The girls wanted to salvage a planned getaway during the "shelter in place" mandate and thought it would be safe to just hideout in the cottage together. Now we're worried that it wasn't cleaned properly.
