Coffee make is tiny and the filters were not the right size so it was a slow messy wait but other than that, cozy beds and good space!

The cottage design was beyond expectation,,was clean but we left it cleaner, lower bedroom sheets had aweful staining that should never been on the bed, we received replacement sheets promply. It was new years and the fireplace would not work and the request for help was ignored,or didn't get passed on from the lady that dropped off the new sheets. Also, we were not informed there was no access to the dock because it was sunk, that access was 50% of the reason for booking.

We found the noise transfer from the main floor to the ground level quite pronounced . Tried several times to light the outdoor firepit only to be told that it wasn’t allowed for renters. The downstairs bedroom had a large t.v however there was no cable only streaming services . The fireplace in the living room didn’t operate despite trying several times . There was a dvd remote and lots of dvds but no dvd player. Disappointed in this unit , the complex setting is quite beautiful .

Pros and Cons Pros: Spacious, multi-level layout with plenty of room for four. Peaceful lakeside setting, close to Ganges, and surrounded by songbirds — very tranquil overall. Cons: Although this is a mid-range property, the furnishings feel dated and the overall cleanliness could be better. Staff were generally responsive, but I was taken aback when they laughed after I mentioned that my husband had fallen — quite hard — while carrying our dinner, which ended up scattered across the front yard. The fall was caused by a sizeable, hidden hole in the grass beside the pathway that’s clearly worn from regular use between the parking spot and the front door. When I told the manager, she brushed it off, saying she’d fallen in the same hole herself. If it’s a known hazard, why hasn’t it been fixed? That really speaks to the level of care and attention at this property. Overall: Would I stay there again? Not likely.

Second staying at these cabins. Both times were in pet friendly units, but without a pet. I have to say that this time the condition of cabin was not that great. Although animals are not allowed on furniture, the couch and seats in the living room were grossly stained. Felt like a poor student furniture rather than a grown up space to sit and hang out. At that price that shouldnt be a thing. You would expect clean furniture. We had a lakeview cabin with no lake view. Although we had a beautiful forest view, there was absolutely no lake view. Entrance was presented with plenty of spider webs. Lastly, mold in the shower. Plus side we got to canoe and bbq by the lake. A good stay, but condition of that unit was not worth it compared to a much nicer unit we got at our last visit. I know they are individually owned and it differs, but cleanliness should be standard and same in any units.

There was no hot water for showering in the evening, which might be due to a higher number of residents, but this issue should not be happening

The cottage is probably the best travel accommodation I’ve ever stayed in. The room amenities are well-equipped. It’s comfortable and relaxing to stay in the cottage.
