We really enjoyed our stay at Albert's place. Enjoyed the unique and interesting furnishings and art. The kitchen had all we needed for eating in and the whole place felt welcoming. It was the perfect location for our biking and paddling adventures. Wish we had more time to explore the area.

November 2024

We were unable to stay in the rental due to the strong, stagnant, mildewy, musty, odors that hung in all the rooms of the rental space. We opened up as many windows that were operable, to see if ventilation would help but after an hour, we pack up our groceries, personal bedding, and belongings and left in search of alternate CLEAN accommodation. In addition to the putrid air inside the rental, the shared driveway was blocked with 2 heavy duty construction vehicles, a flatbed trailer, a caterpillar earthmover, and 2 huge gravel trucks. The noise was deafening. The host, Albert did not respond immediately to my calls, and was tardy and hostile when responding via Airbnb messaging. Three days after we had initially contacted Albert about the rental's foul odors, construction noise, and construction vehicles blocking the driveway, denied any responsibility and even tried to blame us for not contacting the absent adjacent property owner. This cottage needs a major overhaul!
