Unclean

July 2025

The whole place needs a really good cleaning. The odor of greasy cooking was everywhere through and through-- in the kitchen and living room and the bedroom was not much better. All of the hard surfaces even the headpost on the bed was greasy to the touch. Then to mask the odor a chemical fragrance was used which felt like poison to me. Awful experience. I couldn't wait to leave.

Very nice place to stay, could have been a little cleaner with the cobwebs. Larger than expected which was very nice. No A/C which was fine for the weekend we stayed. The grill was stored in the shed so we did not use it. The bathroom door does need replacing. As well as the light on the back porch was broken. We survived with the light of the fire. 😉 All in all a very nice, comfortable place to stay, and if we get the chance, may stay again. Thank you! Danielle and friends

We couldn’t have been happier. The cottage was beautiful inside and out was rustic like it said inside was nicely decorated. It was centrally located to the marina. Enter the general store and gas station. The surrounding neighbors were very pleasant, and I’m looking to go back there again in July, I can’t say enough about the place. I was very happy and for the price you couldn’t beat that. And the owner couldn’t have been any nicer to try to accommodate me. Sincerely, Michael Mcbride.
