Beautiful and relaxing cottage

My kids and I had a marvelous time in this cottage. The living space is ample and there are lots of comfortable places to sit indoors and out, all with nice views of the bay. There were board games and some toys too which was a hit. The space was clean and comfortable and Joy responded quickly to my messages with a few questions I had after check in. The alcove bed is as described, might not work well for a large adult but was just fine for my kids. Would definitely consider staying here again. The location and views were amazing!

What's pictured is beautiful and nice... It's the things not pictured that were problematic…

What's pictured is beautiful and accurate... It's the things not pictured that were substandard and disappointing… The main living area was comfortable and spacious just as the pictures… -The home was clean (except for the frig & oven). -Nice sheets with comfortable beds. -Ample street parking. -Ample seating for 10-15 people with the two tables (note issue below). -View was amazing, though obstructed by other buildings. -The property is pet friendly! -The host provided muffins, milk, orange juice, coffee & tea. There were some things NOT pictured… -Deck is NOT private or contained as advertised. It is one deck shared by ALL guests. -MANY wilted plants and other odd items on the deck (looked junky – probably ok in the summer) -Frig was full of condiments (ie: full door – some expired or almost empty) -Main bath had an old tub with a jimmy rigged shower (ie: not installed by a professional and difficult to use). -Almost all doors are glass with curtains. The curtains into many rooms were lacey and didn’t provide privacy. (even into bathroom & bedroom windows – ie: other guests can look in on occupants) -Cubie should not be a room. One wall has quilt batting covered with a curtain (basically it’s an unfinished homemade addition). French door windows to outside were covered with a weird paint film. -Heater to cubie tripped a breaker at 10:40pm the last night (luckily there were many extra blankets & extension cords to bring in a lamp from the living room) -TV set-up is odd and difficult to use (worst I’ve seen in a vacation rental). Other oddities… -Overlooked some fine print which was discovered at the last minute… In summary, the owner wanted to charge an hourly fee for any visitors (not overnight guests – just dinner guests). She said it was due to the septic system…though dinner guests don’t do much other than sit and visit. My Uncle rented two other rooms. -In order to rent the Annex room(for a cousin), she needed to stop by (showed up at least an hour late). The annex was block off twine tied across the door. (not a simple lock – it was very odd and unattractive). The good thing is, it had a normal shower that we all enjoyed using on our second night. -The room my Uncle stayed in also had opportunities for improvement. The door to his deck was falling off the hinges. His kitchen was NOT a full kitchen as advertised. The shower was jimmy rigged tub with pvc pipe for curtain rods, home-made shower, and no place to set soap, etc.

Beautiful view, quiet location, well stocked kitchen, close to shopping.

The large open concept plan was nice. View from large balcony was excellent. Lots of seating. Well stocked kitchen with all appliances and kitchenware. Downsides were: Only 1 channel on TV. The shower was a narrow 18” high claw foot tub with a material curtain that stuck to you. Looks like water has previously leaked out of tub to floor underneath. No place to unpack and store clothes.
