A good weekend

I don’t want to seem overly critical or petty, but there wasn’t a table to sit at to eat. Granted it is a small lake cottage.

Okay

Not enough parking for two vehicles, especially when we woke up to find a work truck and people working on the garage (which has the loft space above it). We were told they would be there four or five hours, blocking the only driveway into the property. On a dead end, which is fine, but the area is so overgrown, it looks like you’re not in the right spot when you get there. Uneven floors throughout, no AC in the loft space above the detached garage, and no window screen in one window up there - that was an issue with being in a boggy area near a lake, many bugs outside. Shower leaks not due to neglect, but poor design, and leaks a lot. Wet towels were left on the living room chair at check in. You can’t open the door all the way to get into the utility room, you have to walk in and close the door the access the washer/dryer. I’m not afraid of ants, but a heads up that they were pretty infested would have been nice. No mirror low enough for my 4’6” kid to see herself in. There had been a lot of rain before we came, so the yard was pretty muddy therefore we didn’t use any of the outdoor space. At times the door wouldn’t lock because the latch wouldn’t shut all the way. All towels had to be used to mop up the shower leaks. No checkout instructions were provided even after asking for them.

Location is right on a lake. It's a beautiful little house. The only thing that wasn't clear is that the third bedroom is above the garage and not atrached to the main house. It worked perfectly for our family reunion and was super convenient for us! Would definitely stay again. Great price and worked well for our family with small kids.

It just fit our needs. Great communication! It was surprisingly quiet for being on a busy road. Getting out of the driveway was a challenge due to the traffic and another car from another party being parked in the turn around spot. I may have missed in the listing that it was an apartment. It could have used a few more spoons.
