Hi Chris,Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad you found me easy to communicate with. I’m sorry the hot and humid weather brought more bugs than usual during your stay — I understand how that can be unpleasant. I appreciate you staying with us and wish you the best in your future travels

Grace was very accommodating and the property was very quiet and peaceful . The beds were not overly comfortable and the cabin could’ve used more attention to detail when cleaning. Overall, was an ok experience and happy that it was pet friendly.

First of all, Grace is an amazing Host. Since this was our first time with booking with VRBO, Grace helped us through the process. The cottage was very clean and in such a peaceful location next to a beautiful river. Shopping for groceries was a breeze since major stores were no more than 10 to 15 minutes away from the cottage. We enjoyed our stay of 4 nights and recommend staying here. Our Chihuahua also enjoyed her stay!! Alan & Ann

Clean old cottage. Very little seating in the main cottage and what there was was uncomfortable. No bed pillows on the bed! 2 ruffled pillow shams but no bed pillows! Nothing in the bedroom to set a bag on. Everything had to go on the floor.Owner wanted us to wash the dishes, which is a reasonable ask but maybe have a tea towel available? Empty soap bottles in the shower. Cob webs and hair over the shower. Very, very spartan. Close to the bike trail but over priced for what we got.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that the cottage did not fully meet your expectations. We do provide two bed pillows on the bed, although I’m sorry if they were not noticed or were not to your preference. For the kitchen, we provide paper towels but I understand that a tea towel would also have been helpful and we can consider adding one. I also appreciate your comments about the bedroom storage and bathroom. We’ll pay closer attention to the shower area and make sure it is thoroughly cleaned and that all bathroom supplies are fully stocked. Our cottage is intentionally a simple, cozy cottage-style retreat rather than a luxury accommodation, but we always want it to be clean, comfortable, and properly equipped. Thank you again for sharing your feedback—it gives us some useful areas to improve.

This was a great place for our short get away. Everything we needed was supplied. Great host! Thanks for answering all our questions so quickly.Our only very small disappointment was that the river that is pictured in the ad must be old as it could not be seen from the cottage per the photo.
