Things to improve

Drain in the kitchen and washroom (including shower) smells terrible and nasty. We could not bath comfortably because of the smell and washing kitchen dishes with that smell feels gross. The oven was not clean either and we had to clean it before use. There is no room freshener provided.The smoke alarm unit is just near the stove top. With normal cooking like sauteing the onions, the smoke alarm went on as it is right above the stover top. We were in pressure each time we did cooking. It will be great if linens are provided and customers do not need to bring with them.

Not accurate information

Unfortunately, communication was not accurate, when we arrived to the cottage we were not able to fit in thru the gates because our boat was too big. I had specifically gave anton our boat and trailer measurements, and notified him that it was a 32ft boat and trailer wondered if we would be able to park our truck and boat at his cottage. He replied with" it shouldn't be a problem " As a result we had to find a marina to dock the boat for the weekend and pay $230.00 more. When i told him thats what we were doing he did not offer to reimburse any monies even though he disregarded a parking spot. As a result i messaged him and asked if i could not pay the extra $75.00 dog fee. In wich he honered. Spent alot of time looking to place our boat, and was inconvenienced by the location from marina to cottage. Our boating was the only thing that saved the weekend, the cottage is not worth a second visit from us. Also dont forget to rent your sheets when you stay there!
