Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Loved being right on the water. Beautiful and peaceful. The cottage was clean and updated. I gave a rating of 4 because we only had 2 towels and no washcloths (which we had to buy). My one important message to the owners. You really should install a security bar in the bathtub. My Husband and I had nothing to grab on to when sliding on the wet slippery tub. Thank you for letting us stay at your property and enjoying a stress free and relaxing vacation. Christina & James Louzon
