Nice location, close to village with resonable views. Has trees olong bedroom walls that are very noisy so dont expect much sleep as these need to be trimmed right back

Disliked: Cleanliness
Don't really enjoy my two nights stay here. The sheets were not clean and toilet paper wasn't enough and we needed to prepare by ourselves. The location is good and the price is not expensive. However, we still expected a simple but comfortable place to stay.

This is the noisiest house I've ever stayed in. When the wind blows it sounds like the roof is coming off. When you walk inside all the floors and walls pop and snap. The outside furniture is falling apart and needs to be replaced. The cabinets and drawers need a good cleaning out. Lots of old broken and mismatched things, but no coffee pot. We were only provided 2 towels for a 2 bedroom unit. I didn't appreciate being told there was a $50 charge for leaving dirty dishes. On the plus side the heater worked well.

An apartment with everything.

It is a pleasant house. We can cook and there are lots of pots and pans in the kitchen that we can use. But the stay has a policy that the guest are required to clean the kitchen and the utensils. So when was started using it, it was not clean. But overall we love the cooking facilities. The pitfall is it is not overlooking the lake view.
