Had an incredible weekend!

Nice and charming

I like the layout of the cottage. Very simple. I loved having a Britta in the fridge and the mini blender. There is a full sized stove/oven and fridge. I missed not having a microwave as I love microwave popcorn in the evening. I appreciated the host's daily e-mail check in to see if we needed anything and being provided a cell number to call for any immediate issues. This cottage and the surrounding areas are very dog friendly. The cottage is barely ½ a block to Prospect Lake (bring your paddleboard). There is a running/walking path and a beach. The cottage is also within walking distance (1 mile) to Memorial Health Central (great location for travel RN’s). I felt relatively safe in this location during the day, but it is noisy at night, and I would have felt safer having a deadbolt on the door. The walls are thinly insulated from noise, and I know this is not an easy issue to resolve. On Monday night the neighbors staying in the cottage to the left were so loud and noisy parting until after 2am. I could easily hear them talking, coughing, throwing up and using the bathroom. Overall, I enjoyed my stay (except for Monday night) and would stay again.

The main draw for the property was the use of a hot tub as per the description in the listing. The hot tub does not work. We contacted the manager who acknowledged receiving our message. After that, we did not hear back from him and the hot tub was not repaired during our visit. Yes, the property has a kitchen to cook your meals, however there are very few kitchen utensils to use. The walls between units allow sound to easily pass through. We could clearly hear the conversations of the guests in the unit next door. The property was clean and the air conditioning worked well, however for the value a hotel would have been a better choice.
