Cottage was dirty, did not appear to have been cleaned from previous guest. Beds were stained. several bars of random soap laying in the shower. Owner charged us $75 for missing glassware which he later admitted that he found (still has not reimbursed me). He also accused of putting burn marks on the dining room table. We did not use the dining room table for meals - we used the outside table. I would not recommend this cottage to anyone. Beware of the extra charges the owner may add to your bill by falsely accusing you of things you didn’t do.

Lots to love about this cottage. Great location, private, nice road for walks, beautiful view. Only complaint would be the cleanliness - found a lot of mice droppings throughout the kitchen and bathroom. Overall, kitchen cupboards could have used a good cleaning.

When we opened the door, there was an overwhelming smell of mustiness. We thought it's a cottage, we can open the windows. However we discovered all the windows were left open from the last guests. We took our shoes off when we entered and were grossed out by the filth of the floors. There was an alarming amount of mouse droppings on the counters. I checked the bed for bed bugs, which I do at every hotel. The mattress cover was covered in numerous blood smears and bed bug shell casings. We left immediately. The owner has strict cleaning rules, but it's clear, there is no professional cleaning between guests. There was a note left by the last occupants, it was still there as no one had been by to check on the cottage. The owner responded quickly, gave us an immediate refund and apologized, however our weekend was ruined.

We wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy some time relaxing. This was the perfect cottage to do just that. Ample room for sleeping. Quiet lake perfect for fishing and canoe/kayaking. Close enough to town to get supplies. Friendly chipmunks to greet you. Played some horseshoes and cards every day. Used the bar-b-que for two meals and the rest done indoors easily. Remember to bring your own linens, towels and tea towels. Everything else you need is there. Big bonus: pet friendly. Owner was friendly and courteous with great response times. I would go again.

We were very happy with the property, and had an excellent weekend. My only concern is that the system of guests leaving cleaning supplies sometimes doesn't work, and so we had to make an emergency run to town for dish soap. I would rather pay slightly more per night for the absolute essentials to be provided.

What an awesome vacation! The lake was perfect for swimming and fishing...hundreds of jumps off the dock and hundreds of fish reeled in. Our stay was in August, so it was hot but there were a sufficient number of fans provided so sleeping was comfortable. An unexpected bonus was the trampoline...my son loved it! As other reviewers have pointed out, I would have preferred to pay a cleaning fee to assure the cottage was clean when we arrived. While the cottage wasn't filthy, calling it "clean" would be a bit of a stretch. However, in general this was a great vacation destination and would return.

We enjoyed the coziness, great views and perfect location of this property. Perfect for the get-away (including dogs) we were looking for. The only negative was the lock box was very difficult to open on entering (could be frozen)?

Loved this cottage. Very homey and comfortable. Check in and out was seamless. Amenities were perfect. Kitchen super well stocked. There were 7 of us so lots of room for all. Lake was very pretty and quiet. Swimming was great. Would definitely re-book for next year.

The place is as pictured; Rusty but has everything you need. We love the set up of it, very cosy. You really pay for the view and the lake. I’m very particular about lakes because sometimes they will show the water but won’t show how there’s so many weeds. This lake is amazing! So peaceful and so clean. We spent most our days on the dock, and when we’re not swimming, we stay at the patio to play cards and dominos. Our family definitely enjoyed it and would definitely check it on out on winter. Thank you Francesca❤️

Great location and very accessible, private, quiet cottage with excellent frontage on East Moore Lake. The property was as described, though showing small signs of wear and tear. We agree with the person who pointed out the unusual and formidable cleaning chart (which the guests before us seem to have ignored). Nonetheless, we enjoyed our stay.
