We had difficulties with booking online (owner not computer savvy) & she called us several times (communication issues).

Upon entering, had to pick up Oreo cookies off the floor. Also a dead leaf or two. Dust/dirt in corners.

Window crank broken on kitchen window. Kitchen was dusty/not cleaned. Had to wash dishes before using (dusty).

Dishwasher very stained/unusable. The door would not close because counter above it was warped/blocked door.

Gas grill on patio was full of charcoal ashes and no gas was available.

Weber grill on patio was not cleaned - had wood & charcoal ashes in it.

Furniture in living area was broken (desk), uncomfortable (log chairs), stained (couch cushions) or dirty (wooden loveseat cushion).

Closet in bedroom was where linens were stored – messy. Only two bath towels. There were a couple of beach towels. No hand towels or washcloths. Several piles of sheets/other linens (?) on shelves. Ironing board in closet was broken – no iron.

There was only 1/3 roll of toilet paper.

There were no paper towels for cleaning kitchen.

Kitchen appliances were old and not cleaned. There was a blender and coffeemaker, but no toaster.

Kitchen sink had no stopper for drain (so could not wash dishes).

Kitchen utensils were disorganized/dusty. Cooking utensils were also dusty & rusted in some places.

Pots and pans were minimal – not enough to cook meals.

In bathroom, there were limited places to hang wet towels. Soap was provided at sink, but not in shower.

The shower had enough hot water for ½ shower for 1 person. 2nd person had to take cold shower.

There was no internet service. Further, there was no cell service – you could use your phone sporadically in yard, but did not work in house.

No key provided to cottage – doors left unlocked when not home.

Because of reservations difficulties/communication issues with owner before we arrived, we were hesitant to ask for anything (overwhelmed owner ). She did ask if we needed anything, and then stated that she was going to go into her house, have a glass of wine, and go to bed. We abandoned the place next am after cold showers.

Positives: it is a very pretty farm, and there are horses/goats/ducks/geese all around. There were also a lot of people around (horse owners, men mowing grass and doing farm labor, etc.). It is secluded in the evenings when everyone is gone. The positives did not offset negatives.

We definitely don't recommend this property - would like $s back.
