The Isle of Dogs cottage was super clean, bright, and airy upon arrival. The large, fully fenced backyard setup was perfect for the dogs, with a poop disposal station, bags, and clean up tools. Isle of Dogs has water and food bowls, extra leashes, a large crate already set up, treats ready on the counter and other thoughtful touches such as towels and dog shampoo. The outdoor shower hose was great for cleaning sandy feet and paws. Everything you would need for pets is right there. Slip covers were already on the furniture, even though we brought our own throw blanket just in case. Our 2 little dogs settled in immediately and had a great time. We even had the Google Nest play relaxing music for them during the time they were in the crate while we ran to the grocery store. Roberta has thought of everything. The cottage location is perfect. It is on a beach access street with the supermarket and restaurants all nearby. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, with good streets for biking. We had a wonderful stay.
