Weekend at the Cottage

My friends and I stayed at this cottage for a weekend and we were very pleased with the cottage itself and everything about it. Ashlyn was also very helpful and quick to respond with any issues we had as well. I’d recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing weekend away.

Escape the City!

Some buddies and I needed a weekend away to chill and hang out. This place was perfect. Recommend a long soak in the hot tub, some drinks and a great meal on the deck. Lots of cool, dark and quiet at night for a sound, deep sleep. 👍👍👍👍👍

Super Cute Cottage!!!

This was the perfect spot for our Thanksgiving Weekend, we were right on the 4 wheeling trails. Because of weather we didn't get to use the bombfire pit or the pizza oven but the kids did use the hot tub once 😊. Ashlyn was very helpful with any questions we had. This Cottage was absolutely perfect for the 4 of us. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!! Thank you Ashlyn 😊

Tranquil and rejuvenating

Would recommend 2-7 nights to fuly enjoy. Hosts were available for any questions we had. Arrival was easy and suggestons of where to get food was outlined nicely for us. I did notice this place didn't have any bugs, even outside on the patio. Only mosquitoes near the forest. No AC but with quiet fans it was perfect.

Cottage stay

Ideal for fall and winter stays only. We had to buy a/c units because it was 30 degrees the whole time in the house. No bbq unless you want to wait 30 mins for the charcoal to heat up. Drive way is washed out, need 4x4.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 Sept, 2024
Hi Meghan, In our listing, we clearly state that there is no A/C and specify the type of BBQ provided. Before completing your stay, you agreed to read and follow the rules. Installing an A/C unit properly requires significant effort and installation that wasn't feasible for a short stay. Please be aware that there are exterior cameras on the property. Any claims about installing equipment, such as air conditioning, without the host’s proper consent, would be false. In future stays please go over the listing and the rules

Bancroft wedding stay

Accommodation were very nice and functional for our needs. Backyard has started to grow in with plant, block view outwards but also blocks views inwards making it quite and private in back yard. Good internet but no tv channels. That was only issue because NHL playoffs on at the time. More rules than I'm used to seeing but all in all accommodation worked well for us.
