We appreciated being allowed to check in early at noon instead of the scheduled 4:00 p.m. check-in, which was a thoughtful accommodation. The location is beautiful, peaceful, and offers lovely views of the water.Unfortunately, there were several aspects of our stay that were disappointing. Upon entering the cabin, there was a noticeable musty, mold-like odor. While the listing states that guests must bring their own bedding and towels, the photos show beds made with linens and towels hanging, which gave us the impression they would be provided. We didn't realize we needed to bring everything ourselves.The beds and pillows were uncomfortable, and much of the furniture felt old and worn.We specifically chose this property because it was advertised as pet-friendly. However, the backyard was covered with goose droppings, making it unusable for our dogs. They constantly tried to eat the droppings, so we had to keep them indoors for much of our stay. We also noticed swans on the water, which likely contributes to the geese frequenting the property. It would have been helpful if this had been disclosed, as it significantly affects guests traveling with pets.Overall, the location and early check-in were the highlights of our stay, but the musty odor, outdated furnishings, confusion regarding linens, and the condition of the backyard made the experience less enjoyable than we expected.
