The listing wasn't exactly what we expected when we arrived. From the photos it seemed we would be closer to the lake. The cottage has real potential but needs some TLC, mainly outside.When we arrived a few minutes before 3pm the host advised us it wasn't quite ready. No big deal but we ended up having to dry the bed sheets in the small dryer and then make our bed. Not a big deal, but seeing the mattress pad all ripped in the top corner and very old looking with some soiled areas...not so inviting.Also, there are No Beach chairs or Beach towels as listed and no real beach near by to walk to as we assumed when it listed Beach chairs and towels included in the rental.Also the propane bar b que had 4 burners bit only 2 reflectors so limited to use of one side only. Also grills were very dirty and no brush was available for cleaning it.We were looking forward to using the fireplace but it was located over a bridge amongst and close to trees. With It being so dry this summer, we did not feel it in our best interest to use as there was not a hose that reached to put it out, only a garden watering can. Also there was large pile of old boards with nails in them right next to the fireplace which is dangerous as it is dark in the trees. Also a large pile of old things like deck chairs, plastic tarps, ladders and an old toilet piled up right outside our bedroom windows.Regardless of the disappointments encountered, we did enjoy the paved walking and biking trails down the road
