    Filthy and crappy old house. Unsafe with mold and filth in the bathroom. Couldn't use the bedroom because of the heat. Horrible experience.

    Manager's Response:

    We’re sorry the cottage did not meet your expectations. When you shared concerns during your stay, we offered a credit for the remaining nights if you preferred to move to another accommodation, and you chose to stay. After checkout, we inspected the bathroom and cooling system. Because you raised concerns about mold, we also completed a thorough inspection with our cleaning team and handyman and found no mold. We take guest feedback seriously and appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.

    Comfortable stay- very walkable to downtown Carp. Neat and clean- would recommend for single or couple.

    5/5

    Perfect place for me and my girlfriend to stay for this trip. Quiet place to relax at the end of a long day at the beach and exploring all the great spots walking distance away :). Kitchen was stocked with easy to use keurig coffee and waters and everything we needed with a quick grocery run for all our snacks.

    Very happy with the location and cleanliness of the cottage. The bed was one of the most comfortable that we've ever slept in at a vacation rental. We appreciated the water bottles and coffee K-cups. It was a most relaxing stay.
