  • 3rd stay here

    3/5

    Upon arrival the house had not been clean and beds not made.this was resolved pretty quickly. When we arrived there was 1/2 roll of toilet paper. When they showed up to clean we were gone to dinner. They left one more roll of tp for 4 guys staying 4 nights.. No paper towel in the kitchen. 1 roll would have been nice as we made breakfast every morning. They need a professional to get rid of the mice. We could hear them and traps everywhere. None of these issues on past stays here

    Manager's Response:

    Hi Paul, we're truly sorry that your third visit didn’t match the high standards of your previous stays. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
    - Early Arrival & Cleaning: We regret the misunderstanding about your arrival time, which led to the cleaning delay. We acted swiftly once we were aware.
    - Supplies: We recognize the need for adequate supplies like toilet paper and paper towels, especially for a group of your size. We'll ensure better provisioning in the future.
    - Rodent Concerns: We're addressing the mouse issue more rigorously, as previous measures were insufficient. Your experience has prompted a thorough reassessment.
    We appreciate your understanding and are committed to improving our services. Thank you for helping us enhance our guest experience.

    5/5

    Great cottage in Lakes of the North right on the snowmobile trail. The cottage and heated garage were exactly as advertised. Four adults enjoyed our 3 night stay with plenty of space & everything needed for cooking meals and hanging out between rides. Everyone agreed the beds were comfortable.
