Disliked: Cleanliness
Parking is on the side of the road (little spot for car). Many steps to go up and down to the cottage to unpack. Oven dirty. Old coffee grounds still in coffee maker. BBQ really dirty, grills rusty and no propane. Hardly any room to put clothes in the one and only wardrobe as many items in it (i.e. life jackets, etc.). Cottage next door under construction for day 2 and 3 all day so no sitting outside due to noise from crane digging. No bath matt. Not lakeside as stipulated on website (en bord de lac). Cannot see the lake from the cottage. Two trails to the lake were very steep. Pedalos were upside down, seats removed and sitting on top along with 2 kayaks and on a small incline. Could not lift (we were 2 woman in late 60's) and bring to lakeside as too heavy, so unable to enjoy the lake. Although not the owner's fault, day 3 power failure at 4pm due to storm; could not find emergency candles or flashlights. Had to use cell phones for lighting. Sent message to owner but no reply until next day. Had to go buy candles at depanneur in pouring rain. Day 4 still no power at 9AM and hardly any water to flush toilet or use sink. Lost all our food from the freezer. Had to get our morning coffee from the depanneur. Not knowing when it would come back and no use of toilet or cooking, we packed up and climbed those awful steps to bring everything to the car and left that morning. Owner apologetic and thanked us for our understanding. Very disappointing considering the price.
