Gut: Sauberkeit
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Family Cottage Retreat on Rice Lake. The cottage was very clean, quiet, and comfortable and most inviting. The newly installed air conditioning system and security alarms were a real plus as was the new BBQ grill. The kitchen appliances were excellent. The fire pit by the lake shore most inviting. The two bathrooms and three bedrooms were very good. Indeed, it is an excellent getaway. Our 12-year old grandson loved the paddle boat.The owners were really cooperative with us and responsible and are really trying to make this a fine place to stay.However, there are some drawbacks. The many flights of stairs and slightly slanted floors posed a challenge, especially for aging parents. The lack of bedroom dressers and getting the hot water to work for the kitchen sink were drawbacks. Adding new laundry facilities and towels would be a real plus, especially for those like us who will stay for a week's time. There also is no sandy beach for little children. In many ways it is more conducive for fishing than swimming, more for the middle aged than for older folks and those with very young children. Nor did it come cheap - a bit overpriced. VRBO should make it more clear upfront whether costs are in Canadian or, as it was in this case, in American dollars.Overall we enjoyed our stay very much.
