"The cottage has potential, but several aspects fell short of a luxury experience. We booked a "Deluxe Cottage, Kitchen, Mountain View," but our expected mountain view was completely overridden by the cabin right across the path on the front porch side, and a dirt wall on the bedroom side. Inside, basic setup details were overlooked, like finding the clean coffee cups still sitting in the dishwasher rather than the cabinets, a mosquito inside the fridge (dead). The bed was uncomfortable and felt incredibly small for a queen-size.
Maintenance and amenities were also a letdown: the sliding closet doors were off the rails, and having a tiny, 16-inch TV in the bedroom felt incredibly outdated and cheap. The most disruptive part of our stay was being jolted awake at 1 a.m. by an awful, loud noise from the water heater that made us think something was breaking right outside the cabin.
Once you're outside, the property is beautiful. The little pond was cute and there are some nice trails around. However, it just didn't live up to the premium price tag, especially when we were hit with a checkout chore list requiring us to haul our own trash to the dumpster and wash our dishes before leaving. We only used a few cups for coffee, but being asked to do chores felt entirely out of place for a "deluxe" stay."
