Villas in Peterborough

It was over and beyond my expectations, 5☆+

We recently stayed at this cottage and overall enjoyed the space and location. However, there were a few issues that impacted our stay. The hot tub was not working when we arrived. We messaged the hosts in the morning, hoping to have an option to one of the other cottages hottubs, but did not receive a response and still have not heard back, 5 days after we left. This was a bit disappointing, as the hot tub was one of the features we were looking forward to after our ski day. There were also a few basic supplies missing, including tea towels, facecloths and Kleenex, which would have been helpful also the kettle didn't work and wifi was very weak to non existent, The cottage itself has potential, but improved communication and attention to guest essentials would make a big difference.

The space provided was big and the view was amazing

I loved the view and that they had all the essentials for cooking.

The photos are very accurate. Of course, during winter and occasional snowstorms, any inconvenience was due to the weather—not the cottage itself. On the contrary, the heating system is excellent, the hot water system works perfectly, and the cottage stays warm and comfortable. The overall comfort can easily be enhanced by bringing a few personal “comfort” items, as we did. I’ve read some negative reviews, and I believe they stem from unrealistic expectations—perhaps expecting full hotel services in a rental cottage. Keeping in mind that this is not a full-service hotel stay, the experience exceeded all of our expectations. That was the clear consensus in our family. The person in the office, located very close to the cottage, was extremely cordial and helpful. When we needed the gas tank for the barbecue replaced, he promptly took care of it and was always readily available on-site whenever needed. Thank you—you truly made our stay more comfortable. We brought a few additional items that we personally prefer using (paper towels, napkins, spring water, our own pillows and preferred covers, shampoo and similar items, extra garbage bags, etc.), and everything worked out perfectly. The only thing we missed was additional hanging space for clothes, as there is no closet or hanger aside from hooks behind the door. A mat by the sliding door to the deck would also be helpful; we brought our own, anticipating the need. Overall, the experience is like staying in a rental cottage, but with far less hassle since water and heating are fully taken care of. Price-wise, it is absolutely fair. We look forward to coming back in the summer.

EZ location, beautiful lake scenery. Lovely simple interior

Love the view and venue. Check in and out was easy.

I liked having the lockbox available for check in
