    The air conditoner was falling apart grills falling out and the hose that vented outside was all fell apart my husband had to tape it on so it coukd vent outside

    Location was good would have been nice if there was grass on both sides of the cabin instead of dirt and rock but it was fine for a night we travelled for our dog to have surgery so it was not too far away from the animal hospital and he could get outside better than a hotel has pretty much everything you would need for a short stay fridge microwave untensils dishes and you can cook if you need to with 2 elements no oven but great for a dhort stay cant complain we slept on the pull out couch which was better for our dog the mattress on this is wore out we never tried the bed

    There wasnt much we didn't like! There were some parts of our cabin that needed to be cleaned and was dirty when we arrived. A couple things were a little broken or run down, like furniture or window screens. I'm not sure what the smell was in the cabin, but there was a very strong smell in the cabin that did not go away. Overall it was enjoyable though!

    I loved that it was a cozy little cabin, it was private and had lots of bedding. The canteen was great and the staff were super helpful and friendly. It was also in a great location with lots of things to do and see nearby

    An additional 47 dollars for two dogs, having to ask precise questions to get answers checking in (only 20 mins early!!), didn't know which cabin I was assigned nor if it had been cleaned, treated me like an inconvenience... Looked at me like I should have been told all this information prior to check-in... I booked through booking.com

    Great amenities, clean grounds, quiet community, pet friendly, colourful, food truck, convenience store fully stocked (with homemade cold plates!).

    The one thing I’d say was difficult is we couldn’t find the hours for when the main office opened so we could check out. Though checkout is listed as 10am, we were heading out early and could not locate the office hours so I’d definitely recommend the staff have that listed either on the website or in the cabins to accommodate early morning travellers. Our cabin was also missing one of the tv remotes so we couldn’t watch the TV but since we were only there for the night it wasn’t a big deal.

    A very unique accommodation and great location. The cabins were clean while maintaining the unique charm the province is known for.

    The bbq needs a cleaning.

    Quiet and relaxing. They upgraded us to a hottub pod and it was great! Bed was comfortable just wished it was a kingsize. Had everything we needed. We booked a few nights on our return trip and hope to enjoy the indoor pool and campfire on our way back to St.John’s.

    When booking I was under the impression that I was booking a cottage with a hot tub, so was very disappointed to learn that only two cottages had hot tubs and ours was not one of them. We were happy to learn there was a heated pool but $9 per person seemed a bit much considering the disappointment with lack of hot tub.

    Nice cottage that suited our needs

    The dryer was so squeaky and loud it was unusable. The bed in the bedroom on the right side is so saggy and uncomfortable that we couldn't sleep and my back flared up the next morning. A king size bed with a better mattress would make a great replacement in that room - we would stay here way more often if that was the case! Some small additions to the kitchen would be nice, for example we didn't have a potato masher. Not necessities but would make a nice addition :)

    The large deck and hot tub are amazing. The firepit we didn't get to use this time but looked great. The couches are super comfy.

    The covered roof over the hot tub could use some fixing as it leaks in when it rains (but it was also really windy the day we stayed so I’m not sure if that had to do with it) The curtains were very see through in the bedroom and the lights over the hot tub wouldn’t turn off at night so the light was constantly shining in making it hard to sleep. The bed was also very hard.

    We loved the coziness of the cabin and that it had a covered private patio for the hot tub area! The cabin was extremely clean and the staff were very friendly! ◡̈

    Only one of the hot plates worked and it was lacking some basic kitchen utensils like a peeler or grater. Outside the front of the cabin, they are also doing a lot of ground work at the moment.

    Loved the cute little cabin. Perfect size for 1-2 people. Really good heating and really comfortable bed.

    That we didn't stay longer.

    We stayed in a two bedroom, pet friendly cottage. Small kitchen, beds are very comfy. Restaurant, Pool and a pub are on site, you can walk out onto the beach when tide is out ( not swimmable). Market 100m down the street if you forgotten any foods or liquor. Theatre next door that offers cultural events. Close to trails for hiking. Has a E/V charging station
