Liked: Staff & service
We stayed for a week and used this as a home base while we toured the south shore. The cottage was showing some wear, towels were worn and dishes were mismatched and only enough for two. This property is in an older area and was consistent with the general area. Staff quickly provided a hair dryer when asked. We often saw deer on the property.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately the check in was problematic as we did not have a cottage as expected on our first night and there was disturbance from other guests at our drive up room in all fairness we were put in a separate cottage the remaining 2 nights which made the stay more convenient A deep cleaning of the facility would be highly recommended Shelburne area was beautiful and central to our visit to a lot of the local beaches , towns and tourist attractions

The room was dirty which was brought to the attention of the staff with no comment. We cleaned our room and requested clean linens and towels. There was no continental breakfast as advertised on website. Convenient location.

Nicely decorated

The room was nicely decorated but shows a little wear here and there. The shower was awesome. The outdoor pool was not clean enough that I would consider using it.
