Host was very responsive. We have stayed at vacation rentals at several places around the world and the Artist's Lakehouse did not measure up to the high standards we see everywhere we go. Lots of positives but a few basis shortcomings. The cleaning fee was 120 and kitchen was not clean. All glasses had fingerprints and/ or smudges. The light in the kitchen end of the cabin seemed to be about 40 watts (60 watts max) and was behind the working area. Cooking and washing up was a rather dim affair. If you are a light sleeper (which we are), then road noise is an issue. Listing left one with the impression that the cabin was well back from the road. The fireplace was left in a state of a failed attempt to start a fire - burnt newspaper and a couple of charges logs. There was no kindling and 4 damp matched which would not even light. Fortunately there was a BBQ lighter. The fridge is on the left side of the kitchen end of the kitchenbut is left.opening. It is a convertible fridge - a stew driver and about 20 minutes would convert it to a much more convenient right hand opening fridge. The bathroom overhead light was burnt out. The listing should emphasize more that the water is NOT potable. Several jugs of water were provided but thank goodness we brought some extra. It should also emphasize that there is no internet and no tv (just some dvds). Even mobile servic seems limited (we had Rogers). Overall we felt not good value for the price. Art is very nice.
