Nik was an incredible host for us. Amazing and fast communication and was able to answer any questions we had. We stayed with 8 people, 2 small dogs and 2 infants and it was the perfect getaway. Nik's property is spacious, very well decorated and equipped for everything we needed. We Will definitely stay again and thank Nik for welcoming us to his beautiful home :)
The cottage was wonderful. Very impressed with how well appointed the cottage was. Very clean and plenty of space for our group of 7 adults and one dog. Great getaway for family day weekend. Nick was very very attentive to any questions we had.
