Tranquil but weird
I messaged the owner the day I booked the property and heard no response for weeks.
Then 24 hours before I was due to arrive I messaged again.
No response.
So I just drove my happy ass up there day of at night and almost drove into a lake. The road was completely covered in probably 1-2 foot of water.
I walked around what I could and destroyed my shoes in the water & mud.
I called the guard in the middle of the night and she gave me the code to get in so I fell asleep shortly after.
When I woke up in the morning there were people walking around the pond surrounding the listing and the cottage is made of windows.
You are essentially in a fishbowl.
I felt like some modern art installation in a gallery, "Sad Damp American Man sleeps in Cottage" 2024
I guess there's a nature trail that runs straight through the property. So if you stay, make sure to:
-call first, don't message. You won't hear back
-bring some rain boots
-park well before you get to the property in case it rains
-pull the shades since you don't have much privacy
-bring your own toiletries as the shower does not include them.
Other than that it was actually very beautiful in a quirky way. The pond was lovely and there's a bench on the other side where you can sit and question your life's choices.
