A peaceful waterfront cottage getaway!

We really enjoyed the Roseland Cottage! It's clean, spacious, and includes everything you need. Even coffee!! We saw spectacular sunsets over the water! The views are awesome! It was wonderful to sit on the deck and watch dolphins! The grounds were fun to explore with our dog! Next time we'll bring our boat.

Unique Property

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and unique property. The view is amazing. The deck and dock are a great place to relax. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and grilling out in the evening. Plenty of seating outside and room to have our family over to. There was even a fire pit and a horseshoe pit. Very well stocked kitchen. Plenty of towels and even a washer/dryer. My constructive criticism is: 1. The owner was very responsive prior to our stay and answered questions I asked, however, once we got there, I was unable to receive a response to my questions even though I called and texted the number provided and emailed the same place I was getting my questions answered before. The first day we wanted to use the canoe that was advertised but there were no oars, I sent a couple messages seeking the oars and did not receive a response until after 10:00 p.m.-much too late to go canoeing. Someone did bring oars by the following day but we had plans so missed out on the canoeing we intended to do the first day. I also sent a message regarding how to turn the patio lights on and never received a response to that. The second day we were there, the owner text asking if we needed anything and saying she was sending someone to check on us, but no-one ever came. 2. Bugs! Once the sun sets, you will get eaten alive, bring lots of bug spray or plan to stay inside. We all had about 30-40 bites each on our legs and ankles when we got home from the weekend. 3. There is no set parking spaces, just kind of an empty lot. This lot is very soft sand and there should be some kind of warning or it should have been blocked off. My husband got his truck stuck in the sand and had to be towed out. The next night, another family member got their vehicle stuck and everyone had to push to get it out. Park as close to the cabin as possible. 4. Although I paid a cleaning fee and left a tip and the place appears clean visually, the grill was filthy with dirty paper plates, paper towels and foil inside. Your feet will also turn black if you walk around the house barefooted so could use a mop 5. Lastly, there is a very nice 2 head shower. However,the hot water is tricky and you must line the knob up just right. If you go to far to the hot side, it will turn cold again. The first night we took cold showers because we didnt know this and our text was not answered until late in the evening. A small sign in the bathroom explaining this would save others from having to shower cold

The Roseland cottage is a great place to stay! It's cute, clean and includes everything you need. We enjoyed the spectacular sunsets from the deck. We saw lots of wildlife, from dolphins in the river to bunnies in the yard! The grounds are peaceful and secluded yet close to stores and restaurants.

Bug heaven

Our first night on the property something kept banging on the bedroom sliding glass door we got no sleep. The bugs outside will carry you away I got ate up needs to have a screen Lanai. Ants were super bad on the kitchen counter. There was one roll of toilet paper for four people for 4 days, I had to buy more. Was not very happy with our stay.

Roselind Cottage

The location of the property is excellent for anyone who loves to fish. The dockage was so convenient after launching the boat at nearby boat ramp. The cottage had everything you need for a comfortable stay. We did have a few hiccups during our stay, but they were resolved by the management. We will definitely be coming back next November.

Great experience

This house was just perfect. Very nicely decorated & furnished. Has all the kitchen items you would ever need + more. Great mornings sitting on the back deck overlooking the water. Enjoy fishing from the very impressive dock. No need to bring any outdoor seating there is plenty of options there. Only negative would be the bad water smell from the inside running water.

Great Labor Day family getaway

The property was lovely! Exactly what we needed for our long weekend away boating with our kids. The dock is so nice to sit and relax and well equipped with slippage for boats. The owner was very nice and helpful with making sure we were set up. Even helped us get our trailer parked. We were very appreciative and would love to go back! Thank you Tom and Pam:)
