Not recommended
Publié le 3 sept. 2024 sur HomeAwayVery disappointing experience at this cottage. The AC didn’t work. The rooms got so hot & stuffy, we had 2 sleepless nights. The wi-fi was extremely weak. Basic things like hand wash soap, dishwashing liquid, kitchen towels, which are usually provided in most vacation homes were not provided. We had to rush to the store to get them the night we arrived. We had initially booked our stay for 2 nights, and later extended it by 1 more day. The owner, Patrick had agreed to that. However, he had never mentioned when the extra payment was due, and as such we assumed we would settle all dues while checking out. On the third day, when we were out, he called and started yelling about the money and demanded we need to pack and leave immediately! We cancelled all our plans for the day, left the place but paid anyway for the third night before leaving. Overall, our experience was very poor and we wouldn’t recommend this vacation home to others.

Raj, Thank you for your review of Birchwood Cottages. We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations and would like to address some points. We do not offer air conditioning, as noted in our listing. We do provide functional box fans for each bedroom. Wi-Fi can be inconsistent due to factors such as network issues in our rural location. We have a quality mesh network on our property and are at the mercy of Spectrum. We clearly state in our documentation that consumable items are not provided, local stores are available if needed. Regarding your extended stay, we adjusted your reservation as requested and notified you via VRBO for the additional payment, required before check-in, per our policy. Despite reminders and follow-ups, we did not receive the payment nor a response from you. On the day of your original checkout, we found your pet in the unit and continued to await payment. We had to assume you were either staying without payment or had forgotten. Clear communication and adherence to our policies would have resolved this smoothly. We regret that your stay did not align with your needs and hope you have better experiences in future travels

Can’t wait to go back!
Publié le 12 août 2024 sur HomeAwayWe had a great week at Birchwood Cottages!! The cottage itself was clean and tidy. We enjoyed the kayaks, SUP boards, beach toys, etc that they have available for everyone to use.
We were there during a major storm, and lost power. We immediately were checked on and assured that the generator was on so we would at least have water. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. My youngest is already asking for us to book for next summer.

Birchwood Cottages Weekend Stay
Publié le 11 juin 2019 sur HomeAwayThe property is a part of a group of cottages, this particular cottage has wonderful lake views and is less than a one minute walk to the beach across the street. There are very few public beaches at this lake so having a private beach for these properties is very nice. The cottage was small but a perfect size for the group of four we had. There are many outdoor amenities they offer such as firewood for a fire pit right outside the cottage, kayaks, floats and beach chairs.
We did not like how you had to provide your own sheets and towels, this is very uncommon for a home rental. We also found an open tupperware container in the refrigerator with food still in it among other food left in the refrigerator and freezer which led us to believe the cottage wasn't cleaned very well. Since we had to pay a cleaning fee prior to our stay, we did not really appreciate having to provide our own sheets and towels and having food left from someone else.
There was also a disconnection between the property management company and the VRBO website. I was made to sign a contract without being told until after I had already paid for the visit. There were also multiple discrepancies about details on the website and contract, which made me nervous to sign the contract.

Sarah - thank you for staying at our property, in our Fireside cottage! We are glad you enjoyed the views and amenities offered at Birchwood Cottages.
It is typical in the Adirondacks, for a cottage rental property like ours (very few left operational) to not provide linens to everyone. We are non hospitality cottages, and listed as such (linens not provided) in the VRBO ad.
Contract signatures are required after you book because HomeAway/VRBO does not allow a separate contract within their booking process. We would only ever ask you to sign the contract once you've agreed to stay with us - but we have adjusted our verbiage within our ad to be more clear with this additional step.
We sincerely apologize for the cleaning mishap. Food left in the refrigerator and have already addressed it directly with our cleaning company -- we strive to prep these cottages appropriately for our incoming guests, and that is something that should never have been missed! We appreciate your review, and are glad you got some time away at the lake!
