Avis Lakefront All-Season Cottage with Hot Tub, Kayaks, Beach Pass

We are 4 adults who had an excellent stay in this spacious home. The common areas are large, and the kitchen is well equipped. There are enough towels, paper towels, dishwasher pods and toilet paper provided for the duration of the stay, which is much appreciated. Our 2 favorite rooms were the large room on the first floor and the large room above upstairs with a toilet. We enjoyed eating outside, even though the bugs liked to tease us. We love animals, so we loved discovering the visitors on the grounds: a cat, rabbits, a small deer and even a battle of swans! The courtyard is really intimate and quiet. We didn't use the kayaks provided to go in the pond in front of the dock. The proximity by car to Sandbanks beaches is perfect. The seasonal pass is provided free of charge by the host to visit the Sandbanks beaches. However, you must RESERVE your visit to Sandbanks a maximum of 5 days in advance for each day you wish to visit. It's important to do so to secure your place at the beach. You give the host's pass number when you book. Everything was explained to me very well by Mr. Bisnaire before my arrival. He answered my questions promptly. Thank you, Mr. Bisnaire!

Gorgeous property, very close to the beach.

Grandparents appreciated how master bedroom and full bath were on main floor for easy access. We also loved all the comfy beds and bedroom setup which worked beautifully for young and old. The modern kitchen was well equipped and big windows looking out to the green space and marsh ... we saw frogs, butterflies and hummingbirds in the backyard. One star deduction for spider webs on patio furniture but we understand we are sharing the space with Mother Nature. Overall lovely.

This property was so lovely. My friends and I were so happy when we drove up! Everything inside was beautiful and nicely labelled with clear instructions for use. Just an absolutely lovely cottage getaway. I would go back in a heartbeat
