Canal front property

We absolutely loved this location on the canal with boats/yachts traveling by mostly in the morning and late evening. It was very relaxing and a quaint place. The only cons were the couches/beds in the living room- they are not in a good position to watch the T.V. at night and they were very uncomfortable (the large pillows to lean up against did not hold their shape). Other than long black hairs on one of the towels, it was mostly a clean unit. I would recommend despite these smallish things.

nice location

The property was much smaller than I envisioned. I did like sitting out back on the water and watching boats and wildlife. It would have been nice to know there was no laundry facilities. My mistake is that I assumed there would be. Maybe I missed it in the property description that there wasn't any. Staying there for a full week necessitated purchasing more paper products like TP.
