Meaford Country Home

We had an awesome stay. The cottage had everything we needed

Charming older house, nicely renovated. Worked very well for our family. Very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was very well stocked - appliances, pots, pans, dishes, etc. The beds were very comfortable!

We all really enjoyed our stay! We had a family of 7 and all felt very comfortable! House was well stocked with pots pans and the essentials when we arrived! The bedrooms were very comfortable and clean, very well kept. Air conditioning units in two bedrooms on top floor which is great after a long day! However when cooking a big meal with oven on main floor it can get warm:) Backyard was very spacious and had lots of seating and a wonderful deck where we ate most of our meals! Very close to Meaford downtown and beach and was in a nice neighbourhood. Definitely would stay again!

While this quaint cottage boasts many nice features such as the sizeable kitchen and outdoor area, closer inspection on the condition of the home leaves a lot to be desired. From the moment we checked in the home had a very musty smell and felt very damp. Closer inspection revealed some serious moisture and mold issues in the downstairs bathroom. Even the furniture in the living room felt and smelt musty and damp. A dehumidifier and some mold removal are a must. Sitting outside on the back patio was nice, but you do need a great amount of strength the open the back door. We also couldn’t leave the door open as the storm door had holes in the screen and with the many mosquitoes around they would have filled the house. The air conditioner for the upstairs bedroom was appreciated, but it does drip onto the deck below, careful where you sit. The general cleanliness of the place was good. The beds were comfy and linens were fresh, but like I said closer inspection revealed there is a little more going on with this property that needs some attention. We were glad our stay was only two nights.
