My girlfriend and I decided to leave after a few hours in the cottage for a number of reasons. The cottage was not clean....slightly brown liquid stains on the walls, finger nail clippings in the medicine cabinet, and rusty pans in the cupboards. The refrigerator was dirty with food remnants and there are old dirty sponges in the sink. Also, the jacuzzi switch is broken and requires using the circuit breaker in another room to function, the automatic entry gate is broken requiring unsafe entry and exit onto a very busy road, and no smoke detector or fire extinguisher as noted in the amenities section. Lastly, while trying to get to my truck to leave for the store a large dog ran up to me, jumped on me and would not let me get to my vehicle. I had to go inside. I tried calling Keith at that point to get the dog inside but there was no answer. I was concerned if I opened the gate the dog would run out into the busy road. I waited a few minutes and tried again but the dog was still there. Finally, someone came to get the dog. At that point we felt it was best to leave. Considering the circumstances, I am requesting a full refund. This whole situation was inconvenient and disheartening to say the least. A terrible end to a great day in Saratoga.
