The unit was in very poor condition. The first unit they offered they told us the heater wasn’t working. So they did move us to a larger unit at no additional cost. The shower in our unit had a broken and cracked shower pan. The crack could pinch your feet if not careful. The pan also had holes that the shower water was running into, going under the unit. There was no where comfortable to sit. After all it was a one bedroom with a living room and kitchen. Living space had two twin beds. Many other small issues. It was clear the owners haven’t seen the unit maybe in years. Very old and outdated. We’ve been staying at the Franciscan on and off for years. This was truly a disappointment. Hopefully someone will address these issues. The lake and scenery where beautiful.

Great stay overall! Clean and solid amount of accommodations in terms of a well stocked kitchen, easy parking, large selection of TV channels, comfortable couches/living room area, warm water, functioning heating unit etc. Only nitpick is was hard to locate at night due to non lit signage. Would have appreciated better signage and/or direction on where cottage was (ie across the street from the main beach facing cottages)

Pictures are very misleading, so be aware of that. It’s a gamble what room you’ll get. Location is great though. I booked a comfort studio, they gave me a classic studio for half of the stay, I had to argue a little with them to give me the correct room. Average stay.
