Overall a great vacation. We appreciated you getting us the lights. The issue was the mildew smell in the basement that made its way throughout the house when we first arrived. It would be nice to have lamps in the bedrooms and living rooms. The place felt well used and dingy. We thought the kitchen was well equipped and the patio off the kitchen was great for meals. Also loved the fire pit.
10.0
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Whispering Waves. While the property and amenities were great, it was the quick responses and actions by the Grey Bruce team that really felt like we had concierge type service for our entire stay. Can't wait to be back!

It was a wonderful, idyllic and rejuvenating stay! I would highly recommend to anyone!
