Downtown Fish Creek, Sleeps 6 - Yellow Birch Cottage

Welcome to Yellow Birch Cottage, hosted by Simple Life Rentals! This cottage is part of a condo association, located in a quiet area right off of the main drag. It is two stories and features 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms- both bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms with new granite countertops.

Almost perfect
The cottage, its location, and our stay were outstanding. The communication was lousy-no response three separate occasions, which was disappointing and frustrating. We dinged the cleanliness score, also, because the carpets/rugs were FILTHY. The management can correct these issues if they care enough.

The rental was nice with the exception of a few things: The front door was hard to lock/unlock, the fireplace didn't work, there were no lights in the living room making it hard to read in there at night, no explanation of the TV subsriptions. Other than that, the place was comfortalbe, and close to downtown. I would recommend it to others.

Mixed Emotions
The location of the property was perfect for us as it is in the heart of Fish Creek. The condo also was perfectly suited for adults and was comfortable with a good layout. Being a veteran traveler, we have come to expect a certain quality at this price point. Unfortunately, there were several issues that weren’t good, the two televisions on the property were extremely small and even hard to see while sitting down, the fireplace gas supply was turned down so low it barely made a fire that you could enjoy, the master bathroom, master shower light didn’t work, blinds, and seat covers were broken, garbage disposal didn’t work and there was no grill on the property as we had expected. Most concerning the exterior lights did not work, which made it very difficult to enter the door key code, and get in and out of the condo at night. I reached out to the management company before I posted my review. Their only comment was they would pass it along and give us a 10% discount on our next stay???????? Thus my mixed emotions. I really enjoyed the location and set up but would expect the property to have checked these types of issues before quests arrived.

Wonderful Couples Weekend Getaway
Wonderful place to stay for a couples weekend getaway. Location is fantastic, everything in Fish Creek is within walking distance. Each bedroom has an attached full bathroom which was awesome for 2 couples to stay in and not have to share a shower. Place was very clean and spacious. Would stay here again for our future trips to DC!

Good but not Great!
We enjoyed the outdoor patio immensely especially because the patio chairs were more comfortable than the living room furniture. The kitchen was awesome...well appointed and very nice. The laundry area was great as well. The beds are rather old and very hard! This might be alright for younger folks but for 68 year olds, they were low to the floor, hard to get out of. The carpeting needs a good cleaning, especially the stairway and there were at least 8 light bulbs that were burned out (kitchen, step lights, pendant over the sink, both lights in the showers and the light bar over the master bath) and those should be replaced. The GFI outlet on the patio does not work nor did the outlet to the right of the stove. I don't want to give this property a bad review but for what you pay for cleaning fees etc. one would expect a bit more. With a few minor adjustments this home would be better for the next folks to stay in.

Girlfriends Getaway
This was my first time renting a place that was not a hotel. It is a very nice place to stay close to town. Some minor things were in need of repair, which should have been done before our stay. The pull out in living room did not have any bedding. I was also surprised when I got the finally confirmation and door code that we were responsible for things like stripping beds, cleaning dishes, taking out garbage, etc. considering the ridiculous amount of fees that I was charged everything should have been taken care of for that price.

We had a fantastic time here; this condo was perfect for our group. Things changed a bit on our end from the original plan and the property managers were receptive, prompt and very easy to work with. Our family stays in VRBO properties often and this unit/location was a great find. We will be back at this property again.

Nice place, cleaning crew could have done better
Examples: Dust on shelf in upstairs bathroom. Dust & man's shoe found under livingroom couch. Sheets/blankets needed for downstairs pullout. Hand towels & wash cloths stored.. lower level. Coffee was privided but no coffee filters. Lower level bathroom...tissue holder broken. Dining area blinds "pull" fell off immediately, leaving us to believe it was already broken. ** We were a group of 6 women, all 75 yr old, so yes...sheets, towels, cleanliness are important.

Fish Creek Cottage
Cute little cottage on the main road running through Fish Creek. Walkable to all the shops and restaurants in town, which was very convenient. Sparkling clean and comfortable. Our younger kids had fun swimming in the pool and my teen and I enjoyed short walks to the coffee shop down the street. If you like to sleep on more than one pillow bring some with you - only two pillows on the queen bed in the primary bedroom and no pillows provided for the pull out couch. There were plenty of blankets, towels and dishes. This cottage is right on the street running through Fish Creek. The speed limit is low but there are cars and people going by. We really enjoyed being close to everything so this didn’t bother us. Would stay here again without hesitation.
