Reeve Cottage, Victoria Beach Vacation rental a filthy run-down nightmare, advertsied beach awasj with toxic alagae

Rented "The Reeve Cottage", a three-bedroom "old-fashioned" cottage at Victoria Beach Manitoba, from Catherine Davidson in Victoria, British Columbia, for two weeks in the summer of 2010. The ad on Kijiji Winnipeg waxed nostalgic about the cottage, suggesting a typical 1950s era cottage in the woods near a fabulous beach.

The cottage was filthy and in disrepair; the overpowering odor of mould and mildew inside suggested that the place had been closed up for months; however, the smell was soon eclipsed by that of a skunk that had made its home underneath back of the place, surrounded by high weeds. The neighbour/caretaker had advised us shortly after our arrival that he was leaving for Winnipeg, but his daughter might be up. The linens I paid for in advance were nowhere to be found.

The cottage had once been ventilated to let heat escape, but the upper vents were sealed.
