A delightful experience was shared by us all. We enjoyed the huge space in the backyard for parking and kids' games. We enjoyed the large space in the front, with access to the water. The gas fireplace by the barbecue was awesome. Everything you needed was there. The host responded quickly to our questions. The grand old piano was a big hit with the great-grandkids. A very enjoyable place for sure. The mosquitoes at night were a bit of a problem so bring mosquito repellent. Would definitely return.

We hosted our wedding celebration at this property and we couldnt have been happier, the property is amazing with a large deck and the view is to die for with weeping willows and the lake in the background would highly reccomnd if looking for that rustic lake charm.

Great family spot

Beautiful property. It was great for kids to hang out and enjoy the waterfront. Screens on the windows and air con would be a plus, but overall it was amazing value for money and we were thankful for the opportunity to enjoy it.

Perfect Getaway

Perfect, exactly what was represented, fully stocked, quaint little cottage. Plenty of room for 4 adults, sleeping in the bunk beds was like having a sleepover, lots of laughs. The grounds were very nicely done, privacy from the neighbours and more than enough seating. Highly recommended!

Nice and quirky cottage

We had a great time in this nice and quirky cottage. The place is full with all you need and the yard is amazing, especially for someone coming from the city. My only complaint is that the BBQ grill plate is dirty and rusty.

Great Cottage

It was a great place to stay and would recommend to anyone. It was very clean, check in process was extremely easy. The listing is exactly as it says, very quiet neighborhood. It will be nice once they complete the renovations that they are wanting to do but this never effected our stay. Pretty well any necessities were supplied, it was an all around great place!

Grandkid's get away

We had a lovely time at your home, with lots of kayaking and swimming, and a spacious deck for relaxing with a book and a cool drink afterwards. The house was well-stocked with all the "non-food" essentials anyone would need.

excellent oasis for our family

we were in the area for 3 days and didnt want to be stuck facing hotel room walls and eating out always. With 2 infants, 2 toddlers under 6, and 6 adults - having this gorgeous space to stretch out and relax was perfect. waterfront, things for kids to do, and lots of deck space for hanging out. a great setup..

Fantastic stay on this beautiful property.

We had such a great time on this well appointed property. The cabin itself has lots of character, is spacious and is well stocked with anything you could need to feel at home. The yard was beautifully manicured, and we made use of all the outside games provided. It was so nice to have a kayak and canoe available to cruise the lake. We would definitely rent again. Dawne our host was lovely and very responsive. 10/10 recommend for a little family getaway.

Cute Eclectic Homestead with Amazing Views

The house has lots of space and lots of supplies. The backyard is amazing. Yes it’s older and it creaks and squeaks but that’s part of the charm. There is some work to be done but you can see they are working on it little by little. We really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Lake House

My family and I enjoyed our stay at this property. The backyard was huge and the dog enjoyed playing there. We had so much kayaking in the lake and our dog loved going for a swim. The house was very well stocked and the only problem was that there were a lot of spiderwebs but the host had told us that they come back very quickly after being removed. Communication with Dawn was very good. We enjoyed our stay here and we are definitely coming back!

Summertime Relaxation

Beautiful property, easy communication with the host Dawne. Highly recommend for the backyard alone. Looking forward to another stay when the new dock is finished. One thing that needs fixing for a better night sleep is the master bedroom bed frame. It makes a racket with every move, woke us up constantly. Overall, we had an amazing time, we were not ready to leave when our time was up. Thank you Dawne!😊
