A delightful hide-away! Rustic outside and modern indoors. So well equipped. A real retreat. It would be nice to have a book to record wildlife sightings. Very quiet. A perfect retreat spot for 1-2 people.

This property was outstanding - clean, beautifully furnished, wonderful setting on the river, large living areas and sun room, good storage, location close to stores and restaurants, modern kitchen and washrooms. In fact, the pictures on the listing do not do it justice - we loved it and will book for longer on our next visit to the Waterloo area. Owner even worked to provide us with early entry which was helpful to us.

This place was perfect! My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary weekend and it was a great little escape while still being close to so much! Beautiful place that had everything we needed. nice sunroom and view of the river. Lots of squirrels, bluejays and chickadees to watch in the morning.

Great weekend getaway

It was a great weekend at the cottage where we celebrated my finances birthday. It came as advertised and the host replied back quickly if we had any questions. The cottage had a secluded nature feel while being a 5 minute drive from the shopping centre. Would definitely stay again.

The pictures of this property do not do it justice. It is modern and spacious. The windows facing the rear yard and Speed River make the environment open and just as relaxing as sitting in the backyard. It is truly a special getaway. I was able to walk to the mill run trail and took it about 3 MI to the West and back. It is very close to lots of businesses and other amenities while feeling like you are in the middle of the Woods.
