Perfect gateaway

Our stay at Janice's cottage was simply outstanding! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. Janice, our host, was incredibly welcoming and her communication was clear and prompt throughout our stay, making us feel right at home. The cottage itself was nothing short of ideal - cozy, comfortable, and impeccably decorated. Every detail seemed carefully considered, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that made it hard to leave. We enjoyed every moment of our time here so much that we're already planning our next visit! We won't hesitate to return as soon as possible. Thank you, Janice, for sharing your wonderful space with us. We can't wait to come back!

Amazing stay!

We had a blast at the beautiful Laughing Moose Lodge! The property itself is spacious and comes with pretty much everything you'll need for a cottage stay. We loved the gorgeous lake front views and the amenities on site (we especially enjoyed the sauna and the hot & cold tubs). It's also only a 30 minute drive away from the Algonquin east gate. We were able to get to the park without much traffic during the busy fall season. Janice was a great host! She was very flexible and responsive to our messages while giving us complete privacy during our stay. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Exactly as advertised

Despite some uncooperative weather, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is spacious and well-appointed. Everything was in excellent condition. Very comfortable with plenty of room to spread out but enough seating if we all wanted to hang out together. Great swimming! The lake was relatively warm with a clean sandy bottom. Cottage is an easy walk to the water’s edge that has a large beachy area. (FYI, watch for the occasional ATVs and dirt bikes on the public trail that runs between the cottage and the lake). We made use of the canoe and paddles provided - again, all in great condition. Hot tub and sauna were a welcome option in the evenings and on cooler days. Janice and her partner live in a trailer on site - something we were a bit concerned with at first - but this proved to be no problem at all. We are hoping to return next year!

Buying the lodge and hosting guests has been a wonderful experience for us. We are very happy we made the decision to move from the big city to cottage country.
