A wonderful, quiet getaway

The property is charming and nicer than we were actually expecting. We had regular communication with Gregori, who even offered some above and beyond service in case our vehicle had troubles with the private road (when he suggests a 4x4 vehicle, there is good reason). The bed is one of the more comfortable I’ve ever slept on and the bedrooms (like the rest of the place) are well appointed. I hope to return and experience the property in another season. We saw a number of deer, as well as a snow owl, some blue jays and a lot of loons out on the lake. I’d be curious to see what we spot in the spring. A 100% endorsement without reservation.

Lake retreat

Very quiet lake retreat … we enjoyed sitting on the screened-in deck off the main bedroom overlooking the lake.

Perfect getaway

We had a very relaxing week at this quiet, lovely cottage. The views from both decks are gorgeous; we loved watching the sun rise over the lake. The cottage has everything we needed and is minutes from Perth. We would recommend it.
