Very obliging and helpful host with incredible knowledge about the skies. Convenient log home with comfortable amenities indoors, an outdoor fire area and canoes to tour the lovely lake. A wonderful stay!
Gary's cottage is beautiful and rustic with loads of charm! The lake is quiet and perfect for paddling - lots of wildlife to see. Gary is super nice and helpful and very accommodating and accessible. We had a great time at the gem of a property and plan on returning!
We are very impressed by the cottage. We are very thankful for the friendly treatment, spacious house, and lovely deck. And lots of extras like the night sky.
The log home is the perfect place to spend quality time with family and unwind in nature. Gary was extremely helpful with getting us acquainted with the property. Sharing his love for the stars was a special treat and was an incredible experience. It's a great location to see the night sky. The weather was amazing, and we were able to enjoy all the amenities - canoeing, time on the dock and hammocks, campfires, and more. Thanks for making our first family vacation memorable!
We enjoyed the weekend very much great host camp fire but no fish in the lake HaHa now we are planing for next year it will be at a different location since we will have kids with us so I will be searching during the winter MonthsThank youPierre&Monique Germain
Enjoyed the quiet space. It was hot although there a lot of fans to use. Great BBQing. Gary took us on the pontoon boat which was great.
Needs a bit of upgrading inside.
Great cottage - well-equipped, comfortable, and right on the lake. Gary called us beforehand to answer any questions and gave us a warm welcome when we arrived. Wonderful stargazing at night from the deck and birds, chipmunks, squirrels feeding right on the patio. As this is an authentic cottage experience, folks not based in Canada need to be aware that you have to bring bedsheets and towels (Gary is very clear and helpful on what you need to bring). Apart from that the cottage had everything we needed. A wonderful, peaceful getaway and a kind and welcoming host.
We had a fantastic stay at this cottage! Gary was excellent host—friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. He is an avid astronomer and astrophotographer and we spent a wonderful evening of stargazing with him.The location is perfect, right on the lake with beautiful views and peaceful surroundings. Bon Echo Provincial Park is just a short drive away and made for a great day trip with its hiking trails and stunning cliffs. Sand Lake’s public beach nearby was a nice bonus for a relaxing swim.
Very relaxing time with family in quiet and peaceful cottage. Nice fishing.
Gary made us feel very welcome. Really enjoyed the stargazing and the views of the meteor shower
The cottage and surrounding area were great to explore. Very easy to find and very cozy. Our host Gary was wonderful, very communicative and even offered us a tour of his observatory as well as a pontoon boat ride! Our pup loved him too :)
Would stay again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!
