Had an amazing experience, home was very well kept and clean. The back yard had an amazing view and lots of fun things to do. Friends wanted to use the hottub which was the only thing we noticed to not be as clean as the rest of the house but that's okay. Overall had an amazing time !!

We do maintain the hot tub regularly, but we’ll definitely take a closer look to make sure everything is at its best for future guests. Appreciate you pointing that out.
Thanks again for staying with us!
Host was welcoming, kind, and provided lots of help, answered all our questions. Cottage was stocked on essentials, and made the whole trip a blast.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic stay and that our hospitality, along with the cottage's amenities, made your trip a blast.
It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we're so glad we could help make your getaway enjoyable and stress-free. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another memorable visit!
Every area of the house was very well thought out and allowed space for everyone. Just a couple suggestions would be to have some helpful instruction of the fire pit, such as having to buy your own fire wood, etc just so they know what to bring without having to go back out. Also, a hand rail going down to the basement would be helpful and safe.

Thank you so much for your glowing review and for taking the time to share your thoughtful suggestions. We're absolutely thrilled to hear that your family enjoyed the space and found it well-suited for everyone.
We truly appreciate your feedback regarding the fire pit—adding clearer guidance, such as information about bringing firewood, is an excellent idea, and we’ll be updating our house manual to reflect that. Your comment about a handrail for the basement stairs is also very helpful, and we’ll be looking into ways to improve safety and accessibility for future guests.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be more than happy to welcome you and your family back anytime.

Thank you
This property had everything as listed and was true to the photos and descriptions. We had a fantastic stay enjoying the space and time by the lake. The kitchen was well stocked, better than any rental property our group has been to, which was a huge help when preparing big meals and during clean up. The host was very helpful in lead up to the trip and had an exceptionally fast response time whenever we had questions.

A great space for a quiet family vacation. Neighborhood was very quiet, peaceful, relaxing.

Thank you so much Diane. Your review is beautiful! It really was a pleasure hosting you and the rest of the group. I am very happy that you had a fantastic weekend. You would definitely be welcome to stay here again, anytime.
All the best!
We had a fantastic time staying at the house in the lake! Plenty of space for ten people. Kids had the basement to themselves and were in heaven. Fished, had bonfires and enjoyed the hot tub. Rented a pontoon and jet skis from a local establishment right down the street.
We recently stayed at this cottage for 3 nights. It is clean and spacious for our group of 10. The detailed house rules were easy to follow and lake access was very convenient.The beddings are clean and comfortable. The kitchen is very well equipped. The view from the sunroom was fabulous and we had a great time.

Thanks so much Will H! We’re so glad that you enjoyed it. Welcome back anytime 😊
The cottage is spacious, clean, well-equipped and attractive. There was plenty of eating, sleeping and sitting room for our family of 11. The outdoor area is comfortable. We spent most of our time in the water, on the lily pad, kayaking, sitting on the dock, in the hot tub, relaxing in the shaded sitting area and chatting around the lighted fire pit. Thanks Ethan for being attentive and pleasant.
We stayed here with 15 family members to celebrate my mother’s 80th birthday. It did not disappoint! From the moment you walk in the door and see straight through the sunroom windows to the beautiful view of the lake, you realize you are in special place. The house is spacious and immaculate. Just when you think you’ve seen everything, there is more! Not to mention the well kept back yard with jacuzzi and your own private dock. I got so many compliments on finding this amazing place. I would not hesitate to stay here again! And a special thanks to Dylan for being so attentive to any of our needs. He is an amazing host!

I’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime for more unforgettable memories!
There 8 adult men in my group. We stayed 4 nights. We had a lot of gear since we were ice fishing. I asked each of them if they were happy with the accommodations. Each replied "yes." It suited this big group very nicely. All said they'd stay here again if we come back to fish. Very nice, big place!

Hi Dave,
Thank you for your kind words! I’m delighted to hear that the house was a great fit for your group and that everyone enjoyed their stay. It’s wonderful to know the space accommodated all your gear and made for a comfortable ice fishing trip.
We’d love to welcome you all back anytime—hopefully for another successful fishing adventure!
Best regards,
We spent most of the time off property golfing or at the Canadian Open golf tourney but the time on property was very relaxing. The water pressure is great. The beds are great. We used the breakfast nook daily with the great view. We took in the sunset and used the big screen TV for some sports events. It is a very enjoyable lake cottage. Thank you!
