Really great place to stay. Beautiful lake views, along with the hot tub, sauna and games like darts, foosball and the arcade screen were really nice touches. Well equipped kitchen. Be advised, you will need to bring your own firewood for campfires and wood stove, and they do not provide blankets on the beds.

We had a good stay. Accurate pictures and descriptions. Kitchen cupboards are all labeled with the contents which makes finding items a breeze. Big and beautifully landscaped property. The only suggestion to the owners would be to cut down some of the sumac shrubs as you cannot see the dock or shoreline from the deck or sunroom. We enjoy watching family members fishing but unfortunately couldn't see. Lake was quiet and we saw the most majestic fox 2 nights.

Great property, amenities were above and beyond. Host failed to let us know that the key was located in a place different that what was listed, leaving our party in the icestorm for over an hour and was not able to be contacted.

Head Lake Oasis

Our group of 7 had an awesome time at this cottage. Communication was great and there was enough room and activities for all. The canoes and kayaks were great for a day trip to Queen Elizabeth Highlands Park.

This cottage was great, clean and well appointed. It had a beautiful view, dock and good fiahing. Check-in was easy. The cottage was clean and super well appointed. I've definitely called other cottages well appointed but this was actually really well appointed. There was hardly anything we were wanting for. Strangely, it has more bathrooms than the listing says: there are three, and one of the showers is separate from where the toilet is, which is handy when you're dealing with a 8 people. I never thought of a washer dryer as a "need" in a rental before, but it was very nice to have it to dry off bathing suits and towels. You do have to take your garbage to the dump or home. Please note the mearest dump has a 15 minimum charge and is not easy to locate without GPS. I have no complaints and will consider this cottage for future trips.

It was alright

**Hot Tub was not working which killed the mood for the rest of the stay as it was one of the main reasons we booked it as suggested in the listing title**Place is clean and communication is good.

Winter Ladies Weekend

This was our second time booking a two nights stay at the cottage. Ladies group of 4. Plenty of living and sleeping space! The cottage is clean and has everything you need! We cozied up to the wood fire stove, played games & puzzles, and watched movies! The hot tub has a beautiful view of the lake! Brought our snow shoes and took a walk down the road to take in all of nature's beauty!

Beautiful Cottage with Strings Attached

The cottage was beautiful, with great amenities and a stunning view from the cozy sunroom. However, the listing did not include pertinent information that would have made me second-guess booking it. We had to bring all our own sheets/blankets and bath towels, there was no garbage pick-up (and the dump was closed so we had to cart it home in our cars), and the promised supplies (toilet paper, paper towel, etc.) were very limited. There were signs everywhere threatening our security deposit at the slightest infraction. It gave the overall impression that we were not to get too comfortable in the space. These rules and requirements should be very clearly noted in the listing, not held behind a "paywall" (wherein I have to book the space and pay the deposit to find out all these rules and restrictions).
