My large family had a great time at this property. Over the 5 nights that we stayed we especially loved the beach access. The cottage was clean and well maintained. The host was always very responsive. The hot tub was a hit with everyone. The property had a lot of amenities not normally found on a property of this size. A real find in cottage country. We would definitely love to return to this property.

Beautiful, Clean and Comfortable
Our group had a wonderful, relaxing and comfortable time at Ethan's cottage. The place is exactly as described and as pictured in the listing. It is very clean and well-furnished to host large groups. There was more than enough dishes, utensils, glassware and linens to comfortably house our large group. We frequently rent cottages and Ethan's cottage is the cleanest and best one we've rented. We were very comfortable and would visit again.
Ethan is a great host who is helpful, friendly, accommodating and very quick in his responses. Thank you again for a great cottage getaway!
The property is perfect! We love it and we will come back to it soon!

Property is as advertised. Very nice.
Spent the weekend at Ethan’s place with friends. We really enjoyed ourselves. Great host, Ethan was always available which made it nice. Quick responses. Great place to get away with family/friends. Excellent view of the lake. Many activities to do at his place. For example, air hockey and ping pong. Great location, it’s close to many amenities. I would definitely book this place again.

Fantastic Location- Very nice owner
It's a beautiful cottage just less than an hour from Toronto with very nice view. some improvement are required for heating system and internet, and the owner who is very nice guy is willing to fix those issues, but over all we had a very good time. Strongly recommended.
