Lovely cottage, and very responsive and friendly hosts. Great for relaxing with a book, or kayaking with the ones the hosts provide. Bring your canoe for nearby lakes in Frontenac or go hiking there, and biking on the Cateraqui. Great place for a dog who loves swimming!
This is a unique off grid cottage experience. It is eye opening to see first hand how solar energy and generator can power a living space. A short pontoon boat ride transports you to the cottage and there is a small boat at your dock to putter and fish on the lake. Suzanne and Randy are definitely super hosts and are very attentive to the smooth running of the cottage and your needs. The lake was beautiful to swim in and we enjoyed the small 'contemplation' deck in the forest behind the cottage. The outdoor shower was enjoyable. We loved our stay in the little cottage and we hope to visit again next year!
Six of us (grandparents, parents, and two young grand sons) had a great week. Great experience living off grid for a week. Lots of activities for everyone.
Lovely new cottage with great views of the lake. The owners were very accommodating and helpful supplying things like the boat and barbecue. It was a short walk down to the water which didn't have a Sandy beach but was very swimmable.
Property is great. Great views from the dock! Great spot for kayaking and pedal boating! Plenty of loons, blue heron and ospreys around. Fishing is great too! Northerns, bass, pearch and sun fish to catch. This was a great place for a retreat! The outdoor shower is great as well. We had some rain and thunderstorms and still had a great time. Cabin is really nice and comfortable. Fishing was great after the rain anyways. It's 10 feet deep at end of dock so its great for swimming! The only thing you need to be aware of is the outhouse. Its an outhouse. A nice outhouse. Still an outhouse though...lol
Would definitely do this again!!!
We booked the cottage and the host Randy and Suzanne answered our questions right away! We arrived and Randy was already there to charter us across the lake to our off grid cottage. We had a perfect view of the lake and the use of a motorized fishing boat, 2 kayaks, a canoe and a paddle boat and a raft. The cottage had a beautiful deck around the side and front of it! Lots of chairs everywhere! We even had a very peaceful deck a few feet behind the cottage in the woods to have a glass of wine and watch the sunset. I used it to do my exercises as it was very peaceful! We were fully stocked with life jackets, water, wood for the fire pit and gas for the boat and generator. We had a great week! We had to call Randy once bc the propane ran out and we didn't have any hot water in the shower. Randy was there and fixed it within 5mins of when we texted him! Our dogs loved it too! We have rented cottages every summer for years and this was hands down our favourite of them all! Thanks, Lori
Wir hatten ein tolle Woche in der kanadischen Natur. Direkt am See, mit einem eigenen Boot Aussentoilette und nicht immer warmes Wasser muss man abkönnen, aber dafür bekommt man Natur pur mit einem fantastischen Blick und Ruhe!!!Das Haus ist gut ausgestattet und die Vermieter machen alles möglich und sind sehr freundlich.
If you're looking for an off grid property with plenty to offer this is the one. From meeting a very welcoming Randy and his son Harris at the dock and being delivered to the island dock for an incredible 1 week stay, this place was everything we could have asked for. Randy made us feel like family right from the beginning and was very accommodating with anything we needed. Suzanne was also very quick to answer any of our concerns or questions. The accommodation was clean, beds comfortable and provided all the necessities we needed including amazing views from the oversized deck. We thoroughly enjoyed the use of the motor boat, kayaks and peddle boat and explored all parts of this beautiful lake. If you like to fish there are plenty of bass, perch and sunfish right off the dock! Definitely put this stay on your list!
This property is perfect for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! Accessible by boat only, it made for a really neat experience. Lots of outdoor things to do, including great swimming, kayaking, boating, fishing and games. Not far from beautiful Westport and Kingston, as well as some beautiful provincial parks. Suzanne and Randy are so accommodating and friendly to work with. We would highly recommend this for anyone with some camping experience looking for a great get-away!
Was beautiful, peaceful and quiet other than the falling acorns. Would stay again!

Wonderful time
Thank you to Randy and Suzanne (and Harris) for their hospitality. We were greeted right on time and ferried over to the property and were helped with our bags from the dock to the cottage.
The cottage is new and well stocked. We didn't need to bring those linens! The lake was clear and there was lots of use of the kayaks, paddle boat and fishing boat.
My father is not fully able bodied so found the stairs from the dock to the cottage a little challenging but Suzanne was very gracious in providing us an extra ferry in the pontoon boat back to the "mainland" as he wasn't able to use the fishing boat. The cottage had a ground floor bedroom too which is helpful. There is also a maritime toilet in the cottage for when it was a worry to venture outside.
I was a little apprehensive about the solar power and the outdoor facilities beforehand. We only needed to use the gasoline generator on the last day and it couldn't have been easier. The outhouse was actually a lot nicer than some of the regular bathrooms I have visited and the outdoor shower was a neat experience. No apprehension required.
If you're looking for a private, quiet getaway this is definitely one to put on your consideration list!
Pour une expérience différente, pour le calme et la beauté du paysage, avec sa vue imprenable sur le lac Buck, ce chalet saura charmer les amants de la nature. Pour s’y rendre, un bateau est nécessaire car aucune route ne mène sur cette rive du lac. Le propriétaire vous accueillera avec son ponton pour vous y conduire. Prévoyez déjà l’épicerie pour la durée de votre séjour si vous le pouvez car par la suite, les aller-retours de l’autre côté se font par chaloupe à moteur. Le chalet est « auto-suffisant » avec ses panneaux solaires et sa génératrice pour les jours de pluie. La toilette est extérieure, de même que la douche! Mais l’aménagement est enchanteur, ce qui rend l’expérience de la douche en plein air très agréable. Frigo, cuisinière au gaz, micro-ondes, BBQ, télé avec DVD, tout est pensé pour nous faciliter la vie. Près du lac, deux quais avec des chaises pour profiter du soleil, des kayaks, un pédalo et la chaloupe pour les déplacements. Le chalet est neuf, tout est propre et en bon état. Les matelas sont un peu durs, mais le propriétaire prévoit ajouter des pillow-tops. Randy et Susan sont très accueillants et disponibles puisqu’ils habitent juste de l’autre côté du lac. Nous recommandons!
