Perfect Lake Retreat

What a wonderful stay! It was so relaxing and exactly as described. We stayed on a weekday so we got to see the Wednesday night sailboat race. The beach in front of the house offered a perfect location to watch from. We hope to be back next year!

Family Get Together

Ideal place to just relax, sit by the waters edge and watch the sailboats and lakers on the lake. Of course, the sunsets are often quite spectacular. This year, we enjoyed a sandy beach leading to the lake. This wonderful 3 bedroom cottage is very clean, tidy and beautifully decorated. It’s set in a quiet neighbourhood and probably best suited for vacationers who enjoy quiet peaceful endeavours. We had a wonderful time and look forward to our next return visit.

Wonderful weekend stay..

We enjoyed the weekend visit at this amazing place on the water. The house was clean and had everything that we needed, what a relaxing time we had. The best part was walking down to our own beach and sitting by the water. We will definitely be back another time! 😍

Perfect week on the beach

Mary’s place on the beach is so lovely! It helped that I had the most perfect weather for my September vacation. The cottage is comfortable and the location is great - cottage in the city. Mary is a wonderful host to communicate with, and she ensured that all my questions were answered. Highly recommend!
