Fabulous accommodations and location!

We love staying at this cottage! The cottage itself is spotless and the bed were so comfortable. They provide absolutely everything you’d ever need for a great vacation. Tons of room for everyone in the open concept living room and eating area, and a great deck with lots of furniture to sit and take in the beautiful lake. It’s seconds from the beach and minutes away from the town of Gimli. We’ve stayed here twice and hope to make Tom’s fabulous cottage our annual home away from home.

Our stay here was absolutely amazing and more than we had imagined. The home easily accomodated a group of 7 adults. It was nice to have a bar area with a fridge near the patio for easy access to refreshments. The patio area was large and had lots of seating; we spent a lot of time out there!! The house was definitley set up for entertaining a group of adults, but I could also easily see bringing my family (two young boys) here as well. Being so close to the beach and several blocks to the shops and restaurants meant we could walk everywhere we needed to take in most of what Gimli had to offer. It was an a solutley perfect stay and we hope to make this an annual trip!!

A great place for family

Hard to find a good cabin that has enough bedrooms and dining space for a family of 6, and this cabin fits the bill to a tee. Had everything we need, beds were very comfy, great dining table to eat and play games and wonderful living room to socalize. A beautiful view of the lake and tons of great restaurants and shops close by. We went in the winter and the ice fishing village so close is great. Fenced in yard for our dog was very nice. Host there for anything you need.

Great Accommodations for Short Stay Golf Outing

Loved the location and the facilities. Ideal accommodation for 4 golfers who all prefer their own bedroom. Only criticism is constant hum heard and felt in all the bedrooms from HRV or furnace fan which cannot be turned off.

Very satisfied!!

We very much enjoyed our stay. There were 11 of us. Lots of room in the cabin and on the deck. Great location for beach use and walks. Our grandkids loved it, what a great family time. We used the fire pit both nights. The cabin was well supplied and very clean. Would definitely go again.

Beautiful Cottage in the Perfect Location

Our family had a great stay in Gimli and really enjoyed that the cottage was close to downtown but in the more quiet section of the beach. We could not have asked for a better cottage to meet our needs. Tom was very responsive to our messages and questions and was so nice to communicate with. We will be back next year!

Fishing trip

I have stayed in a lot of VRBO spots. This was the best owner communication I have ever had. Tom was very helpful and accommodating to all our needs. The homes were great and location perfect for our group Will be staying here again. The large living room area was really great where we all could be together comfortably with plenty of room

Relaxing Getaway

This was our first time using the VRBO site, and our first experience couldn't have been better! We couldn't have asked for a better place to relax and recharge. The location was awesome, as everything was within walking distance and the space was perfect for our family of 5, plus our dog. The kids are already asking when we're going back!
