About the host

Why they chose this property
My most cherished memories growing up are being at my grandmothers cottage. As i got older it became clear I wanted a cottage of my own to continue creating those memories with friends and family. I have some family in Bancroft which is why I was drawn to the area. I rent the cottage out during the summer and fall. I rent the cottage to help with costs and renovations.I consider this my home and I am here as much as I can be. I want others to enjoy it as well, and at a reasonable price.
What makes this property unique
The property is pretty unique. It is a very long and narrow lot leaving a lot of room between neighbors. I love that it is a quiet part of Baptiste lake and how close it is to the town of Bancroft. The house was built very close to the water which makes for an amazing view. The lake is shallow. pristine & full of wildlife. If you're up early enough, you will see the otters swim by while you eat breakfast.
