Burnt River Estates Family Week

Our 4 adult children, 3 partners and 4 grandchildren had a wonderful week at this cottage. Everyone loved the cottage building, grounds, kayaking and canoeing on the river. We had lots of birds singing in the trees. Neighbours were unnoticeable. Indoor space spacious. Microwave stopped working so hopefully they will replace that. Could have used more table knives. Less than the number we had in our group. Air conditioning was colder in basement and certain rooms, but overall was certainly nice to have. Instructions on garbage was confusing. Was very pricey but you get what you pay for. We needed lots of bedrooms. Was thrilled to find this cottage not too far a drive for most of our family. River shoreline a little mucky but able to swim of water trampoline and dock. Would highly recommend it.

Burnt river adventure

The actual house is amazing huge with all the amenities you would need We a total of 16 and there was ample room to sleep for all us. The property is very well secluded If I have one issue I wasn’t to crazy got was the water front, it was very small , no beach, and right around the water the area was covered with geese crap, you had to dance around obstacles to get to the water. Having said I was the only one complaining about the water etc the 14 loved everything about it. Overall I would give it a4.1/2 stars and would goback

We had a wonderful time!! This property has everything you would want.

The location is really peaceful. We enjoyed kayaking and canoeing on the river. The house is very comfortable with room for everyone. The kitchen was large and well stocked with all the appliances/dishes etc you would want. There was firewood available for a fire and the hot tube was lovely. We all really enjoyed our stay.
