Lake cottage
Awesome location. Beautiful scenery. Worked for me and 3 of my buddies on a golf trip. Lacked some basic amenities. Some items were broken prior to us arriving. Inside of stove was very dirty. We made steaks the first night and the stove almost smoked the house out. Could have used some extra pillows and blankets as we had a couch sleeper and someone with a cot to accommodate 4 adult men. Overall we enjoyed our stay and worked for what we needed. Will definitely be back and will come more prepared for what the property was lacking.

Clean and comfortable
The cottage was great for the two of us. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The walk to the lake was steeper than we expected and was a bit of a challenge for us seniors. There were plenty of things to do in the area. We enjoyed Lake St Catherine and visiting nearby Manchester.

Great weekend getaway!
This property was just what we needed to relax in this spacious, clean and great location getaway. The Evolve team and property owners quickly answered all questions we had. The beautiful peony bushes surrounding the property were in full bloom, beautiful and fragrant. You can tell the owners care about their property!

Great weekend getaway!
The property was spacious, clean and well stocked (kitchen equipment, utensils and bathroom). Proximity to Little Lake and quick 5 minute paddle to Lake Saint Catherine were perfect. Communications with property owner was simple and provided fast responses!
