We’re a group of 4 women meeting between Toronto and Ottawa for a girls’ August getaway. This cottage is exactly as shown. Beds comfortable, and lots of space in the kitchen/living area for us, although we spent the bulk of our time outdoors on the rock area or dock. Cottage is renovated and super clean. Bonus, there’s A/C but we never needed it as there are lots of windows to open to provide a great lake breeze. The host, Jennifer, was awesome and friendly to deal with. She’d check in with us and promptly responded to any queries we had about the place. The lake water is a lovely temperature and not super busy with boats, so you can swim a good distance safely. I would suggest bringing water shoes as there’s quite a few weeds/rocks you encounter when getting in/out as there is no latter on the dock. If you’re more than 4 people, I would also suggest bringing extra lawn chairs. We loved our stay and would definitely rent again! Thanks, Jennifer!!
Beautiful views!

It was lovely to host you all. We hope to see you again soon. Thanks for the review 😊 and ideas- we have a dock ladder on it now and will make sure to have extra chairs to help guests save on what they have to bring! Be well & happy travels Jenn
