Our family had a wonderful time during our stay. Lots of indoor and outdoor space for hanging out, conversing, playing games and cooking/gathering. The lake is quiet and calm, we spent lots of time on the canoe, kayaks and paddle boat. The house is also nicely renovated and decorated. Great for family and friends.
Beautiful house with big bedrooms and washrooms, deck with Bbq and fire pit / lounge chairs Lake weedy to get in, had canoe with one broken seat but came and fixed Lovely hosts
Susan was very easy to communicate with and she responded immediately. Check in was very easy and Susan offered to meet us and give us a quick tour. We fell in love with Susan and Glen’s place as soon as we walked in the door. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The house and property was amazing with many sitting areas and a beautiful view. We loved kayaking and swimming in the lake and just relaxing in this quiet, peaceful place. We will definitely be back again. Thank you Susan and Glen!

What a pleasure it was to host Tina, her daughter, and granddaughter — three generations of wonderful women! From the moment they arrived, they were friendly, respectful, and treated our cottage as if it were their own. They left everything spotless and on time, and it warmed our hearts to know they enjoyed their time here. We would be delighted to welcome them back anytime!
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The canoeing and hiking is endless. The home is warm, inviting and the beds... sooooo comfy, and the bathrooms are to die for! They've thought of everything. The deck outback is so beautifully done. With options for cooking. BBQ, smoker, and a good old charcoal bbq as well. The gorgeous waterside patio is so thoughtfully done. I have only 1 blip, not really for anyone with mobility issue. Lots of stairs and big hill back up to the house. I mean that in the kindest way. I'd go back in a second if not for my issues. I highly recommend. Lovely owners as well. Plus my two maltese loved it.
