Incredibly Cozy, Quiet Spot. Absolutely Spoiled

What an absolute delight! The place was even better than the photos, and it was truly a warm, comforting place. You can tell that Don put in a lot of thought to really deck out the place. He keeps the Fireside Resort especially clean, was actively available/helpful, had lots of goodies, and was quite easily, one of the best hosts we've experienced. Would highly recommend coming here!

This property and the host Don was amazing. Don was always just a text away and very friendly and helpful. We all had the best sleep in the most comfortable beds and pillows. The water and the kayaking was amazing. Thankyou Don

Great cottage - lots of space & amenities

The cottage was even better than the photos. The host is amazing - he left so many extra treats for us. The space is very clean & has everything you will need and then some. The river was nice for swimming. I appreciated that tubes and kayaks were included! Lots of good space to hang inside and out. Nice beds. Well stocked kitchen. Thank you and we would love to come back.

A Wonderful Experience

It is hard to find something wonderful to say about the Fireside Resort that has not already been said in previous reviews. It truly is an amazing resort. I agree that the resort is even better in real life. It also didn’t take long for us to realize why so many positive things have been said about Don. He clearly loves what he is doing. He is the kind of guy that you just want to sit down and have a drink with. He has thought of so many extra things that made our stay even better than our already high expectations. We all had an amazing week. It truly was a wonderful experience. Everyone in our group is looking forward to returning next summer.
