Great location, cozy cute cottage that was perfectly outfitted. It is one block to the beach, restaurants and shops. We enjoyed our days at the beach, the fire pit at night, the neighborhood was quiet and the people were friendly.

Lake Loft

Our stay was great, the portable AC unit and fans worked well to keep the space cool even in mid July. Super close to restaurants/bars and the beach, plenty of space for the four of us. Good spot for a few days at the lake. We would stay again if we are in Sylvan.

Cozy

Great place - clean and cared for. Surprisingly, no dishwasher or microwave and no extra toilet paper. Loved the main bedroom and the loft!

It was our pleasure to have you guys❤️ We are glad you liked the place! Our guest experience is the most important to us. I am very sorry to hear you weren't able to find the extra toilet paper. We do have additional supplies available there. The house is set up for a 4 person occupancy. Since you had a group of 7, we would have let you know where you could grab more had we known. Heritage homes definitely have their charm, but can sometimes add limitations. Potentially in the future, we can find a solution to adding a microwave and dishwasher. The property listing does show what is available in the house, but we will look to see where we can clarify that more for guests. Thank you for staying with us! We hope to see you again soon 🙂

Charming home, 5 minute stroll to the beach

Manager was really responsive, house was really cute and appointed with lots of care. Lots of room for 3 adults and a 10 year old. Location was perfect for beaching, walks on the lakefront, and endless places to eat and drink. Will definitely be back :)

Summer Cottage fun!

Close to the beach, clean and did the job perfect for 4 adults Right by shopping and a great place to enjoy family time. No microwave or dishwasher giving more time to bond over doing dishes. Definitely want to come back
