Beautiful, comfortable, and fun

This cottage is very impressive. Despite the sprawling size of the property, it is also quite private and this really makes for an enjoyable stay with a "retreat" feel. We had 11 adults staying and there was more than enough room for everyone to have an entire bed and bedroom to themselves. There were enough canoes, kayaks, and boards (plus a paddleboat) for everyone to be out on the water at once. The kitchen and dining room were extremely well stocked with cookware and appliances - we cooked constantly and produced several mutli-course gourmet meals with ease. Despite a storm in the days prior to our arrival, we had no issues with power or water. Kelly was very responsive and helpful in the days leading up to arrival, being incredibly flexible with our arrival and checkout timing. I highly recommend this place!

Kawartha paradise

This beautiful property is in a quiet area of the lake with stunning 180 degree views. Plenty of space to spread out and relax as a family or group. Everything you need is available and accessible. Booked for the next trip before we left the first one, enough said. Gorgeous vacation retreat!

Beautiful property— outside & in!

This is our 3rd year back and this place never disappoints! It’s spacious, clean, and beautiful— outside & in. The owner is very responsive & our group literally has never had any complaints. It’s really great for a week/weekend away by the water!

Why they chose this property

This cottage offers something for everyone. After years of renting places for our annual extended family vacation, we knew the struggles of renting for large groups. With 7 bedrooms, everyone can have their own bedroom - and the teenagers enjoy the privacy of the studio off the garage. The outside deck is so large, everyone can enjoy the space and the outside table was custom built to ensure groups of 18 can sit for dinner to eat together. Even the table inside sits up to 16. There is great swimming for kids, it has a sandy and shallow walk in and jumping off the dock is allowed.
