Good stay

Beds were comfortable, good communication with host, dishwasher very welcome. Kitchen well stocked, 1 of the large burners on the stove, no way of controlling temperature, high heat all the time. Could have used siran wrap & a better fry pan. Kitchen sinks could of been more clean.A couple decks of cards & a crib board would have been welcome. Wi fi & TV worked well. Good for 10 adults.

What to expect at 121 Clam Lake, Kearney

Great experience. Communication with Hong was excellent from start to finish. Check in was simple. Some issues with cleanliness upon arrival which Hong dealt with quickly. Towels are available, we brought our own. Beautiful location, peaceful, private. An electric kettle would be a good addition. Plenty of room for all 7 of us, plus space for more. Great dock, awesome fire pit, amazing night skies. Highly recommend this place.

Beautiful winter getaway

This is one of the nicest cottages we've been to. Games room, pool table and clean linens and towels are a great bonus. Planty of space and bedrooms as well. Place was tidy and well vacuumed, however I've noticed kids socks were getting dirty after each day so would recommend a better mopping of the main area as the washrooms were well cleaned. If you are planning to make pancakes we couldn't locate a whisk or a mixer so we bought it at a corner store. Outdoors are beautiful as well.

Beautiful cottage and location

We had a wonderful time at Hong’s! The cottage is spacious, clean and perfect for a large family group of 10. We spent 4 nights during xmas and it was great! The communication with Hong was smooth, he was very responsive. The check in process was also easy. If you are looking to disconnect and have quality time with loved ones then I highly recommend this place!

Friends getaway

The property is great for larger groups, plenty of space. Unfortunately the fireplace is not useable and the dishwasher was broken. There also was a shortage of paper products, we did have to go and get toilet paper. All and all we had a great time

We loved our stay! Had a great time. The shallow entry into the lake was great for our younger ones. Had so much fun with the chipmunks and visits from a duck and her little ones! The only thing it was missing was Air Conditioning . Otherwise perfect!

Fantastic Family Cottage Vacation

Bright, spacious, quiet, private cottage. Comfortable beds, big eat-in kitchen. Perfect swimming in small warm lake with sandy walk in beach for toddlers plus a dock for deeper swimming. Our kids loved the amenities - peddle boat, kayak, canoe, trampoline, pool table. Great outdoor campfire spot by the water. Property has lots of both shade and sunny areas. Main road was great for long walks with morning shade and minimal car traffic. Host was readily available for questions. We look forward to staying there again!

Great space and location!

Three families with young children had a great vacation at this cottage. There was plenty of space and lots of sunshine. The lake is quiet and beautiful! Our only complaint is the cleanliness - it was not well cleaned when we arrived. We went out of our way to clean it before our departure and was shocked to have our deposit withheld due to inaccurate claims by the cleaning company. The property manager resolved the issue.

3 generation family vacation

The property was located in a lovely area on a spacious lot with plenty of trees, resulting in plenty of privacy. The lot extended down to a small, clean lake with a small sand beach and a dock. I don’t know if motorized watercraft are banned on this lake but we didn’t hear or see any. Our family make good use of the canoe, paddle boat and kayak (kayak arrived part way through our week’s stay). The cottage had plenty of room for the 10 of us and was well equipped. I quite enjoyed having a break from wifi and from satellite TV. There were plenty of movies downloaded and available for our use. Hong responded promptly to my queries and concerns both before and during our trip. Unfortunately when we left we left our grandson’s stuffed animal Bunny behind. A quick email to Hong resulted in a successful rescue mission by the cleaning staff. We thank Hong and her cleaning staff for expediting the return of Bunny to one very happy little boy. It’s unanimous. We would all like to return to this property. Thanks Hong for the hospitality.

Beautiful get-a-away!

Really enjoyed our weekend away. We were there June 15-17, the cottage itself is huge so many bedrooms and spacious for such a big group. The lake is super quite, really spent a lot of time on the lake peddle boating vs. Canoeing, but cottage had both options which was great. I was shocked that the lake was warm enough to swim already. Would totally recommend this property.

Lovely, spacious cottage with great views of lake.

We had a great stay at this cottage. The hosts were very accommodating and the cottage was very spacious. It was a perfect weekend cottage with much to do (trampolining, paddle boating, canoeing, swimming in the lake, marshmallow roasting, etc). I recommend it to anyone! Thanks again, Hong!

Pleasant holiday

My family enjoyed our stay at this cottage on Clam Lake, a beautiful small lake near Kearney Ontario. The cottage was spacious and comfortable with a large deck overlooking the lake. The second night we were there a thunderstorm took out the power and we were very thankful that a back-up generator came on to restore power to most of the cottage. A paddle boat and a canoe were provided that were well used to explore the lake.

Nice property, lots of room and very peaceful.

Very beautiful scenery and lovely rental home. I will definitely be back, lots to do for the kids, they enjoyed the boating, we brought a floating island and the kids enjoyed be outside most of the time. Lots of games to play inside for "rain" or overcast days. The children enjoyed using the trampoline, and going for walks. Cute little town near by and very friendly people.

The Perfect Getaway

Cottage by the lake was the perfect getaway for my family and executive team. Spacious, modern, comfy, and right in front of the lake. The cottage came equipped with all the necessities and amenities a city dweller would need to feel at home, plus a few extras like two canoes, paddle boats and more. Host was gracious and always available. Highly recommend!
