Tom was an excellent host. If there was anything we needed he attended to that as quickly as possible. The property was very clean and the beds were super comfortable. The location right across from the beach was perfect. A great spot to sit with your morning coffee and stare out onto the water. OutOur dog loved laying in the sun on the deck. A perfect spot for any size family!

Great location at the end of public beach and a short walk to city center. We got everything we needed for a few restful days while travelling. Very comfortable bed! We especially appreciated the fenced area for our dogs who also enjoyed their time in Gimli. Thank you, Cheryl and Tom! We hope to be back!

We booked this rental for a girls weekend to celebrate my birthday. Everything was exactly as described and exceeded our expectations. The cabin is beautiful and was very clean upon arrival. It was so nice and spacious and such a bonus that we all got our own rooms. Amazing location, it was lovely watching the sunrise on the lake right from the back deck. Tom was great with communication and there were zero issues with our stay. We will be back for sure.

Our first time ever booking a vacation with Vrbo and we were not at all disappointed. The cottage was exactly as described.Communication with Tom was great. Being rookies at this he gave excellent instruction on how to access the property.The cottage itself was excellent. Appeared to have been fairly recently updated and was very clean.Certainly larger than we needed but we loved having so much space. It felt like a home away from home.Although still frozen, the views of the lake from the deck, and even inside the cottage, were awesome!The proximity to the beach walkway was fantastic! Our pupper absolutely loved his daily walks along the beach and around town.
