Thanks to our great hosts Cindy and Will! We had a great time at the cottage. The water was beautiful and the various kayaks, paddleboards, canoes and boats going by was exactly the up north environment we love. The cottage is very well equipped and the beds were comfortable.

Amazing!

The hosts were absolutely amazing. The place comes equipped with everything you could possibly need. A perfect spot to sit out on the deck, have a fire and a great swim! Look forward to staying again!

Wonderful hosts. Very well designed/equipped/maintained small cottage in a rather densely built up area. NE exposure. Pet friendly. Nice size dock is in the narrow passage with regular boat traffic. Most boats go slowly/quietly minimizing wake. Gorgeous Whitestone Lake views with miles of space for boating/kayaking/fishing.
Docks are across the lake, boats go in between.
Moon over water in the fall.
Autumn dawn on the dock.

Relaxing and very enjoyable!

This property has everything we needed to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable for my husband and I, our adult daughter, our teenage son and his friends. Right on the lake, we swam, canoed, used the kayaks, fished and sat around the fire almost every night. It’s also a bonus that it’s pet-friendly!!! Our pup LOVED it! The nights were so quiet and the stars were amazing too! Perfect week away from the noise of the GTA.

Beautiful location and getaway

My husband and I booked the cottage for a 3 night getaway. The place wash beautiful and clean. Exactly like the photos. We were greeted with a welcome basket and card by the hosts. The view and location was breathtaking. The beds very comfortable. We spent our days on the lake and the evenings by the fire. Highly recommend the cottage and was a pleasure dealing with Will our host.

Friends Cottage Getaway

We had a fantastic stay at Cindy and Will’s cottage! From the moment we booked, they were quick to answer all our questions—even before we arrived—which made planning so much easier.The cottage itself was spotless, well-stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. We spent our days swimming in the lake and our nights playing games on the deck under the stars. The lake access is excellent, especially if you're bringing a boat—it made getting out on the water super convenient.We truly couldn’t have asked for a better spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. Highly recommend, and we’d love to come back!

Thank you so much, Lisa, for your kind and generous review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that you and your group had such a fantastic stay at our cottage and were able to enjoy the lake, the deck, and the peaceful setting. From your first message to your last, you were a pleasure to communicate with, and we truly appreciated how smoothly everything went. You left the cottage in perfect shape—clean, tidy, and cared for—and we couldn’t have asked for better guests. We’d be more than happy to host you again anytime, and we highly recommend you to other hosts as well. Looking forward to welcoming you back in the future!

Family of adults getaway

To start, the communication we had with owners Will and Cindy was excellent. Their cottage is on a channel-like area of Whitestone Lake. Any boats or Jet Skis had to slow down in this area, so it was relatively quiet. The decks, stairs and dock are all quite new and well built for accessibility. Inside, the cottage is bright, clean and comfortable.There are ceiling fans in the Queen bedroom and living area. The bunky has a nice sleeping area on the main floor as well as a low ceiling sleeping area up a sturdy ladder. Overall, our family enjoyed our 5 day vacation!

Margot and her family were the perfect guests! Communication with Margot was excellent - very timely, and very responsive. They were absolutely respectful of our cottage and the neighbours we share the lake with. They left the cottage in excellent condition, very clean and very tidy. We would be more than happy to host Margot and her family again!

Great cottage, very clean

My wife, son, and I spent the week and had a great time! The cottage has been recently renovated and is very nice. Will was very easy to connect with and responded quickly. Overall, we would highly recommend.
