Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Chris Macaulay
I have lived in this area since 1993. My wife and I raised our 3 children on Lake William and to this day they still say that the summers spent with family on Lake William was the best time of their lives. Mine too. Hearing from our guests on how they too made amazing family memories at our property is incredibly satisfying. We have made great friendships in the process and hope to make many more.
Why they chose this property
The Waverley Cottage (also known as Pine Point), is a well known peninsula/point of land jutting into Lake William. I've always admired the property, with it's majestic pine trees and amazing water views, so when it was finally listed on the market I knew I had to not only purchase the property, but to also share it with others to enjoy.
What makes this property unique
The property offers mesmerizing views from all sides. It's like an island joined to the mainland with a short causeway. Total privacy for families to make life lasting memories.
