Absolutely stunning property, with so many amenities!! We were really impressed with the fully stocked kitchen that had everything we needed from serving trays to a waffle maker! Fabulous location so close to the lake and right on the river. Host communicates excellently, we will be staying here again!

Beautiful property for our family Christmas. Only giving 4 stars because the oven only has one, very hot temperature (500 f.), so we ended up using the greasy air fryer.

This is an absolutely incredible place to stay. There's everything that you could need that makes this place feel like your home away from home. The property is absolutely immaculate, the games room is so much fun, the wood burning sauna was just what we needed, the covered area over looking the river is a perfect addition and every inch of this place feels like it holds a little bit of the earths magic. The house is very clean and well put together. Not to mention fuzzy blankets on all couches, chairs and beds, which is a must for me. The host is very helpful and extremely kind. I will be coming back.

This was such a wonderful weekend, the house and property are gorgeous and we had everything we needed! So cozy, and we were so happy to find all the supplies on hand to keep the fireplace, sauna and fire pit burning! One bit of feedback - some lights along the path from the house down to the sauna and gazebo would have been great! But the flashlights in the house were very useful instead.

Stunning getaway

Very impressive property with numerous amenities. Highlight for me the outdoor kitchen next to the stream .. (something I thought you only saw on cooking programs with Jamie Oliver) and sauna and games area. It is place where you shop for what you need and stay on the property for duration of the trip. I did go to Timmie’s in the morning and we went out once to a restaurant, it’s about 10 mins by car. Definitely a place I recommend and would consider visiting again.

Amazing place

This property exceeded all of our expectations. It was absolutely beautiful, spacious, and really fancy, but it was so comfortable too. The architecture, the views, the amenities, the sauna, the games room, the furniture, how well stocked it was. It was all around just awesome. Billy was an incredible host, great communication and was very kind. We'll definitely come back. I highly recommend this rental!

Great place by the river

My partner and I visited with some friends for a nice weekend get away. The house and grounds are very nice, and even though it was quite snowy we were warm and comfortable in the house with the fireplace going.The view of the river and the gazebo are great, but it was a little too cold for that so we enjoyed the sauna instead.Billy is a great host, made sure to stock us up with firewood for the weekend, and was overall great to deal with.Everyone agreed we would go back again when it's warm enough to jump in the river before hitting the sauna.

Girls weekend in the woods

We had a fabulous weekend in the woods. Billy was the most attentive and communicative host I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. The kitchen was a dream and incredibly well stocked. The property is spacious and beautiful. Our only complaint is that our time was too short and we couldn’t make use of it all! We are hoping to come back.

10 of us just spent 5 days at this beautiful property. A 3 generation get away. There was something for everyone. Quiet places to sit and read or gaze at nature. A safe space for the children to run around, games provided for indoor and out door use. Pool table indoors. Separate games room where teenagers could also hangout. We all loved the covered gazebo over looking the river. We built a roaring fire and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows that the children loved. The host had all the fires ready stacked with wood for us.One of my favourite places was to sit on the comfortable high chair sipping wine at the wooden bench over looking the river. A new “happy place” for me.Host was very attentive and responded quickly to any questions asked. One should not hold back on reaching out to him. We prepared family meals in the well stocked kitchen. The oven works perfectly.It’s a magical place that the host has created with loving care, with special attention to quality details.We all hope to make it back again soon. I highly recommend it. We are so lucky we found it and had the opportunity to create wonderful memoirs there. Don’t hesitate to make memories for yourself.

Wonderful Family Getaway!!!

We were looking for a property to host our larger group of two mature families, and this property more than exceeded...actually let me rephrase that...it just blew away our expectations! The pictures really don't do it justice. The house is warm and inviting from the moment you enter, with a large kitchen, fully equipped to prepare and cook meals for a large group. But the highlight of the property (for us) is what's going on in the massive "back yard;" the expansive deck, the ponds, the "gamesroom" building, the gazebo (complete with a raised firepit, picnic table, and "bar" overlooking the river), the hammock, wonderfully crafted adirondack chairs everywhere you'd want to sit, and that (peaceful, tranquil) river access!!! Just WOW. Thank you so much Billy, for sharing your piece of paradise with us!
