Family weekend on the lake

Good location for a weekend of family trout fishing. If you have an average sized boat the driveway is quite tight to navigate and only just enough room for vehicle and trailer to still shut the gate. Once in feels very private :)

Picture perfect

The bach is basic, but comfortable. This place is really all about location, great big grassy area where the kids could play, outdoor bean bags were well used. It’s right on the road, but not as noisy as expected and is well fenced meaning we didn’t need to worry about the kids. Friendly neighbours and a very responsive property manager. We really enjoyed our stay.

Peaceful setting

Water pressure wasn’t good. Barbecue could have been cleaner and not all the elements worked. Really lovely setting and so relaxing. Really enjoyed our stay so serene
