We came up for the tulip festival and wanted to experience the city of Ottawa but wanted to be away from city life for down time. This house was perfect for exactly that. With great proximity to Ottawa it was easy in and out. Once you arrive to the house it seems a world away. We did not here any sounds and rested well inside. The boat house area was wonderful. A visit to Old Chelsea is a must, with quaint shops and excellent food choices! Thank you for sharing this home with us.

The house is beautiful, very clean and well provisioned. We very much enjoyed our stay. The only downside was that there are about 40 stairs from the parking area to the front door, which was a bit tricky for my bad back and my daughter’s sore hip. So you should be in decent physical health for that. Otherwise it was a fabulous getaway, very relaxing.

Such a beautiful place. The house is much bigger than you would expect looking at the photos. The boat house house with the balcony by the lake is wonderful, we want to go back during fall to enjoy the view of the lake even more.

This property and the location exceeded our expectations. The property had everything we needed(kitchen supplies,bedding,etc.). The boathouse waterfront was perfect for relaxation, kayaking the lake, enjoying nature and enjoying meals outdoors. Would definitely return and highly recommend!!

The property was very spacious and well maintained. Lots of extras including kitchen supplies and board games. Unfortunately, forest fire smoke limited outside activities.

This was an amazing stay. Much better in person as the pictures don’t do it justice. Nancy does a fantastic job of thinking of the little extras to make your stay feel like home. If I could have given 6 stars, I would have. This lake is pristine and quiet. Best over the water patio and screened in porch on the lake with all the things you would need to stay there all day if you wanted. Stayed 5 nights in June and would definitely stay there again.

This is a perfect lake retreat and a wonderful host. The home has everything that you need, and is immaculately clean but also very comfortable to relax, make a fire, put your feet up. Lots of different living spaces for everyone to have their little spot to relax. The only note for people who have limited mobility are the stairs to access the home are not suitable for anyone who isn't fully mobile. I would stay here again without a moment's hesitation.
