Beautiful cottage, well equipped. Wonderful lake front and roomy cottage. Would definitely return. Unfortunately the A/C failed halfway through the week and we spent two afternoons dealing with repairmen that could not fix the issue.

My daughter and I had a lovely time at this lakefront property. Weather was perfect for this time of year (last week of Sept.) which allowed for outdoor activities or just relaxing on the deck overlooking the water and watching the ducks and swans. The home was furnished with whatever we required, especially the kitchen. Overall, the neighbourhood was quiet and the property well-maintained. We would definitely stay here again!

Upon arriving and stepping into the cottage, we were awed by the view out the large bay window. Balsalm Lake, serene and welcoming was just steps away. The cottage was clean and cozy for us but would be perfectly outfitted for a large family with the extra family room. The cottage owner was helpful with immediate communication when needed. We loved swimming in the clean lake water or relaxing on the large deck. We certainly appreciated the time to relax and recharge at this awesome property.

Cottage was nice and had everything we needed. We did have an issue with the neighbours big dogs pooping on our yard multiple times and left for us to pick up. The neighbours were very noisy on the weekend to the point we had to go inside for some noise relief. View was amazing and water was clean with easy access.

Comfortable, cozy indoors with all the amenities and an amazing lakefront location. Balsam Lake was perfect for kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, or just relaxing on a floater or the gorgeous and spacious new deck, this cottage was perfect for our 2-week getaway (5 adults over 45). Price was great for an ideal location!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, it was very relaxing and peaceful. The kids loved swimming off the dock, we used the canoe and kayak daily. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of room inside the cottage for 6 of us. Would stay here again! Unrelated to the cottage itself, but a tip for future renters: the garbage dump near Fenelon Falls already had a 30min wait at 9:15 am on the Saturday we were leaving (opens at 9:00am). So be prepared to possibly wait or just bring your garbage home for disposal.

We enjoyed the stay very much and was shocked at how well stocked it was. We could have brought less stuff but we will know for next time. The owner was very good at fast responses to any questions. Would highly recommend this cottage to anyone.

This home has a large window facing the lake and that is what makes it. The back deck is also an added asset. The neighbours were welcoming and friendly.

We enjoyed our week at the cottage! The cottage was well equipped with lots of room and very comfortable. The lake was warm enough for swimming and the sandpit beside the lake was a huge hit with our grandchildren. The large bay window looking out at the lake made for a very relaxed start to the day. While the cottage is very close to the neighbours on both sides the privacy wall on the deck made the cottage feel secluded. All in all a great time was had by all.

The cottage has some much room that everyone had their own space. The 3 bedrooms were good size and the 2 bathrooms were perfect. The cottage is steps away from the water and the sandy walk in was nice to have. Being in the cove was really nice on windy days. I would rent again for sure.

We had a wonderful week with our son, his wife and our grandson. Cottage had plenty of room and was stocked with everything we need. My son has a boat and it was great to have the dock right out front and the fishing was excellent! Situated in the bay the water was so calm, nice quiet peaceful location.

A well laid out cottage for families. A level lot close to the water, large deck and great size dock for enjoying a view of the lake. Enjoyed our stay!

We had a lovely trip to the lake at this cottage! Our two young kids had a ball playing in the sand pit and in the water via the steps down into the lake! The cottage had everything we needed and more, ample space for the family to relax in. The property was well cared for and the cottage itself was clean and well maintained. We will definitely be back and recommend to friends! Thanks so much for the terrific stay!

Had a great vacation, everything you may need is at the cottage . The neighbours are very close but very friendly. There is not much of a sandy beach and then the weeds begin but great swimming off the dock.

Jun 2019

More than enough room for 7 (4 adults and 3 kids). Great communication with property owners and a very easy check in process. The only thing is the water is a little weedy so it makes it a little difficult to swim with small children, but that's really nitpicking. All in all, a great stay and we would book again.

Fun was had by all!Loved the outdoor space - great deck and just steps to the lake. Water was warm and clean.Great for small children with easy access to the shallow and sandy waterfront.

Friendly neighbours tooShort drive to stores and other amenities.Thanks to the owners for answering any of our questions.Overall we had an excellent time and look forward to booking again.

My family had a great time at this cottage. We were there in July. There was a sand pit for the kids to play in, a step down into shallow, clear water and diving off the dock for the adults. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. It is a short drive into Fenelon Falls for shopping and a farmers market down the street. The owner was quick to respond to all our questions. I would recommend this location to families with children.

Excellent vacation property. Enjoyed all aspects of the cottage. Our only negative was it was a little tight with 12 people re 1 washroom. It was clean and fresh when we arrived. Our younger grandchildren enjoyed the sandpit and its closeness to the water. Location was great. The older kids liked swimming and the water sports. Great selection of kids sand toys. Thanks for a wonderful week.
