Located approximately 1.5 hours from Toronto, this cottage is the perfect place for families and friends to escape the hustle and bustle, relax and unwind.
The space
Spectacular views. Nothing beats a morning coffee on the dock while the lake is still calm or a night around the campfire looking up are the stars.

2 kayaks (life jackets provided).
Cottage stocked with: linens, bath towels, cleaning supplies, garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels, glassware, mugs, tableware, pots/pan, utensils, coffee, sugar, salt/pepper and a few other cooking/kitchen necessities. The kitchen is designed for light cooking only.

The cottage was very clean modern right on the lake. We were able to relax and enjoy our time. Will definitely come back next year!
4.0 / 5.0
The cottage is amazing and very clean . We went away for a relaxing time and it definitely was that .
The only thing that was quite disappointing was the dock that we were so looking forward to was on the lawn and not in the water . Overall though it was a very good spot .
5.0 / 5.0
Great little spot, looked like it was recently renovated, all the appliances were new and the owners had left a little welcome basket that was a pleasant surprise.
