Our time at this rustic cabin was wonderful. The host's communication was perfect and the description was almost spot on.
This cottage provided us the opportunity to relax, read, swim and spend time with each other.
The weather was amazing so we were outside almost all day every day. The beach is great, we did a couple of paddles on the kayaks and the boys did some fishing (little perch).
The cottage is very private and the lake is serene and quiet enough to hear the loon.
The boys loved the zip line and the view was amazing. Thank you to our host for sharing your little gem.

Me and two friends went for some fishing and relaxation. Great little spot. Shallow water off the dock so we caught lots of jumbo perch. Cleanliness was excellent and we forgot our bluetooth speakers at home so it was a nice surprise that one was provided. Nice to have a row boat with the rental as well. Host was very responsive and friendly.

Stay was wonderful! View of the lake from cottage was amazing. Cottage right on the water. Close to our favourite restaurant the Wilno Tavern. Close to charming little parks and beaches and hiking trails. Only stayed for 2 nights and wished we booked longer. Went in October. Only minor thing was the sofa was very uncomfortable to sit on and watch tv. Tom followed up with us which I thought was great. Thanks Tom.

We should have stayed a bit longer, Tom's cottage is perfect to calm down and relax after a long and intensive sightseeing road trip through USA and Canada.
No motor boats on the lake, the next busy road quite far away - best place to relax.
We liked also on evenings to make BBQ with the gas grill and the camp fire in the fire pit .
I hope there is a next time to get there.

Awesome cabin in the woods, lake access was easy and close, tons of nearby trails and close to barrys bay for everything you might need, including a nice cafe.

This cabin is absolutely beautiful! The property is well maintained and steps away from the lake. We were there for 4 days and seen 3 boaters. Amazing pizza from Vito’s pizzeria!

Easy communication with Tom, lovely little cabin which was more than enough for us and the dogs.
It was too cold to swim but sitting at the lake and listening to the loons was peaceful and lovely.

The cottage has everything one needs. Important feature was stable WiFi, since I had to work for two days. No issues with supporting all-day conference calls. The rest - pure joy! Extremely quiet in late October, great get-away from the city. Looking forward to coming back!

If you are searching for a peaceful lake to relax, swim, enjoy natural surroundings, look no further than Tom’s cottage. Serran Lake is small and ‘motorless’ - the odd canoe, paddle board and loon is what you will see. With only a dozen or so cottages on the lake (spaced well apart for privacy) there is very little noise pollution. Our children are in their 20s and they loved floating around the lake suntanning and chilling at the clear beach area. The cottage, elevated on the property, is indeed rustic and cozy, with everything you will need, including a nice shower. Spaces were incredibly clean, bbq is excellent, air conditioning appreciated, fire pit is wonderfully perched on a hill with a view of the lake. The cottage is a narrow design and does not allow for much furniture - there is one couch and ample card table type dining chairs. We did bring fold up Cabela’s ‘director chairs’ which were very handy for a comfortable seating option with side tables….something to consider. We had great weather, so we weren’t inside much. Our small dog was happy all week watching red squirrels run up trees. Lots of room on property to manoeuvre a small trailer we use to haul water toys and all. We simply had a wonderful week, very peaceful, serene setting.

Tom's cottage is ideally located on a quiet road. The lake is peaceful. We enjoyed campfires and fishing, and even caught a bass we were able to eat for supper.

Our stay was absolutely beautiful. The cottage is in such perfect condition and was the cleanest cottage we have ever stayed at! Inside and out. Tom has everything you can think of, even wifi for the kids when dark falls.
Tom's hospitality was over and beyond accommodating. He responds promptly to concerns and makes sure all your needs are properly met.
The lake is stunning, we didn't catch much fish but the time spent together at this beautiful rustic cottage was exactly what we all needed!!
Thanks again for everything Tom. We will defiently be back!!

We are so grateful to have found this property! It was a perfect getaway nestled in the pine trees with a constant view of the lake, and a short drive from town. The cottage was impeccably clean and very cozy, especially with the use of the wood stove. Tom was very communicative and clear about all necessary arrangements, and we will defiantly be back in the future!

This little cottage is the perfect getaway from everyday life. It's nestled in a beautiful area and has a very nice view of the private lake. The fall colours were starting during our stay and it was very quiet and serene. The cottage itself was spotless upon arrival and Tom checked in to make sure that we were all settled in. Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice getaway!

We had a wonderful stay! The property is stunning. The cottage is cozy and super clean, no musty smell like other cottages we have rented. Tom and his wife are very friendly and helpful. The kids loved the zip line, fishing, bon fires and s’mores. It was a very relaxing stay. Tom and his wife take care of every detail. We have never stayed a cottage so we’ll equipped. Thank you for a great stay, we look forward to booking again for next summer.
