This cottage is a nice, relaxing vaccation only 1 hour away from Toronto. However, the place is not exactly as advertised. That is the reason for the 3-3.5 star rating. Pros: -Backyard : great for kids and pets! The big backyard had a small slope or two but largely flat around the huge camp fire. -Amenities : big fridge, lots of pots and pans, bidets, lots of utensils, and a cozy living room area on main floor. Marks deducted for having dull big knives, no dishwasher tabs for the dishwasher, and the coffee machine worked but also leaked water. -Bunk beds: good in terms matress hardness, came with warm blankets, and pillows. You can fit your travel cribs in the rooms with you but it will be a slight tight fit. Fyi, the bathroom downstairs is shared - jack and jill style. We didnt attempt to sleep two people on a bunk. Cons: -The public "beach" : the photos of it are deceiving. It's a boat launch area, not a beach. There is no sand to place your beach towel on. Merely the gravel/dirt pathway that vehicles would use to get to the water. It is also not a two minute walk. MAYBE five if you jog. Going to take far longer if you attempt to bring the kayaks. The kayaks were stored in a wooden structure on wheels and you are expected to push it from the backyard to the boat launch area. We didnt even attempt it as we noticed the previous users left water in the kayak and the structure looked heavy and cumbersome. -House water: it is well water so bring enough water to drink and brus

We stayed here for a few nights in August, and the kids had a great time. The property was clean and charming as pictured. We had a great time around the gas fire pit our first night and built our own fire with the fire pit our second night. The property has a huge yard for kids to play. The only downside is it is not waterfront. Theres a small canoe/kayak launching area a short walk away and we had to go out to buy extra paper towels and toilet paper. Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and the kids had a lot of fun.

No communication with the owner the whole time. Tried contacting them as I was struggling checking in and checking out, but no response. There were already stinky pizza slices in garbage bin. I cleaned the whole house before leaving and made a video even but still she made false allegations. She called my friends(18 +) , all “kids” lol

The house is clean and well-equipped. The appliances were new. Communication with the host was very good, she was responsive with our concerns. It was an easy process for both check-in and out. Would be a good place to stay also in the summer as they have a bonfire pit and kayaks that you could use. It's also situated in front of the lake.

Had a great stay. The cottage is modern but very cozy. Tidy, bright, big deck, lots of room inside was perfect for our group of 5. Property owner was great to communicate with also. Would recommend.
