We had a great stay, place was clean, well stocked, everything worked perfectly. Beautiful views of the lake, very private, didn't see another soul aside from those on the water. Amazing price for being so close to Toronto.

Had a nice relaxing time at this cottage with my family. Close to the lake and had a beautiful view from the back. Catch some fish from the lake and was very happy.
Thanks

Had a wonderful time at Stephen’s cottage for Canada Day weekend! We had everything we needed and more for a great stay. The dock was great to sit and fish off of during the day and the views off the deck were incredible. Swimming by the dock is fine too as long as you’re careful on the rocks. The pull out couch in the living room was broken but we had brought an air mattress so it wasn’t a problem and there is another pull out couch downstairs that works.

This cottage was even better than the pictures, it was spacious and clean. Stephen even called beforehand to ensure we had the right directions. Lots of board games and cooking supplies available. We really enjoyed our weekend getaway.

At first I want to mention that for a question sent about 5 months ago the owner replied only two days before.
The house rules were not displayed (sitting under the reviews notebook), and were not clear regarding the garbage placings.
We had to spend our own Gigabytes (more than 30GB) for the use of TV and entertaining programs. Their staff of CDs were very old and not updated at all.
There was not a coffee machine and we had to go 15 km away to get to Tim Hortons everyday.
And the last one is that Stephen, on the day we left called me several time and kept harassing me for non existent problems, like garbage placing (just to let you know, we separated garbage regularly, but didn't sent them to a box that we didn't understand at the handwriting rules that were not clear as I mentioned above) and making up some stories that cannot happen in one or two hours after we left, like racoons (they didn't mess any of the organic we left for three days outside, but well locked in the box, so how it happened in the daylight in only two hours?).
Definitely Stephen, the owner is a bad host!

Property at the end of a narrow right of way (watch out rounding the final very steep curve into the parking area). A navigation system will not lead you there. You need directions from the owner. The location is pleasing once you find and access the place. Fantastic view, very quiet. You can swim or kayak from the dock. The kitchen is well equipped, comfortable bed and nice linens. No wifi, but an extensive DVD collection and many board games. Did not view lower level.

The property is located on the water and the view was beautiful. It is an older cottage but there has been some renovations and updates. The place was clean and there was plenty of space for 6 people. If the owners continue to make improvements throughout and created some flat spaces on the outside to have a sitting area or play areas it would be great. The price was excellent, I would definitely stay again.

We had a lovely stay. Even though the weather wasn’t the best, there was lots to keep us entertained inside. Very peaceful. Watching the storms roll on over the lake was beautiful!

Stephen is the perfect host. Went above and beyond. Always prompt with communications.
The place is beautiful inside and out. Tons of space. So relaxing. Perfect for a quiet getaway. It had everything you could possibly need as far as the kitchen goes. Beds were comfy. Worth every penny. Will go back as soon as possible and will highly recommend to friends and family, and anyone who is reading this. You won’t be disappointed.

This is a fantastic, spacious place to stay! Our family of eight adults comfortably stayed here for four nights. The cottage is well equipped with all the comforts of home. We enjoyed glorious views of the lake through the many big windows, and off of the bug free balcony! The concrete dock below offered a place to fish from and paddle from. This property on Sturgeon Lake is situated on a dead end street, so it is very quiet and peaceful. We loved this private little oasis and hope to return again in the future!

I did not go because I had to reschedule my stay and didn’t get back money as yet and not in full refund as it was not my fault. Still waiting for my refund. I have to rebook and pay again. Hopefully I get back my money.

We recently enjoyed a really good stay at this vacation rental property. A key highlight of our trip was the fishing off the dock, which we found to be fantastic. Although the fish were mostly small, they bit consistently, which added a fun element to our stay.
As for the swimming, it was satisfactory, but future guests should take note that it's quite rocky and lacks sandy areas. Water shoes are definitely recommended for a more comfortable experience!
The only issue that we encountered was a slight musty smell in the basement. However, this didn't significantly impact our short stay of 3 nights. Despite this minor issue, we found the property to be very enjoyable and it certainly exceeded our expectations given the price.
All things considered, we would recommend this property to anyone seeking an affordable getaway with some exciting fishing opportunities. While it may not be perfect, the value it provides is unquestionable. If you're looking for an exciting and comfortable vacation, this property is a great choice!

This property is very spacious with great views. It was wonderfully quiet and private. We were looking for a weekend of rest and relaxation, and that is what we got. And many photos of the beautiful sunsets. We may come back again with friends!

Such a nice place if you want to get a short break from your busy life. The place is so peaceful and serene. A complete rest from your hectic schedule.
Stephen’s cottage is big and beautiful ! Clean and very much complete with all the amenities.
Please do not expect wi-fi, after all you’re supposed to stay in a cottage, get some rest and relax, right? Once in a while, we need to “disconnect” and take a break from our corporate environment, even for only a few days.
Stephen also went out of his way advising us to be careful with the slippery stairs since it was raining when we arrived.
Stephen’s place is right in front of the beautiful lake. And the best gift is the gorgeous sunset !
The environment is so fresh, clean and mesmerizing… I even fell asleep on the balcony while waiting for the wonderful sunset.
I highly recommend Stephen’s place for families and friends who want to spend some time together.
We wish you the best of everything, Stephen.
We had a great time.
Thank you so much!

Stephen's cottage was very lovely and is a fantastic stay, Stephen was very helpful before our arrival with letting us know the correct directions to arrive at the cottage as google maps gave us the wrong info. The cottage itself was very nice l, clean, quiet and wonderful to be at with a beautiful lake view to enjoy the scenery and tons of board games as well as DVD collections to help pass the time by. Only concern is that there is no wifi on the property but had good cell reception to be able to still have service if required. Would highly recommend to anyone looking
