We had a great time at the cottage. There was plenty of rooms for everyone to spread out. You did not feel crammed in at all - enough bedrooms for everyone, a great basement area with pool table and air hockey - great getaway for the teens. The cottage was exactly as pictured / described in the listing. The host, Eugenia, was amazing to work with - very responsive and helpful. We would definitely book this cottage again.

Beautiful cottage very large.and spacious! Good for two families. Beautiful lake view and great water amenities. However the cleaner need to focus on cleaning under the beds and removing thick spider webs from windows(inside and out ) ceilings, bedrooms, doors, and chairs.

The cottage was perfect for my 4 adult kids, their spouses and 1 toddler. Everyone could spread out and not be ontop of one another. We loved the water toys, sandy beach and easy access to the water was a huge bonus. I’d like to suggest adding the fact that there was a crib set up for use. We dismantled ours and brought it up but didn’t need to. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils and cookware. Would rent again in a heartbeat. Loved our week.

There was lots of space for our party of 12. Great location could walk to town and amazing waterfront with lots of kayaks and water toys. Host was very quick to respond to any questions we had.

Our family had a super week on Long Lake. Cottage is better than described.

Was a great area to cottage. Very few bugs, campfire area , sandy beach for small children to enter water. Lots of water activities, games for indoor. Comfortable beds and lots of bathrooms. Lots of room to spread out the family.

This is a great cottage for a big family! Lots of comfortable beds and full bathrooms. Nice location on Long Lake with sandy shoreline. Easy walking distance into Bala for food, LCBO, a latte at Oliver's or baked goods from Don's Bakery. Host is exceptionally accommodating and responsive - thank you for a wonderful family cottage vacation!

The lakefront is excellent. Lots of boats, loungers, seating and shallow entry into clear lake! A lot of bedrooms and bathrooms in the basement and new addition compensate for the dated kitchen and main floor. Refrigerator and kitchen cabinets need a major update - as does main floor seating/couches/cleanliness. Thankfully great weather so minimal time spent indoors! Pool table and Air Hockey a great way to kill time! Property owner very responsive and made the process stress free with plenty of information and quick responses.

There is a lot to like about this property. The cottage consists of 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms that are spread out which allows families to not feel as though you are on top of one another. If you want to step away for some alone time, there was space to do so inside and outside. The main living space, Kitchen and dining room table are large enough for everyone to feel comfortable, which is nice if the weather is not the greatest, add in the spacious lower level which has an air hockey table and small pool table, and you should be able to have a great time. For those that enjoy television, that option is available as well, however I cannot comment on whether the satellite channels work as we only used it so the kids could watch netflix childrens shows. Outside, which is probably why you would want to go was fantastic. The main cottage is higher up and thus has a very nice view of the lake. The walk down to the dock and water is grassy which makes it nice for some lawn games, although there is a decent slope for most of the lawn. What we found amazing for our group was 1) the walkout beach on both sides of the dock, which is rare for cottages in this area. This allowed our baby and 3 year old to enjoy the water as everyone else did. and 2) the watercraft. The cottage is stocked with a number of different watercraft (SUP, Canoe, Kayaks, Paddleboat) for all members of the family to enjoy. Also, not sure if it was due to a hotter month, or if the lake is secretly shallow (you would never know by looking), but the water was unbelievably warm compared to what I have experienced with Muskoka lakes. Not that it was a bother for us, but if you are looking for privacy, then keep in mind that the neighbouring cottages and more noticeably the neighbouring docks are very close. Due to the location of the cottage, this is normal and should not be a surprise for anyone. Location is also fantastic as its a short 2-5 min drive into Bala, or a 25 min walk in case you needed to get more groceries/drinks. The Cottage itself is a little on the dated side and could use a little TLC in some areas, plus some attention to detail with respect cleaning, but that may just be a personal preference. Nothing that should stop you from considering this for a family vacation. All in all, a great place to spend a week away from normal city life.

Overall we had a fanatasic stay. Short walk from Bala Falls. Great lake with lots of water toys. What more can you ask for?

We had a great time with our family of 15. Great location, close to town, everything you need just a short drive away. The tap water is municipal and drinkable which is amazing. Enough bedrooms and washrooms to accommodate everyone. Mots if water toys. The kitchen could use some improvement and updating. Overall a great experience. Would come back next year.

Great Lake front setting with a modern yet with a rustic cottage feel. There weed eight of us my two adult children and my three grand children we had a GREAT time and would go back again. I would have no problem recommending it to family and friends. 😋

This unassuming cottage from the outside, was a delightful surprise inside: Clean, very spacious, and fully equipped with a homey ambience. We enjoyed the waterfront area and had access to lots of leisure equipment. The owner was very helpful and accommodating. Great for a large family and only a kilometre from downtown Bala which was a bonus!!
