We were looking for a nice place to head up north for thanksgiving weekend… the location was great, cute lake, beautiful and very clean well maintained cottage with all the cooking supplies we needed to make meals and bake a cake! Lots of nice options close by if you want to treat yourself for a night out in town. The hosts were very accommodating for early check ins, late check outs, make sure we were comfortable etc. highly recommended!!

Pros: - location location location! (cottage is right on a quiet & beautiful lake). Pictures are accurate. - well stocked & decorated (very cozy). If you forget to bring something, chances are, you can find it inside the cottage (kitchen items, bug spray etc.) - check-in instructions are clear & everything was easy to find - kayaks, paddleboat, canoe & life jackets available for use - BBQ for use Cons: - No recycling bin on site, which is not disclosed in the listing. We had to bring our recycling home, which was inconvenient. I've booked cottages before and this is the first place I've stayed where there was no recycling bin & you cannot dispose of recyclables in the garbage (or risk a fine). The lack of recycling bin was not communicated in the listing. It felt like a slap in the face when we were checked out and driving away and saw many of the neighbours with their full recycling bins out & ready for collection while we had our recyclables with us in our car. I get that different municipalities have different recycling rules but should consider offering renters a recycling bin if the municipality collects recyclables. - Not the most pet friendly. We had to pay the dog fee ($75) for our 4lb 4month old kitten. - There was a constant damp smell in the cottage during our 5 day stay. Granted, it is an older cottage situated close to a lake so that's sort of expected I suppose.

Absolutely delighted with our stay at this charming cottage! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the place was just as picturesque as it appeared online. Every corner of the cottage exuded coziness, and it truly felt like a home away from home. What truly stood out was how well-stocked the cottage was. It's as if the hosts had a checklist of everything you could ever need for a comfortable stay, and they nailed it. From kitchen essentials to cozy blankets and even those little extra touches that make a difference, they've got it all covered. And let's talk about location – perfection. Just a short 10-minute drive to a quaint little town that had everything we could possibly need. It's nice to know that grabbing that last-minute item wasn't a hassle at all. But the highlight of our stay? Without a doubt, it was the water. We practically lived by the water's edge. Our wildlife encounters were like something out of a dream – loons gliding gracefully, kingfishers darting by, hawks soaring above, ducks making a splash, falcons commanding the sky, water snakes slithering, Canadian geese in their signature formation, fish darting beneath the surface, and to top it off – an otter, just before we left. We reluctantly packed our bags to leave, but there's good news – we're already counting down the days until next year's getaway. This cottage has given us memories to treasure, and we're already itching to create more. Until then, thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Thanks for a great stay - perfectly located for our needs

Loved the place, it was exactly like we pictured it to be, lots of plates and cutlery and cooking tools ready to go! It was super conveniently located, went to Sandy Beach not far away, and the kids jumped in off the dock a few times. It was awesome to take the boats out and do a little fishing! Honestly, a really fun and relaxing few days just a short ways away. Thank you so much, Charmaine!! We'll be back next year!!

Quiet lake, lovely cottage and dock, with access to kayaks, canoes and paddle boat. Close to town for groceries. Exactly what we wanted for our relaxing week away.

Cottage is situated in a good location with lakefront view. Really nice place for fishing and water sports with couple towns close by to venture to. Overall experience was great including communication with our host Charmaine.
