We enjoyed our 3rd stay for a week this time. It is a fabulous location and spacious home. It would be nice to have air conditioning but thankfully a few evenings cooled down because of late evening rain.

Nice lake house directly across from a quiet beach. Stayed with our family of five plus the in-laws. Nice amenities and had everything we needed.

This was our second stay here, and everything was perfect. Able to accommodate our whole family. Owner was very helpful and friendly. Just a perfect week right in front of the beach for easy access. So close to beach, easy to walk back and forth to house for any needs. Highly recommend for some down time, and just relaxing.

We have nothing but good to say about our stay at this property in Sylvan Lake. It was everything as shown in the photos. Checking in was flawless and we were thrilled with all the amenities. We would love to return to this piece of paradise.

We stayed over Christmas and New Years. The owner had the cottage decorated (professionally?). It was beautiful. We had ample wood for roaring fires daily as the temps were well below 30 C most days. If it had been nicer we would have taken advantage of the outside activities such as skating and ice fishing. I cooked Christmas dinner and had everything I needed in the kitchen. I would LOVE to go back and do a summer vacation stay as the beach is right out front. Tammy was incredible to deal with and answered any and all questions quickly. Loved this stay.

What an amazing view! Sylvan Lake is so beautiful and this property is in a perfect place to enjoy the beach, water and sunsets. The water is so clear and shallow so we didn’t have to worry about our children. We also love that the bottom is sandy. We had 3 generations of family there and everyone found something fun to do. It helped that the weather was incredible. The hosts have thought of everything! We had lots of room to visit and play games. There is a huge dining table where we enjoyed family meals together and at the end of the day we fell into our very comfy beds and all slept beautifully. We especially love that our pets could come and enjoy this with us! We would definitely recommend this property and look forward to coming back!

This property was fantastic in terms of location and space. Great dining room and living area and the basement and bedrooms were roomy and spacious. It was right across from a small beach with unobstructed views of the lake, so sitting out on the front porch at night with the fire going was amazing. The only thing that would have made it better was that the showers were a little strange, sometimes hardly any water would come out and it was hard to get the temperature right. The bathrooms were also very dated and old, and definitely in need of a renovation. It was hot while we were there, and there was no AC, but there was a good breeze from the lake and lots of fans. The outdoor furniture looking out onto the lake is VERY hard to sit on, and even extra cushions from inside couldn't save how uncomfortable it was. Such a shame because its the best part of the property, they need a great comfy sectional out there. A note on the master bedroom--we had our toddler daughter staying with us in the room and there was a very high window that had a little blind but still made the room very bright when we put her down to sleep. Usually we bring our own black out curtains when we travel to block out as much light as possible, but we couldn't even reach this window to make the room totally dark. Communication with the host was fantastic, they were always on hand and answered any questions, plus let us check in early. Lots of towels and blankets. There was sand everywhere on the floor and I did wonder if they had been washed, but sand might be inevitable when it is so close to the beach. I also loved that they allowed dogs, as so few places in Sylvan seem to, so this was a great bonus. I would recommend to anyone looking for a bigger house in Sylvan Lake to stay here, as it had tons of space, great location and a well appointed kitchen.

The house is lovely, beautifully decorated….very well stocked! Lots of room especially with the basement suite. The location is perfect with the beach right across a quiet road! We would definitely stay at Tammy’s house again!

We sought a well-appointed, spacious and convenient vacation spot, close to a large body of water, suitable for children, and this place easily accommodated our needs. Aaccess to the beach across the street was perfect, and the shallow, sandy waters enabled the youngsters to play happily all day with minimal supervision. Sunsets were spectacular fresh m the deck. The barbecue was relatively new with plenty of fuel. The wood fireplace and outdoor fire pit were a splendid touch, stocked with excellent dry firewood. The independent basement suite worked very well for the couple with a young toddler, and the additional fridge was a great for a large group. Overall we had a wonderful time and will be back.

The house is in an excellent location right across the road from the beach. It’s an excellent spot for small children as the water is very shallow. Close 5 minute drive to restaurants and other attractions.

This is our second year staying here for five nights and we had a blast. Already booked for next year.

Perfect for enjoying lake time!

This is a terrific home for a getaway at the lake. Front porch view of the lake and beautiful sunsets. Lots of space for gathering in the home and room to have your personal space, too. A great place to have a home away from home. Beach area is lovely and water is shallow for a long way out into the lake. Walking distance to Lakeshore Drive and lots of amenities nearby. Owner plans to install air conditioning which will make future stays even more comfortable. A little pricey, but we would love to go back. Owner responded very quickly to texts and emails - much appreciated.

Property was ideal location immediately across from the beach. House was quite unclean unfortunately, white dog hair all over, sand and dirt and poplar fluff. Counters sticky and just generally really needed a vaccum and scrub. Front door and deck covered in webs and dead bugs. Barbecue and back deck covered in the same. We had to a lot of cleaning and that just didn’t make sense. Also downside is there is no AC making it quite hot and stuffy.

It was nice

Easy and good communication

The property was well maintained and views from the deck were very nice. Close to the lake and on a quiet street. Plenty of room for everyone in our family and comfortable sleeping arrangements.

We enjoyed our visit

Such an amazing place to make memories with family and friends. And the sunset from the deck can’t be beat!

This was our second time staying at Tammys place in Sylvan lake. Both times were equally amazing. The house is clean, comfy and beautiful. Has everything you could possibly need. The beach is right across the street with the perfect amount of shallow water for the kids to enjoy. I absolutely love this house and would come back again! Tammy is also great to communicate with.

We very much enjoyed staying at the house at Jarvis Bay! The view of the lake is stunning and access to the beach is just across the street. Easy for carrying the paddleboard and chairs to sit and enjoy! We have already booked for 2021 as we wanted to make sure we could stay again! My entire family LOVES it! That says it all!!

I really enjoyed my stay at Tammy‘s clean, comfy home. I appreciate the fact that Tammy uses organic cleaning products as I am vary sensitive to the strong smells of chemicals. It was very bright, spacious, and had relaxing beach vibes. It was really nice having the beach access right across the street and a clear view of the beautiful sunsets at night from the deck which I thoroughly enjoyed and it was spectacular.

Right across from the beach! Place was amazing! What a wonderful place to spend my 65th Birthday with my family during the 2020 coronavirus! We had 6 adults and 4 children. Plenty of room for everyone! Tammy and her sister Louise are the most amazing and accommodating hosts! Had a fabulous time with many memories!

Tammy's home truly is a home away from home. It has everything that we needed with the beach access steps away. Where I can be on the deck while the kids play at the lake. She is very pleasant to talk to and helpful. The unobstructed view of the lake is perfect and the sunset never failed, it was spectacular. The home was sparkling clean. We would definitely stay again, this is my favorite place to stay.
