Less private then we anticipated, but great time. Nice docks chairs, decks to hang out. Kayaks were great. paddle boat wasn't working to the disappointment of some of our group. Bicycles were nice to have as well.

Very nice location that’s suitable for families or friends! The canoes and kayaks were an excellent addition, and exploring the lake was a fun way to spend the days we were there.

We had a great time at this property. The outdoor space is exceptional - plenty of space for large groups and the swing set and flat lawn was perfect for young kids. We enjoyed fishing, canoeing, biking and hanging by the 2 docks and gazebo. Unfortunately the paddle boat was broken but Richard was prompt to assess the issue and order replacement parts. Indoors, we found the kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms clean. The beds, pillows and linens were comfortable. One of the sofa beds do not pull out but this wasn't an issue for us as the couches were comfortable. Overall we enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning next year.

Getting information about the facility, directions and checking through Vbro was frustrating and unduly complicated by their security issues. When finally able to communicate with the host, things improved and he was very helpful. Property itself was as advertised; house was well equipped and very comfortable. Amenities such as the barbecues, lawn furniture, and watercraft were plentiful and readily available. The grounds were extensive, well maintained and in our estimation, the best feature. The view out on the lake was beautiful and the calling of the loons was awesome. The only real disappointment was that the lake had a mucky bottom and was totally congested with weeds, making swimming almost impossible, especially for small children. Otherwise, our holiday was very enjoyable.

We had a wonderful time! The property, cottage, and host were all great.

Great place to get away and unwind. Great location and close enough to Fenelon Falls and Lyndsay for shopping. Beautiful waterfront and enough trees for shade. Enough room to sleep 9 adventures seniors.

This cottage was all that we expected and a bit more. The listing is very accurate. The owner was quick to respond to our texts when we had questions. We were a group of 7 adults and 3 children (4 generations) and it met all of our needs. We would love to return.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful and exactly how it shows in the pictures. The property was well maintained and was extremely clean when we arrived. The host was fantastic and cared to any question or concern that i had prior to our stay and for the whole weekend he were there incase I needed him. Overall 10/10 stay and we look forward to going back in the future!

We had a fantastic stay at Richard's property. The cottage was well-stocked with essentials and we had a very comfortable stay. The cottage itself is cozy, but the real showstopper is the backyard. There's a covered electric firepit, as well as an unconvered firepit by the water. There are kayaks, canoes and a paddle boat available for use. The dock is a great place to watch the sunset as well. Will definitely return! The karaoke machine was a personal highlight!

Great host and a cozy little cottage for a family getaway.

Two families with adult kids shared the cottage over Thanksgiving weekend. We enjoyed it immensely. The cottage was close to hiking trails and trail riding by horseback . The kayaks, bicycles and firepit were well used. The host responded to questions quickly. Highly recommend.

Cottage was very nice and well appointed The property is fantastic , great for kids

The property was wonderful. Lots of room inside with 5 bedrooms. Park, bikes, canoe, kayaks, paddleboat....perfect. Only downside was we did not swim in the lake as it was extremely swampy. Beach iwith a great Park in Fenlon Falls about 20 min drive away.

We had an amazing time with our extended family here. Fits 10 easily. We had plenty of non motorized water sports to use. Lots of outdoor space, two gazebos, two fire pits outside and a huge long dock to enjoy the view. Owner was very responsive and helpful throughout the booking.

My family and friends just stayed for one week at the property and had a fun time. Lots of outdoor flat space to play sports or just sit on the dock and read. The kayak and canoe were great. Many night time campfires with s’mores were enjoyed. Good bbq. The lake is very shallow with weeds, so, sadly not conducive to swimming but we had lots of fun on the boats and fishing. The owner was very helpful and accessible to answer any questions we had. Our only constructive feedback would be to consider getting a dishwasher machine and a larger dining table as it could only sit 6 comfortably. Overall it was a lovely summer retreat.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage has a lot of great amenities to offer. Our kids really enjoy the playground. I will recommend this place to anyone in a heart beat. And will look forward in booking this place again in the future. The only one small recommendation which is not a big deal is to include carpets in the washroom so the floor doesn’t get wet after a shower.

The property is huge and we all loved the large back deck with the gazebo. More than enough chairs to accommodate our family of 8. Didn't use the propane fire pot on the deck as there was no propane. Loved having 2 fridges. We brought lawn darts & bocce ball & played daily. Our 3 adult sons & ladies made daily use of the canoe & kayaks but unfortunately the paddle boat was broken. Saw lots of geese, 3 baby raccoons, a huge turtle & befriended & fed 2 chipmunks who ate peanuts from our hands. The living room area is cramped but still worked for us. The kitchen needs a thorough cleaning; the exhaust fan and cupboards & walls around stove are quite greasy. Also there was some mold in one bathroom. The double sized beds were too firm. Also, washcloths & top sheets for the beds are not provided, and we never found a milk container for our bagged milk. Richard responded quickly to our emails when we had questions. I would recommend his property. It was peaceful to just sit out & chill.

Me and my friends really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Richard was very prompt in communication and flexible in accomodating our requests. The property is very good, clean and comfortable. We didnt get to enjoy the outdoors due to weather so we plan to go back in summer. Thanks Richard.

Everything was perfect! Richard, the host was our favourite. He is attentive and hospitable. The cottage is fully equipped especially the kitchen. We occupied 4 bedrooms, out of five. The beds, pillows and linens were all fresh and clean. All of us had comfortable sleep. The bathrooms are updated and very clean. We enjoyed a night by the fire pit and enjoyed the big backyard area facing the lake. We would definitely come back another time in the future and would highly recommend this place to friends. We didn’t have any complaints or issues. Richard was just a phone call away when we had questions and he answered promptly. Two thumbs up for this fabulous cottage!

The cottage was nice. The backyard is lovely and well appointed. The newly enlarged deck and extra gazebos were a bonus for our group of eight. Richard was very prompt with any questions or concerns.

It is lovely place and good size. Great fishing from the docks for the kids.

The cottage was nice. The beds were amazing. The backyard is lovely. The kitchen would definitely benefit from a deep cleaning….it is superficially clean but the exhaust fan and back splash/window area are kind of grimy. The lake is extremely sea-weedy! We had no plans to swim so it didn’t matter but it was an interesting experience to see. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciated the dealing with such a helpful and pleasant owner.

Excellent cottage get a away with family and nice fire pit in the evenings. Good beach close by. The children had lots of fun. Very relaxing week for everyone and fishing was good.

Pros: - clean - beautiful clean linen，comfortable beds - 5bd rm，2.5bth rm， nice for 10pp - new extended patio and gazavo - well maintained lawn and property - kayaks, canoe and paddle boat all works well, lawn toys are available (we did not used) - onsite laundry, two refrigerators and one big freezer - very friendly host Cons: - 1. One shower is much nice than the other, we end up having almost everyone using the same shower 2. Total square footage is small. Only one common area. Hard to find a quite spot indoor. 3. Stove is fine but oven is not. If you dont plan to bake, you are fine. 4. biggest drawback, no sandy beach, lots of weed in this lake and during our stay in early July. Do have a playset for younger ones. Overall, still a very nice place for getaway.

From the booking to staying was a pleasant experience. The owner was very friendly and explained everything in detail once we arrived. Cottage had everything you need and you just need to bring food. Location is great and was relaxing to stay here. Plenty of space as well. This was our first time booking a cottage and was a great experience. We loved it and will book again next time.

Great host, lovely home, very comfy beds. We had a few little kids which enjoyed the playground equipment and the very small hill in the back yard (good enough for kids to sled down). No dishwasher (I assumed there would be - but there isn't) & wished there was a bit more room in the kitchen cabinets to put some of our stuff away. Not a deal-breaker however. Thank you for letting us use your place.

Richard's cottage offered a great spot for our family to relax and enjoy a winter escape from the city. The kitchen was fully equipped, and the beds were really comfortable. We especially enjoyed the fireplace in the living room! I would definitely recommend this place for families looking for a comfortable, cozy, and relaxing vacation.

Great place for a group, very nice big backyard

My wife and I stayed with our baby along with our friends who also have a baby. Great as rooms were located on opposite ends of the cottage for good privacy. There is a large backyard to walk around and enjoy along with paddle boat/canoe. Also can play backyard games like bocci ball provided. Internet was good, no issues. Owner was responsive throughout stay as needed. Overall had a great time and enjoyed this location. Great sunsets - One of the nights sunset was incredible fiery red. Great place!

If you are looking for a getaway from the city, this is the place for you! We stayed here aug 31- sept 3. Easy checkin, plenty of space, 3 washrooms. The cottage has everything we needed from board games to Netflix and all the kitchen utensils. The sunsets are beautiful. Breathtaking.

Richard was thorough with check-in process and showed us where everything was. The cottage was clean, slept 10 people comfortably, and had plates/utensils/pots and pans. We brought our own cooking oil and water. WiFi and data can be spotty but expected for cottage country (not that we used it much anyway). My only wish was that the lake wasn’t so weedy so we could swim, but we enjoyed our stay overall. Thank you!

I was at Richard's home with my children and grandchildren and it was a great getaway. We had plenty of room to accommodate 7 adults, 1 toddler and 2 infants. Thank you.
