Wonderful Couple of Nights Away
My husband and I stayed for 2 nights over this past weekend. Joy's Chalet provided everything we hoped to get from our time away. It's an hour or so from downtown Ottawa, We got to bring our doggo which was wonderful! Communication with the host was 10/10. Chalet was as described. Check in a breeze. Beds were comfortable, lots of spare blankets and pillows. Chalet was perfectly clean. Everything worked as expected, no issues with anything in the kitchen and the hot tub was in perfect working order. Lots of hot water. TV and WIFI worked perfectly. The only thing I will mention to look out for is outside, needs a bit of maintenance on the steps at the lower deck. We almost took a tumble a couple of times on loose stairs. And bring bug spray! The host had this listed in the description and they were not kidding.

Amazing hidden gem
I really wasn’t going to write a review because this was such an amazing hidden gem that I just want to keep it to myself haha my husband and I came here for our wedding anniversary with our pup and when I tell you we were ready to stay forever I mean it. It was perfect and had everything you”d hope for in such a location. The property was clean and welcoming. The host was very nice and easy to work with. The view is so relaxing, we spent most of our vacation outside by the fire and just admiring the view. My husband and I will most definitely be back.

Perfect getaway
My wife and I booked this property to get away from the city and enjoy a relaxing fall getaway. Joy's Chalet was perfect for what we were looking for. The chalet was clean and well set-up, the property is gorgeous and secluded. We would absolutely visit again.

Nice quiet place - well equipped
The cottage was nicely equipped and we enjoyed paddling through the tunnel into the larger lake and hiking at Foret Bowman (although finding the entrance wasn't easy so download maps before you go). The host was very responsive

Exactly as described
The cottage was great and the amenities were exactly as described. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. As warned the lake/dock was weedy so we opted to go swimming with our 19month toddler at the boat launch that was a 2 minute drive down the road. If you go with a toddler, I would bring two baby gates to help deal with the big stair case and the patio which has a drop as shown in the photos.

Nice Spot !
Joy's cabin was a perfect place for a winter getaway with friends. Big enough for 2 couples and pets for a period of time with excellent amenities. It really was excellent to find a place this nice that allows pets and I was happy to have the equipment available to do a mid stay clean as well. For a group staying as long as we did it in winter it became a bit pricey buying bundled wood from the local corner stores and deps, much of which was poor quality softwood that didn't give much heat or last long in the stove. It would be nice if perhaps Harsh considered buying in a couple cords per winter and charged a fee to his guests for use beyond a certain minimum - but that's a small complaint. All in all it was a lovely place to stay, just far enough out of the way to truly relax, quiet and surrounded by woods and lakes. We would definitely go back!

A joyful vacation at Joy's Chalet
Joy's Chalet is a beautiful cottage with cozy decoration and well equipped kitchen. It also has good outdoor seatings and facilities (hot tub, fireplace, etc). The chalet is nicely located in front of a hill and sheltered by trees, so it remained naturally cool and comfortable even on hot summer days. The view of Baie d'Albert is amazing, and it is possible to see a partial sunrise from the bed. Baie d'Albert is calm and quiet, perfect for some relaxing water activities. When we want to explore more, the fun and large Recevoir d'Escalier is just a tunnel away. The host is amazing and thoughtful... they installed washer and dryer for us because we stayed long. We highly recommend this cottage for a family vacation!

Nice Cottage
Enjoyed a 4 night stay here. Property is located at the end of a back bay. The bay itself was weedy, good for easy fishing but not so great for swimming. Paddled thru the culvert to get to the other side of the reservoir and did some swimming there. Good size kitchen and eating area, nice setup outside including the hot tub. Beds were very comfortable and we all were able to get a good nights sleep. Overall had a great stay, no real complaints.
