Great mini-get-away

Cottage was nice and close to lake. It was convenient to only be steps away between the cottage and lake! The lake had a good bottom - not weedy or mushy. It can get a bit rough when stormy weather approaches so we tied our boat between the dock and a tree so it would not crash against dock. Fishing was OK too. We enjoyed touring the lake to see all the different cottages and architectural details. Owner was very helpful and ensured we had everything we needed for our stay.

Amazing and relaxing getaway at excellent family cottage!

We had such a great time staying at this beautifully renovated cottage! As first time guests, host Elia took incredible care of us, preparing us with a phone chat prior to our stay, and being available for our every need. The cottage was better than advertised, was extremely clean upon arrival and provided everything needed for our stay. The swimming was great (bring water shoes as we were advised) and the fire pit was ready to go as well. Our children had so much fun swimming, playing in the spacious backyard space, and fishing off the dock. The privacy of the hedges in the backyard was great, and the neighbours were extremely friendly and welcoming too. The icing on the cake was the goodies Elia left for our kids upon our arrival! It was such a thoughtful gift and made the experience that much more memorable for the family. I would highly recommend this cottage for a fun family getaway and we are excited to return and stay even longer next time. Thank you Elia for everything, we can’t wait to come back!! 10/10!
