Every year there are improvements and the cabin is perfect for our family. My husband uses a walker and a wheelchair now and it's perfect for him except the step up at the back door but that even proved to be easy. You couldn't ask for a nicer place and all the neighbors are nice.

The Blue Jay

We totally enjoyed our stay at The Blue Jay at Canadohta Lake. It was spotless when we arrived and we felt very welcome. It was our 3rd year in a row staying there and never fails to impress us. From the morning breakfast to the evening campfire every day we loved our stay at The Blue Jay.

Nice House Near The Lake

We enjoyed our stay at the blue jay for a long weekend. The boat dock was a quick 5 minute drive and our dog loved swimming there every day. We enjoyed making dinner at the house and night caps on the front porch. A great getaway!

We had a great weekend. The cottage is clean. We had plenty of yard space for the dogs and the neighbors are friendly. We got to go for a boat ride on the lake and watch Steeler football at the Frog Pond. Shopping is convenient. Loved nights by the fire pits.

It’s a little confusing to find but every neighbor up here are very friendly and helpful. This was my first time back in canadohta in 30 yrs. I can’t believe how much I missed it! I promise you, I will not be waiting another 30 to revisit. Brandan was very attentive and helpful. You won’t be disappointed! We walked down to the pavilion by the lake (just a short walk) sat for a few hours playing board games.. that were provided by the rental. My son n his girlfriend took the paddle boat around the lake! Trust me when I say… this place is a keeper! You’ll thank me later!!
