It was the perfect getaway for the family. The amenities the property provided were fantastic. The personal touches made us feel welcomed as soon as we open the door. We enjoyed using the kayaks and the property itself was beautiful and well maintained. Communication with our host, Shadow, was easy and simple. We would definitely stay there again.

Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the property overall. I apologize for any confusion regarding the dock — it is present on the property, but depending on the season or water levels. As you know , this spring is cold so we delayed the dock launch date for the warmer weather instead. We appreciate your comments and hope to host you again in the future!

Amazing Cottage and Stay
Our family stayed at Joyce's cottage, a gorgeous modern newly renovated house. Everything was exactly as described and communication with the owner was 100%. They were very quick to respond with any questions I had. The property is really large - perfect for a family with a dog. The area and lake are super quiet. If you're looking to get away and isolate for a bit, I highly recommend this property. Thank you for everything, including the snacks :)

Short family getaway.
We were a group of 5 adults and two children. We wanted a lakeside experience and we got it in spades from the location, the accommodation, the firepit and kayaks and paddle boat . The weather even cooperated. The owner quickly responded to questions and requests. The pictures are an accurate presentation of the listing. Overall a fantastic experience thanks to the owner.

Joyce cottage is easily accessible with good parking and proximity to Napanee!We found the listing is accurate in regard to the photos of her cottage, but the Sunshine cottage was a little close then we expected despite that being listed in her rental description! All in all, we thought there would be more separation from the Sunshine then what we experienced!The waterfront was accurately described however it was really weedy and not swimmable from our point of view!
