Why Tina chose Ontario
We've loved this log cottage for years and when the owners decided to sell their much loved summer home, we were blessed to buy it for our children. It's still a few years away before they will use it, so we are renting it out so that it will still be enjoyed. One year, we spent Christmas day there as an ongoing tradition and we can't imagine a more perfect setting. What a treat! A wonderful family occasion with a roaring fire, board games, laughs and hot chocolate!
What makes this cottage unique
Nature at her best, white majestic pines, clean lake/river, privacy yet not far from town, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, peace & quiet, marshmallow roast, BBQ, history, museum, art gallery, hiking trails, good & inexpensive golf. And we could go on!

Great Cabin
Great time in the cabin. The place is perfect fpr relaxing, reading, and fishing.
5 stars are simply not enough!
I would like to let Tina and everyone know, that we had an amazing time at her place. Everything we could think of, was provided by Tina. Our experience was perfect. We enjoyed Canoeing and Kayaking using her Equipment.
The Interior decoration was flawless. The inside had a very warm atmosphere and felt just like home.
We encountered no issues with anything.
Thank you very much Tina for your amazing place and we really wish to have met you in person.
We definitely will be coming back.

Blown Away By This Place!
Honestly where do I start! If you're debating whether this place is for you or not, please take my advice and just choose here. Lot/Property, large and beautiful. Cottage, pristine and awe inspiring. Hosts, went above and beyond at every possible opportunity. Cost was right on point. Great value, best money I've ever spent on something like this. They accommodated 8 of us guys with extra mattresses and sheets, made sure there were lawn chairs for all of us, and thought of every possible thing that you might need during your stay and had it there ready for you. Were gracious even when we broke a dish by accident. Great place, honest/great people, you won't regret a thing. Have a fantastic stay!
Beautiful and comfortable cottage
We had a great time. Cottage had everything you would need. Inside gas fireplace was super cozy and nice for the rainy day we had. Kayak and canoe were available which was nice to explore around the little islands nearby. Property has beautiful views to take in while sipping on morning coffee. Highly recommended!
beautiful log cottage and property exceeded our expectations
My wife and I, who are both in our early 60s, rented this cottage from September 17 to the 24 2016. The cottage and property were marvelous. The master bedroom bed was extremely comfortable and the comforter was great. Fishing from the dock was quite good. I landed 4 decent small-mouth bass (catch and released), and a couple smaller ones and a few blue gills. I did not catch any pike or pickerel from the dock but understand such are possible out in the lake. The cottage has great internet ad the flat screen TV has Nets Flicks for evening viewing. It is only a few KMs from the tow of Mattawa, yet feels very secluded.
I ended up with a nail in my tire on Sunday and the guy at Crevier gas fixed it for a very reasonable price on a Sunday. Small town niceness for sure. We had a pickerel dinner at the Valois restaurant and it was absolutely awesome. A bit too much food for 60 year old folk, but the filets were delicious.
The rocks and concrete work around the cottage and in particular around the BBQ area are beautiful.
We will definitely be back and I have already provided a link to someone where I work p[art time as he indicated him ad his wife were very interested.
Fabulous Family Vacation Spot
This property and its owners both exceeded my expectations. The location is very private and although there are other homes nearby, it still feels secluded.
I was looking for an affordable cottage that had a "Muskoka" feel to it, with a safe beach for children, that could accommodate additional family members as needed, remote...yet close to town amenities, with rustic features but also incorporating modern creature comforts such as Internet and Netflix for those rainy days. This property delivered all of the above, and then some.
On arrival there was a basket of goodies that was well thought out and much appreciated. Both the cottage and the sleep cabin were cleaned to a high standard and it was obvious that a lot of thought has gone in to making sure that guests would feel welcome and comfortable. The beds and bedding couldn't have been better, and were a welcome surprise after what I've experienced at other rental properties.
The owners were quickly responsive to all requests when any issue came up. I've already recommended this cottage to friends and won't hesitate to mention it to anyone else I know who may be looking for a spot to spend a quality summer vacation.
