The cottage is lovely; very clean and well supplied (kitchen equipment, towels; pretty much everything you'd need). Bow Lake is lovely and the public beach is just a very short walk. The little market near the dam is quaint and has good food and, of course, be sure to enjoy the ice cream at Johnson's. We'll be going back every summer!

Nice bungalow

This bungalow has an interesting location. Once you arrive, you realize the lake is only a very short walk away. The bungalow itself was clean, and tidy.

Excellent stay, the house and property are beautiful

Laurie was an amazing host, she went above and beyond for us. The house was beyond my expectations. Beautiful, clean. My only complaint is I wish we could have stayed longer!

A wonderful spot! Will return often

This was a spotlessly clean, lovely cottage near a beach, and definitely just what we needed! Laurie was very accessible, and helpful, and we were able to follow her notes on how everything worked. Enjoyed our peaceful stay, especially since I'm a caregiver to my husband and my two grandsons, and needed some time away, just the two of us. Can't recommend it enough!

Bow Lake stay

This "cottage" (really more of a house) and the owner truly deserve 5 stars in every category. The house was very clean and well stocked (kitchen equipment, sheets, towels, even bottled water). I've been to Bow Lake MANY times and it is lovely. The small (but never crowded) public beach is a very short walk from the house. The owner was easy to contact if I had a question and accommodated a couple of changes I requested. I have nothing but glowing reviews regarding our stay at this lovely property!

This was my 3rd year staying at this cottage and every year has been terrific. To call it a cottage doesn't really give it enough credit; it's more like a house. The location is great, the house is very well equipped, the kitchen has pretty much everything guests would need, and the owner - Laurie - is very nice and easy to contact. I'll be renting here for many summers to come!Martha

You know it's a great spot when you don't want to leave! My family of three stayed here for four nights and we will definitely be back. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the kitchen was huge and well stocked and the living room was spacious and again, so comfortable.We ate at the dining table and on the deck, I went for walks each morning around the lake and the beach was a favorite of my 4 y/o. It really was a perfect spot for us.
