Loved every minute of our stay. Located in beautiful and quiet area, right by the lake. House had everything we needed. We enjoyed the screened in porch, spent our mornings and evenings relaxing outside. The kids had fun going for bike rides and playing at the beach. Would love to stay here again!

We loved our stayThe home was larger than it appears on the photographs and was pristine. And it had everything you might need… kitchen perfectly stocked, screened porch was lovely, beds were very comfortable. It even had chairs to take to the beach. Perfect place to enjoy Winnipeg beach, the piers and Gimli. Lovely quiet neighbourhood with easy walking distance to many beaches ..

Quiet and very family friendly

This was the most enjoyable and relaxing week we have had with our two young kids in a long time. The cabin had everything we needed and was within walking distance to the beach which we really enjoyed. We are already talking about returning next summer!

VRBO Vacay

The property was fantastic, had all the amenities as advertised. We did have a few questions for the property manager and the people answered within minutes. The location is in close proximity to Winnipeg Beach and Gimili. We really enjoyed the Sunroom and screened Gazebo. As we were there at the hottest part of the summer, we did miss having air conditioning. We would to this location.

Great cottage and quiet area!

Very relaxing! Lots of room to spread out, inside and outside. Screened porch / gazebo was well-used. Kitchen and bathroom are well-equipped. No a/c but there is afternoon shade which keeps the inside at a nice temperature. A tall stand up fan is provided for more comfort. Lots of outlets for electronics and very good wifi. Nice walking area and the beach is just a couple of blocks away.

A great get away from the city

My husband and I took our 2 and 3 year old kids to this property for a safe get away from the city. The house was in good shape, clean, well cared for and well stocked with anything I forgot while trying to wrangle my 2 kids and way too much stuff out the door. We all slept comfortably and the internet connection was great. The lake was a 5 min (by adult legs, 15 by slow-poke toddler legs) and was a great place to go tobogganing for the first time. We were already talking about staying again in spring or fall. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

We want to move in!

Our stay at the all-season cottage exceeded all expectations. I have stayed in my fair share of "cottages," but nothing compared to the comfort and convenience of this special place. The layout provided a spacious and refreshing environment, especially with the plentiful large windows looking out to the trees. The insulation and airtight windows helped keep the cottage cool, and I bet it helps keep the warmth in the winter. I would consider moving in, except I barely tolerate the mild winters in Missouri. :) One of the highlights was the screened-in porch, which quickly became my favorite spot. It provided a delightful sanctuary, shielding me from pesky bugs while allowing me to enjoy the captivating sight of rabbits and butterflies along with the sweet melodies of chirping birds. In fact, a pair of Eastern Kingbirds built a nest for their babies, and it was delightful to watch the mama diligently protect the nest and keep watch. The cottage was fully stocked with essentials, such as cookware, bedding, and towels. The blackout curtains provided a peaceful sleep and a fresh start each day. While the beach is only a short walk away, I was not well enough to travel the few blocks on foot. No matter. The serene yard offered me the natural space I needed to help recover from a chronic illness. Overall, the cottage was a delightful haven. . I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a perfect getaway amidst nature's beauty with the lake a stone's throw away.
