We were in town for the Canadian Ski Marathon and had everything we needed in this beautiful cottage. It was very comfortable, bright, and spacious, and included many thoughtful details. The host was a delight to communicate with, which made the experience easy from start to finish.

Great cottage!

Great spot to get away from the city and relax. The cottage is spacious, clean, and well maintained, with beautiful views of the lake from inside and out. It had everything we needed, and Dominic was very friendly and quick to provide all the information required for a extremely comfortable weeklong stay. There are also a couple of towns super close by, so quite convenient for stocking up on food and drink. Would definitely come back here again!

Beautiful, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The kids had the time of their lives swimming and catching frogs, and the raised deck provided the perfect spot for the adults to watch them and enjoy the view. Dominic was very friendly, helpful and quick to reply to our questions. We will 100% be returning to this beautiful spot in the future!

Life is better on the lake

We booked this location for the third leg of our trip because it was central to so many things for us to explore, and we ended up doing none of what we had planned because it was just so peaceful. The pictures didn’t do the property justice and the view was just extraordinary. Thank you, Dominic. I hope that we will be back someday when the weather is warmer and with the rest of our kids.

The Best So Far!

This was definitely our favourite place we have rented on VRBO so far. Amazing property, location and host. Dominic answered every message right away, incredible communication! One thing that was a nice touch that I really liked is the attention to detail. All the lights switches were labelled with the corresponding lights. That made that super handy! The property is gorgeous, along with the cottage. The photos almost don’t do it justice, we were blown away! We are most definitely going to come back next year!! Thanks for a wonderful time Dominic!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour au chalet en hiver pour fêter Noël! Les espaces extérieurs sont vraiment agréables : le spot à feu, le lac pour patiner et la colline sur le terrain pour glisser ont rendu l’expérience magique. Les décorations de Noël ajoutaient une ambiance chaleureuse et le chalet est extrêmement confortable. Un endroit parfait pour décrocher!!!C’est certain que nous reviendrons!

Belle maison avec un beau lac. La route est à peine audible de l’intérieur, et peu importe quand vous êtes au bord du lac pour observer la faune : tortues, oies, grenouilles, huards et muscrats.

Quelle belle semaine de vacances!

Chalet chaleureux et très bien aménagé. Superbe lac avec accès à l’eau facile. Accessoires disponibles (kayak, paddle board…) nombreux et en très bon état. Superbes couchers de soleil. Proprio disponible avec communications et instructions très claires. Proximité au chemin est le seul point moins favorable si jeunes enfants.
