Amazing host and beautiful home

We had an amazing experience at this property. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described in the listing. Actually, the photos don't do the justification, specifically the bedrooms, with very clean sheets. The location was perfect—close to Algonquin East Gate, a few restaurants, a grocery store, and the LCBO in case you needed them. The area is still quiet and peaceful, much needed for our busy lives. We will definitely book this property if we plan to visit the park in future.

Just a Perfect Property!!

My family of four, including our teenage boys (16/14) spent the Victoria Day Weekend at Effie's and EVERYTHING was top-notch. We were looking for a relaxing weekend in Cottage country where he had plenty of space and plenty of amenities. This cottage had it all. Spotless, comfortable, designed with family comfort in mind. Communicating with Effie was immediate, she had an answer for everything. It was a cold rainy weekend, but the hot tub was awesome, we made use of both the indoor fireplace and outdoor fire pit. Beautiful dock. My wife ripped through a book in the netted gazebo in front of the gas fire. She could have been there all weekend. The rooms were spacious, the kitchen and den were wonderful. We had everything we needed. We will return!!

Beautiful cottage

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this lake access cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with how clean, cozy, and well-maintained everything was. The cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The lake access was fantastic for water activities! The views from balcony were unbeatable. Inside, the cottage was well-stocked with everything we could possibly need, just to bring your own beddings. Overall, this was one of the best stays we’ve had, and we would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful lakefront getaway. We can't wait to come back!
