Superb family friendly cottage. Amazing place for young kids to have fun and safe distance away from open water so you didn’t have to worry. Not all the items from the “park area” picture was there like the structure as well as an updated swing but it was a baby swing, our family is coming out of that stage... But overall a wonderful stay and very relaxing.

The house was perfect and the lake absolutely beautiful. We would have enjoyed cleaner and better cooking appliances . Some of the pans were pretty old and unhealthy (scratched teflon). The oil and spices a little old. We would have benefit from having bedsheets as half of our family came from switzerland. I think for the price, it would be nice to have all of it there. Other than this, i would definitely recommend the place :-)

Beautiful lakeside retreat

We had a great week at Patterson Lake. The cottage is spacious and well-equipped. The kayaks and paddle boards made it easy to enjoy the lake. Loved the tree-house-like setting in the woods. Great fire pit and indoor games as well. Highly recommend.

Great stay. Patterson lake is great for swimming and has very little boat traffic. The cottage has two bathrooms and comfortable mattresses. Upstairs you will find everything you need. The internet and TV worked really well. We enjoyed the BBQ and deck at night. It was very hot but all the fans worked well. We had a lovely day in Perth which is 35 minutes away. We would definitely recommend this cottage!

Glenn’s Lanark Highlands property exceeded all our expectations. Weeks before our arrival, Glenn provided a thorough list of details about the property, including the best local grocery stores, nearby recreation activities, and other helpful tips, he truly left nothing out. His thoughtful communication and attention to our needs ensured our stay would be fantastic.The property itself is perfectly secluded in a beautiful wooded area overlooking a serene lake. We enjoyed paddle boards, a canoe, pool table, ping pong, a fire pit, a grill, and that spectacular lake view, it was impossible to get bored. Pet friendly and clean. The combination of amenities and peaceful surroundings made for an unforgettable, much-needed family time.The nearby town residents were warm and welcoming, adding to the charm of our stay. Glenn was an exceptional host, and both the property and amenities were truly unbeatable. This is easily one of the best places we’ve stayed in years. Five stars hardly does it justice. We’d give it a perfect 10 out of 10!

Summer Vacation

Our stay at the cottage was perfect and just what we needed to relax as a family. The cottage had all the amenities that we needed, we spent the majority of our time enjoying the beautiful lake by jumping off the dock, swimming and using the canoe and 2 SUP boards provided. There was lots of wood and paper available for bonfires everynight and cooking was easy with the bbq and dishwasher. Thank you for renting your cottage and we would return again.
