Plenty of space for our curling team, and would also work well for families or two couples. Great Lake view, and pretty quiet in the surrounding neighbourhood, although our stay was in early March when there wasn’t any activity on the lake.House was well stocked with everything you would need to cook meals, bathrooms well stocked as well. Projection tv’s were a treat, especially the tv room on the lower level. Would definitely book again.Grocery store, liquor store and pharmacy only a 5 minute drive away if you need anything.
Beautiful, clean and family functional. Hosts were great. Highly recommend!

Jamie and their group was a great guests — clean, respectful, and followed all house rules. Communication was smooth, and they left the space in excellent condition. We’d be happy to host them again anytime.
This was such a wonderful property! The home was beautifully renovated, and plenty of room for my family! The views were amazing, sitting out on the deck overlooking the lake was so nice. The communication was fantastic, prompt, simple directions made it a breeze to check in and check out. We absolutely loved our stay here and will no doubt be back next summer.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so glad our place was the perfect spot for your family get-together after the wedding. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the space, the kitchen, and the lake. We wish you’d had more time too—hopefully next visit!
Beautiful home and property. Very spacious and well decorated! The beautiful table set for us in the dining room was a wonderful surprise! The toys for the kids next to the cinema room were also greatly appreciated. My favourite part, though, was the view and the tranquility in the morning, drinking my morning coffee from the upper deck, looking out to Fletcher’s Lake and watching a variety of birds fly past and through the trees on the property.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and heartwarming review! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the space. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime for more serene mornings on the deck!
4 of us stayed in this lake house after a golf trip. Each of us enjoyed having our own very nice bedrooms and all the bathroom amenities that we needed. The kitchen is large and well appointed and the welcome snacks and waters were much appreciated. The large living areas and dining table were nice for hanging out and having dinner that we had delivered. A surprise was the media room with comfortable seating and large projector screen and great sound system. The location near the lake is absolutely beautiful. We only wish we were able to stay longer!

When we arrived there was construction happening next door with loud equipment and blowing dust clouds. This left outdoor areas unusable and very dirty. The garbage bins out front smelled like rotting fish and were crawling with maggots. Beware of very steep downward driveway. We asked if early check in was possible - which they accommodated but at first said no so we drove around until 4 because we didn’t see the updated message - but I think that left some areas neglected (e.g., hair in showers etc). The mattress in the primary bedroom needs to be replaced because it’s totally collapsed on one side. The heat pump unit has mold and the basement either smells like mildew or cat pee. There is a general sense of a “very used” air about the whole house. I think with some deep cleaning and some replacements this place could be nice. We only stayed 1/5 nights we had booked and then moved to somewhere else. We only booked this place because the VRBO we were supposed to stay in ended up falling through. We were very happy at our next choice!

Thank you for sharing such detailed feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the experience you had and that your stay didn’t meet expectations. The construction next door was unfortunately out of our control, but we’re happy to share that it has since been completed. We also sincerely apologize for the cleanliness concerns you encountered, this is certainly not the standard we strive for. We had issues with our previous cleaning team, but rest assured, we’ve since hired a new team and those issues have been fully addressed.
We’ve also taken note of the other points you mentioned from outdoor cleanliness and waste management to furniture and maintenance needs and are actively working to improve. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’re grateful you took the time to share it with us.
