Peaceful Lake Stay

We had a wonderful time at the cottage. It was clean and peaceful, and a great location while in town for a wedding at Colloca winery. We also appreciated the back patio and camp chairs for sitting by the lake.

Loved the setup of the place the most. Right on the water with a big fire pit! Well stocked kitchen and bathroom, comfy beds, and close to many things! Bring your water shoes but the little beach was a nice bonus! Will be returning for sure!

Perfect house close by Fairhaven Beach. We really enjoyed being right on the water and using the paddleboard. Sky was beautiful at night with all of the stars. We really enjoyed our stay wish we could’ve had more time.

Relaxing get away

We had a wonderful stay in this cabin which is larger than the pictures make it appear. There was PLENTY of room for our family of 5. We really enjoyed fishing, swimming and boating in the lake. The paddle boat on the property was an extra bonus that my children really enjoyed. We highly recommend this place.

Awesome lakefront property!

We visit the area once a twice a year to enjoy the amazing fishing that Lake Ontario offers. This is our first time staying at your property. We had a great time! The lakefront back yard was perfect for us to fish between the rain showers and the outdoor firepit was amazing....allowing us to relax and enjoy a couple of beers. I would definitely stay here again!

Renn Faire Lodgings

Great location, wonderful views. Comfortable set up. As is always true, the folks in beds are more comfortable than the ones on the pull out so be thoughtful about how you will arrange your party. We should have put the 12 year olds and on it. Would definitely stay again.
