Relaxing Week!

We had a great week relaxing on the two docks, swimming, paddle boarding and canoeing. And the fish were biting, which was a bonus. The cabin interior is nicely done with knotty pine everywhere, and great beds and furniture. We would recommend this place.

We were able to spend my birthday weekend at Jen’s beautiful cottage. The cottage is gorgeous and very clean. Our favourite part was spending the cool mornings on the dock with a coffee looking out onto the water. The road directly to the cottage is rocky and narrow, and Jen explains this in her welcome instructions. Jen was very responsive when I asked questions. Overall, we had a great weekend and even got engaged at the cottage :).

Nice place to stay.

100% need a coat rack at front doors, there was nowhere for ppl to put their winter clothes.Should be made clear the bunkie cabin is not available during the winter, we couldn’t t even find it after 3 days of looking for it. Were were expecting 4 usable bedrooms.

Perfect secluded cottage

This was the perfect cottage. If you like to feel secluded this is the place to stay. Great indoor and outdoor fire places to sit around, we enjoyed playing board games on stormy nights and gazed at the immaculate stars from the dock on clear ones. The cottage and property had so much to offer we didn't leave once in 3 nights. Beautiful lake, we enjoyed sippong.our coffee on the dock, paddle boarding and paddle boating. There's lots of different wildlife in the area including a very friendly resident chipmunk. We didn't use the Bunkie but it was a GREAT addition to have, even just to explore the marsh with binoculars from the deck. Highly recommend staying here, would be great with kids too. 10/10 wouldn't change a thing.
