About this property

Cottage on the lake: spa, sauna and private beach

This home offers 3 private cozy bedrooms and 1 bathroom equipped with a shower-tub combo. The main open-concept area features 2 living areas with plenty of seating for enjoying the lake view and cozy up to the fireplace. The spa is located in the sunroom which allows you to access the tub without stepping in snow! There is a mini-fridge located in the sunroom to keep your refreshment cold.
The well-water is drinkable.
In the winter, we strongly recommend travelling with an all-wheel-drive vehicle and winter tires as the cottage is located at the bottom of a hill. All vehicles are appropriate in the summertime.
There's also a propane BBQ available (propane included)!
Please note that, for security purposes, we have a camera pointing towards the parking lot. Please do not host illegal parties. No other areas have cameras.

Wonderful stay on Mother's day weekend

Great property and amazing location. Very clean lake right at the doorsteps. Super quiet at night and no light pollution. But truly, it's a private spa with barrel sauna, hot tab and a cold plunge in a lake. Rather scenic less than an hour drive from noisy Ottawa, and only a short drive from picturesque Wakefield and Chelsey villages. Hosts were very responsive and accommodating. No issues what so ever. I would highly recommend this place to anyone: from couples to larger families and groups. There is plenty of space for everyone.

Amazing Stay

My friends and I had a great stay at the Charming Lake House. Jaro (the host) was very responsive with any questions we had. The place was very clean, spacious and had a great cottage vibe. The hot tub was a great bonus. Would definitely recommend.

Hello Mark, we're so terribly sorry about this. This is totally unacceptable. We have spoken with the cleaners and will ensure this never happens again. We're happy that you enjoyed the rest of your stay.

Beautiful Val-Des-Monts getaway!

From the time we booked there was open communication between ourselves and the owners. Upon arrival we were blown away by scenic lake and breathtaking hills. The lake is surrounded by quaint villages with plenty of bakeries and shops. The hiking in the area was magnificent. The property itself is beautiful, and we found the cottage to be a perfect size. The open concept is nice for conversing while cooking, and the large deck is a great spot for lounging outside. We will definitely be back!

Clean, safe family getaway

This is a cozy lake house tucked away with a lot of privacy but also easy access to a small grocery store and pizzeria. Our family of 5 slept comfortably and enjoyed use of the spa and paddleboard, canoe and kayak. The house is simple, clean and uncluttered, with everything we needed. Host was extremely responsive.

Loved our stay!

This was the perfect summer getaway for our family! The cottage was spacious enough for 4 adults and 2 kids, with lots of comfortable areas to hang out in. We had a blast boating and swimming all day in the lake. The rental came with everything we needed and the hosts were quick to answer questions. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

Winter getaway

The cottage is cozy and well-equipped. The woodstove is a nice option (wood is not provided but can be purchased nearby). The hottub is very nice. Instructions for use are clear and easy to follow. We had to shovel our way in and out, but the owner contacted removal when we requested it. Would come back again!

Beautiful area. Cottage was very clean but upon arrival the cottage was extremely cold and took hours to warm up with the electric baseboard heating. There were no blind/curtains in one bedroom so it was very bright, early in the morning. We would return again but probably during a warmer time of year.

Beautiful, clean and cozy lakefront property

We loved our stay at this cottage. The home was spotless, large, modern and very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything you need. The beds were comfortable. The lake was calm and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and would absolutely return. Note that there is a bridge for cars across the lake from the cottage, which can create a small amount of traffic noise when cars cross it that is audible from the cottage. This did not bother us at all (the noise is not loud, quieter than a motor boat or seadoo). But if you want to get away from all traffic noise, or don't want to see any cars in your lake view, it is something to note. Again, this didn't affect our stay, we still had a wonderful and relaxing time.
