Wonderful Family Vacation

We enjoyed our short stay in this lovely cottage country, close to the Fenelon Falls. The place is clean, Paul the host was prompt to respond to my questions and concerns. For the fishing enthusiasts, this lake is good for fishing. We caught a lot of fish in a day. My children were thoroughly thrilled and happy.

Great family get-away!

We took a small vacation away with our teen kids. Location was great, house had lots of space for all of us and was nice and clean. Paul was vwry communicative. Waking up and having coffee overlooking the lake was just perfect! Location is great being close enough to town - we took a few hours to explore one afternoon. We loved having the kayaks to use and one of our kiddos even caught a fish! A fanatastic family vacation was had by all.

Beautiful lake and friendly host

We recently stayed at this cottage for 4 nights. Communication with Paul was great. He is very responsive. The location was beautiful backing onto Cameron Lake. There were no bugs during the day (only at dusk). Water was clear and the dock provided allowed easy access with our water toys and the ones provided. We did run out of paper towels and Kleenex during our stay. Overall we were very happy with the cottage and the experience.

Fantastic location! The cottage matched the description perfectly. The kitchen was equipped with all the necessary items. We enjoyed dining at several excellent local restaurants, all within a 10-minute drive. The fishing was impressive; we reeled in two bass weighing over 3 pounds right from the dock. We also rented a boat from the nearby marina and had great success catching numerous bass and a few walleye just 5-10 minutes from the cottage. The kids had a blast with the kayaks and float tubes. Evening campfires were delightful, with a starry sky overhead. Swimming was enjoyable, though there were a few weeds, so I suggest bringing water shoes or slides. The neighboring cottages are quite close together; one side was unoccupied during our stay, while the other side was occupied by a lovely, quiet couple. So, if you're looking for seclusion, this may not be the best choice. Overall, there were many positives about this place, and we would certainly consider returning.

Lovely quiet neighbourhood on a beautiful lake with amazing views. Great location. Reasonably comfortable beds. The unit is surface cleaned.Other than that the cottage is extremely basic, poorly supplied and in dire need of numerous repairs. Too many to list but one example is the downstairs sliding door which has no latch and lock. Just a piece of wood to set in the slider.The couches are very cheap and uncomfortable.There are no baking dishes, mixing bowls, casseroles or serving dishes. Not even paper towels or food wrap which are always a given.The internet is frustratingly slow, sometimes off line. Streaming is not possible.Only after booking and paying will you be advised to bring your own drinking water.The outdoor cushions are left outside, they were wet and filthy with rotting leaves so unusable.All of this is such a shame because the house has so much potential and is in an upscale neighbourhood.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 Dec, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate all guest input and would like to provide some context for future guests reading this review. The kitchen is stocked with baking dishes, mixing bowls, casseroles, and serving ware, and these items are used regularly by other guests. The internet is provided by Bell and has supported remote work for many past guests, including extended stays. The cottage uses a UV-filtered lake water system, which is safe for drinking. As a personal preference disclosure (clearly communicated after booking), guests who prefer bottled water are welcome to bring their own. This is common for lakefront properties. To clarify, the downstairs patio door is equipped with a working latch and lock. The wooden dowel is supplied as an optional added layer of security, not a substitute for a lock. While we respect all feedback, this review is not representative of the experience most guests have. The property maintains a 9/10 overall rating, and we are a Superhost on another platform, based on many stays over several years. Like any home or seasonal cottage, there are occasional minor items that require maintenance. However, the property does not have major or numerous repairs outstanding, as suggested, and we actively maintain the cottage to a high standard.
