Beautiful home and grounds that were clean and was great for hosting our 10 friends for the weekend! It had tons of things that we didn’t even think we would need that made our stay that much better. Host was great too and very responsive/helpful, we will be back! Only downside was that the listing says it sleeps 12 but it only slept 10 comfortably for us. Other than that, amazing place for a weekend getaway.

This property is a delight. We slept 9 women comfortably (the beds were VERY comfortable) and had a wonderful time. The caretaker was lovely and answered all questions. A couple of things that might be deciding factors for other renters …Access to the beach was a bit of a challenge and would be impossible for older people, small children or anyone with mobility issues. Hardly any of the doors to the balconies open, which I am sure is to prevent noise bothering the neighbours.We were sent a note just before arrival saying we couldn’t do any loud talking or laughing outside after 7 pm. These things did NOT effect our stay at all, but might be a consideration for other renters.

My friends and I had an excellent stay for 4 days. It easily accommodated 7 with room to spare. Everything was clean and all appliances functional. The kitchen was well stocked with any hardware we needed. The hot tub was ready to go and the property manager gave good instructions on how to do the chlorine dosing.We had one issue where a short power outage cut off the tap water pump, but the manager came over to fix it immediately.Overall this was a fantastic stay and would recommend it to anyone.

It was a lovely property. The views from all the windows were amazing. I have to give a HUGE shout out to Brian who was the contact person. He was so helpful, always responding quickly. He took especially good care of the hot tub which was much appreciated. Only real complaint: because of lake level rise, the property does not have access to a real beach. With a little climbing down, there is a very small area of rocky beach but no access to any more beachfront. Property listing needs to be updated.

We had an amazing stay at this cottage for our boys’ trip! The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a fun and relaxing weekend. The location was perfect—close to the water and great outdoor space for hanging out. Urooj was super responsive and made check-in easy. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a great getaway spot!

Great Cottage Rental

This is a fantastic cottage rental for a large family or group. We recently used it for a weekend as a group of 9 and there was plenty of comfortable sleeping areas, spacious interior for cooking and relaxing. The hot tub was fantastic and the rest of the property is great especially for outdoor games and bbq weekend. Would highly recommend.

A great stay!

We stayed for two nights with 3 couples and our young kids. We all enjoyed our stay and had a great time! The area is lovely and quiet, hot tub and views are great, the house was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was very well stocked. We also used the wood fireplace a lot and it was so cozy. The host was very responsive and helpful. Only complaint is the beds were quite hard. Overall a great stay, we would come back again!

Family reunion

The location and size was perfect for our party of 7 and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property manager was very helpful and responsive as was the owner. The house is a bit outdated and could use some light renovations and care to add to its appeal. We would stay there again and recommend it to other guests for sure.

The place looks and feels great. Everything is good quality. The place is spacious and peaceful. The kitchen is well equipped. There is a beautiful sound of the lake outside, feels a bit like the Atlantic. Really loved the feel of it. The hot tub is great and spacious. It wasn't too hot, but we told the owner and they told us they'd look into it. The manager of the property stopped by and was super nice. The correspondence before and after the stay was a bit delayed, but was very efficient during our stay. Overall, we had an amazing time and will definitely be back!

Great spot for a vacation! Amazing view of the lake and great swimming spot. Everything was very clear, instructions were great, and the house was very clean. The kitchen was well supplied as well. We just needed to get our own coal/lighter fluid but that was stated before our arrival so we were well prepared. My only note was that the location of the cottage is that our service plans considered all of our phones to be in the USA and therefore none of us could use our data/make phone calls as we had no service, and the wifi only worked the first day we were there. Even when we did have wifi, it was very slow. If the wifi could be fixed, it'd be 5 stars. Otherwise, clean, beautiful, quiet, and well supplied cottage rental! Thank you for letting us stay!

Not the best property to stay !!!!

This is one of the worst property that I have stayed in. The home was not very clean. When we arrived there were flies and spiders all over. Throughout our stay we had to deal with flies flying all around and cobwebs all over. Please don't look under the pillows of the couches - it was filthy. When we asked the property manager how to use the gas stove, he did not know!! On the listing they advertised that there was a pool and games table, no where to be found. Only pro about this property it has a nice view.

Lakefront VRBO Near Canadian Motorsports Park

We rented this VRBO for a race weekend at Canadian Motorsports Park. The house is just a 20 to 25 minute drive from the track, making it an ideal home base for our group. With its beautiful waterside setting and spacious layout, it offered both comfort and convenience throughout our stay.HighlightsThe air conditioning kept the home cool, even on hot afternoons.Ample linens and plenty of beds meant everyone had their own space.Modern design and large windows provided a stunning view of the lake.Handicap accessible entry and rooms made things easy for guests with mobility needs.Areas for ImprovementOutdoor noise restrictions start at 7 pm, which limits evening activities.Cell service is only reliable in the driveway, and roaming charges may apply.Wi-Fi was slow, a common issue in rural areas.No charcoal or firewood is provided for the fire pit.Beds are very firm, which might not suit everyone.The fire pit sits near the house instead of by the lake as shown in the photos, so updating the images would help set expectations.Final ThoughtsThis property is a scenic, comfortable getaway close to CMTP. Despite a few minor inconveniences, mostly expected in a rural setting, the home’s positives clearly outweigh its negatives. We would stay here again for another race weekend or a quiet lakeside retreat.
