Love our family time at Jim and Del's. The trailer is roomy, clean and everything you would want. Very peaceful, calming place to get away. Couldn't ask for better people. The lake is great for cooling off and watching nature at it's finest. Thank you again for another great visit. See you next year.

From the moment we arrived, Jim and Del were exceptionally accommodating, kind, and wonderful! Couldn’t have asked for better hosts. The cottage and property itself were amazing - so much wildlife for our kids to see, and it was only a short drive from the GTA. Water was super clear and clean and perfect to swim in(especially during a heat wave)! The raft/dock is an amazing feature. We loved paddling around the lake visiting our turtle “friends” every day. Kids loved the cabin and parents loved the AC in the spacious trailer. Cooked and ate outside everyday, was wonderful. We will definitely try to return every summer as a family friendly vacation spot.
