*NOTE: Please be mindful that the space is beautiful but it is still only 600 square feet on the main floor with two 150sf lofts (900sf of living space total). Don't expect an excessive amount of space. The space is perfect for 1-5 people, any more than that & it can feel a bit crowded if you're space-sensitive.

*NOTE: On the rear deck, JLC is heavily tree’d & private. Do be mindful however that just like many cottages, neighbouring properties are in close proximity & during high season there will be activity on the lake, surrounding docks & properties.

*NOTE: The 3rd bedroom (queen + twin) is technically a loft, which requires climbing a ladder for access & no door. We do provide a curtain on the railing for privacy from below*

*NOTE: WIFI is maxed out at 5-15 MBPS which is all that is needed to stream a movie on one device at a time or connect your devices to the internet for browsing. Connection issues may arise so please be mindful of this. It is rural satellite internet.

*NOTE: Inside the cabin can get somewhat cold in the deep winter months (sub -10 degrees), even with all of the heat on. If you wear a sweater though you should be fine. Electric heating is provided for the chilly weather. Baseboard heating in most rooms is provided. Wall heater at front door is on a thermostat (DO NOT TURN OFF THIS KNOB AFTER CHECKOUT AS IT MAINTAINS HEAT IN THE SPACE WHILE VACANT). With the fire going you should be nice & toasty, however, if you need more heat, contact us & we can turn on one more space heater in the living room. Firewood is not provided, please purchase firewood in Bancroft.

*NOTE: Throughout the winter months, you will require a 4x4 or larger vehicle with good winter tires to gain access to the cottage.

Hot water is on limited supply! Try to take short showers & avoid using two water-supplied appliances at once (dishwasher + washing machine).
The water is UV pre-filtered using a state-of-the-art water filtration system, so no need to bring water with you.
