Luxury Cottage on ice-fishing Rice Lake and year round activities

Barbara and her family were a pleasure to have hosted at our Lakehouse. Super polite, respectful and wonderful people. They left the home is a very clean state. We would highly recommend Barbara to any host. Thank you Barbara. Regards, Amir

Hi Scott, we enjoyed hosting you! Thank you for being so respectful of our Lakehouse. We hope you enjoyed some fishing and took the boats out. Rice Lake is a quiet lake best known for great fishing all year round. Ice fishing huts become the norm in the winter once the lake freezes. The weeds do tend to creep up and we have our maintenance crew clear them up regularly. Sorry you didn’t let us know, we would have had our guys out to clear them for you so you could enjoy the water more. Kind Regards

Hi Carrie, Thank you for staying at our cottage and for your review. We are glad you enjoyed the water toys: kayak, canoe, pedal boat and water pad, and you also appreciated how spacious the cottage is. Yes, Rice Lake is well known for being one of the best lakes for fishing. We even have fishing rods for your use and we noticed you left bait behind. We’re happy you enjoyed the fishing too. It also makes for a safe and quiet lake since there are few speed boats, respecting those that are fishing. Fishing is great all year round! There are fishing huts set up on the ice in the winter once the lake freezes and it is safe to do so. The lake is safe to walk on, skate, and often even drive on. In town there is even ice racing (dirt bikes with winter tires!). In the summer, depending on the current the weeds do get pulled in. We clear them up before arrivals and we encourage guests to let us know if the weeds creep up, so we can send out maintenance team to clear them so the water is cleared for your enjoyment. Thank you again, and we look forward to hosting you again in the future.

Thank you very much Chad! We're very pleased to know you and your family enjoyed our cottage and the amenities. We strive to offer nothing short of the best possible. Vacations should always be experiential getaways with lasting memories. We're grateful to have had the opportunity to be part of your experience. You and your family were wonderful guests who treated and respected the property as your own. We would love for you to stay again. We are available year round and will be including an ice fishing hut this winter. We do have a maintenance person that rakes out the seaweed regularly. Rice Lake was once a wild rice bed in the early 1900s and because it is a shallow lake, usually after heavy rain, the seaweed does get pushed to the shoreline.

Elaine and her family are exceptional guests to host. They left the home in a very clean condition. Elaine is easy to communicate with, we would welcome her back anytime.

Elyee, it was my pleasure to host you and would welcome your family back anytime! You treated the home and surroundings with great respect, as it were your own. The house was left in a very clean condition which is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

Thank you Melissa! It was a pleasure to have you and your family make our cottage your vacation destination. We look forward to having you come back again! We strive to provide a true 5 star stay in every way for our guests. The weeds in the lake is something what makes Rice Lake one of the top fishing destinations in Ontario. We are the only property in the area that has a maintenance person that goes in the water and rakes the weeds from our frontage of the lake. The weeds flow and drift in from north to south daily.
