We greatly enjoyed our one week stay at Isabelle's cottage. The place has everything that one needs for a tranquil stay away from the daily hustle and bustle: clean, well furnished, a well-equipped kitchen, spacious deck, canopy with outdoor lounge seating, fire pit, wifi and TV, games porch ... and so on. The VRBO description warned us that this is not a spot from which to swim, but it was still a bit of a disappointment at first that the waterfront is mostly weeds and lillies. However, we quickly adjusted to the view, and loved the peace and quiet. The nearby beach at Rideau Ferry Yacht Club was surprisingly uncrowded and a great spot for swimming. Isabelle was never more than a quick dm or phone call away. Communication was excellent. Any and all identified issues (real and id-10-t) were quickly addressed. We look forward to returning next year if the cottage is available.
