Great location and beautiful cottage

Hosts were lovely and very family oriented. Our family enjoyed all that nature had to offer with a lake that had little traffic, beavers, turtles, beautiful trail for our dog to get excited over. This place was close to the grocery store but some good local attractions such as Eagles Nest and the heritage/ mineral museum.

Relaxing retreat😎

We had a relaxing getaway on a very beautiful lake! James and Louise were great hosts, they were very welcoming and accommodating. The cottage was very clean and spacious. We spent most of our time on the water using the kayaks and paddle boat. Being very close to town we ventured into Bancroft as well as the Kawartha Dairy for a baby cone. The camp fire pit was relaxing as we looked up into the beautiful night sky. We would definitely go back!

A joyful return

We were delighted to return for another stay with Louise and James. They have made several improvements to what was already a wonderful guest experience, including a new dock and expanded walking trails. They are the kindest and most accommodating hosts, and really go above and beyond to make our family feel welcome. We look forward to returning year after year!

Wonderful Escape, Welcoming Hoats

Louise and James were welcoming hosts in a serene setting and easily available for any questions or concerns. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and spacious. We were three adults plus a dog and had no problem finding quiet zones to curl up with a book or enjoy the outdoors. The kitchen was well equipped with any appliances you might need. However, we generally used the BBQ. The beds were comfortable and bedrooms large. The bathroom clean with plenty of hot water for us all. The lake water was crystal clear and beautifully calm. We enjoyed using the canoe to paddle about as well as swimming throughout the day. James kindly took me on a guided walk on their trails which was incrediblely enjoyable. It quickly became clear that Louise and James care about the comfort of their guests as well as appreciate and respect the land. It was a wonderful week in a wooded oasis and we hope to return soon.

Get away on the Lake

Booked the cottage for a few days away. It was wonderful in all aspects. Bancroft is a nice little town. The cottage was basically a house !!! Well equipped for the different levels of weather ( we did have a solid 36 hour rain day). The Birch cottage was very modern but still gave you the in the woods feel. Went hiking for a bit, swimming in the lake and a lot of reading on the dock.. The hosts were your cottage neighbour and made everything very easy for us and accessible if needed! We hope to be able to get back. Would recommend!!

Would not go back

Not as private as we thought "the beach" is behind the owner house, cottage has an ant infestation everything was covered in ants, mold all threw the cottage which is frustrating when you have a child with respiratory issues not impressed, wouldnt say it was clean when we showed up everything we used had to be washed/ sanitized due to ants and mouse droppings, we had rain while there; water was coming out of the ceiling all over and out of light fixtures, threw closed windows the place is not water tight to say the least hints the molds all over definitely not a new issue, would not recommend this place. We would recommend a health and safety check from vrbo before renting again.

Wonderful stay!

Our group of two adults and four children (ages 9-16) had a wonderful time at this cottage. James and Louise were excellent hosts, friendly and helpful, who were also very respectful of our privacy. We loved spending time in and around the small, quiet lake. It was perfect for paddling, swimming and exploring. The kids were kept busy tromping through the woods, looking for frogs and trying to spot wildlife. The chorus of frogs and birds in this protected area is remarkable. The cottage was just the right size for us and has a good layout. The rooms and beds were comfy, the living area was perfect for games and movies. While the kitchen doesn't have a stove or oven, the appliances provided suited us just fine. We brought just enough groceries to fit the small fridge and freezer, and restocked in town partway through the week. Just a 5 minute drive away, it gave us an excuse to stop for ice cream along the highway. Overall, a very enjoyable stay. Thank you Louise and James!

Annual Moms Weekend

10/10! This property had all we needed and more. We booked last min due to a change in schedules for a few girls who were no longer able to make it so we were on the hunt for a smaller property as it would just be 4 of us this year (plus a 2 month old). Well let me tell you we had the most amazing and relaxing time. The accomodations were perfect plenty of room for sleeping, cooking and getting ready for our days. We were there for 3 nights 4 days and right from the moment we got into town both louise and james were welcoming us with open arms. We received a wonderful walk through of the cabin and property including some fun facts of wildlife and minerals in the area. All the amenities we needed were at our fingertips in the kitchen and the bbq making meal time a breeze! The lake water is so clear and because it isnt too deep its quite warm too! Bon fires were amazing looking up at the clear skys filled with endless stars. I could go on and on about this amazing spot, but i think the best thing i can say is WE CANT WAIT TO BOOK AGAIN!!! thank you again

Not a good experience

Cooking was painful because of no stove or oven. Found out when we got there that it was solar powered. Batteries were dead by 9pm and beeped all night every night. The on demand hot water was for a sink not shower. 1 minute you were frozen then next minute scalding hot. Not enjoyable to shower. Also flooring was lifted up in 1 spot and my cousin cut his toe open on tbe flooring. The hosts were nice people but really should spend a weekend in their cottage and see how bad it was. It was way too much money for what it was. Won't be back.

Fantastic getaway

My boyfriend and I wanted a quiet getaway and we found it. When we got their Louise and James greeted us with open arms, Louise showed us the cottage which had a card and a bottle of wine for my birthday, which was so thoughtful. We originally rented the cottage for 4 days but stayed for 5, we didn’t want to leave. The cottage was everything we dreamed of, so spacious and very clean. Other then food and clothes you don’t need to bring anything, it’s got more then we ever needed and some. We enjoyed using the canoe and the kayak’s and sitting on the doc first thing in the morning having our coffee. We will be defiantly returning next year. Thank you for a memorable 5 days…

We enjoyed our stay very much! The owners are very nice. Life jackets, kayaks and canoe were available for us to enjoy. The distance of water to the cabin was not exactly as the pictures made it seem. The lake was very private and we had the whole lake to ourselves for most of our stay

Quiet, clean, and welcoming

Our stay at this beautiful property outside Bancroft was the perfect family getaway. The owners, James and Louise, live on the property and were the perfect hosts. They were welcoming and accommodating, giving us access to all the benefits of their lakeside property - including access to kayaks and a canoe, two docks, and water toys for our kids. They went above and beyond to host our family (and dog!), leaving a bin of toys from their own grandkids in the rental unit for our young ones to play with. The unit itself was cozy and immaculately clean. We were delighted when we arrived to learn that it runs on solar power! And as a sign on the wall reminded us - there's no wifi, so talk to one another! There was plenty of space in the two bedrooms, kitchen, and sitting room, and the furnishings were comfortable. A short drive into Bancroft meant that we didn't need to haul groceries from home, instead choosing to stock up when we got there. Our stay on a peaceful, private lake in the Kawarthas with James and Louise was everything our family was hoping for this summer, and we will certainly be back!
