Beautiful Waterfront Cottage on Kennisis Lake

While the weather wasn't as warm as we hoped, this cottage provides a truly relaxing experience. The cottage is well appointed, with everything you need for your stay including a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and plenty of towels. It currently has no tv, but this was great to help us disconnect from our every day.While we were not able to spend a ton of time on the water due to the weather, the time we did spend was lovely. Super clear water with a firm sand bottom. Looking forward to booking this cottage again earlier in the summer to take advantage of everything it has to offer. If you are looking for a place to unplug and relax, this is a good one.

We were very pleasantly surprised as the cottage looked even better in person than in the photos. The location is fantastic on little lake Kennesis that connects with the larger lake. The stairs leading to the beach area (which was under water when we were there) was still great as it gave our kids and easy way to get access to the water. There were so many outdoor spaces, as they had just redone the deck which had plenty of space to eat outside and hang out. There is also a great fire pit area for real fires, and also a propane fire pit area (we did not use this area as it was a bit dangerous for small kids as they could easily slip through the railing which is perched above the water) but it looked like a beautiful area. The dock was also very large and well built. We did not end up renting the boat, but we did use the kayak and paddle board provided and we also brought another paddle board since we had two families staying there. This place was a perfect layout for two families wanting to stay together as there was almost 2 master bedrooms. One was on the other side of the cottage and had a separate laundry/office room with a 2 pc bath attached to it. This was perfect for our friends with an infant as they put the pack n play in that room right beside their room which was separate from the main living area of the cottage. The only downside for us with small children is that there was no real (yard) for them to run around without us being worried about the water.... but we expected that anyway so it wasn't a dissapointment. There was still lots of space for them to do some playing on the deck. The cottage was equipped with everything needed and we found it a huge bonus not to have to deal with bringing our own towels and having the ability to do laundry on site was great. We also loved the updates done to the cottage, kitchen and flooring was beautiful, and the main bathroom and shower was fantastic (families note no bath) but our kids loved the shower as it had a flexible shower head they could use to wash themselves. We would definitely recommend this place and stay here again! Thanks so much for the wonderful stay Bob! Cheers

We went up to Bob's cottage to escape and to celebrate a couple of birthdays. The cottage was as beautiful as described in the listing with all the comforts of home and then some. The view from the deck and dock were incredible and we managed to get a couple of clear nights of starry skies and a full moon. The quiet was just what we needed. A visit to the Wolf Center exceeded our expectations. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our birthday dinners and BBQ our steaks. Everyone loved the espresso machine. We immediately felt at home and relaxed to know Bob was just an email away if we needed anything, including having the driveway plowed when we had an unexpected snowfall. Can't wait to go back and try out the canoe!

We stayed at the cottage for 4 nights in October. Bob was great to deal with. He was quick to get back with answers. The cottage is exactly how it appears. The kitchen has absolutely everything you need and then some. Having firewood available is an awesome plus as many places don't do that. There were 3 couples there and the cottage provided tons of space. It was a great experience for us and would rent again in a heartbeat.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage has everything you could want. It is clean, comfortable and well equipped. The property is lovely and the lake is fantastic. We enjoyed using the kayaks and SUP board. The fire pits are great and it is nice to have the choice of gas or a wood fire. Bob is a great host, who is happy to answer any questions you may have. I highly reccomend staying here.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage. It was very relaxing, and just what we needed to get away before winter. I especially loved that it was equipped with all the necessities needed. I appreciated that everything was clean and well maintained, right down to the fresh, warm, cozy beds. Bob was an amazing host and met us when we arrived to provide a quick overview of the cottage. He made made sure we were comfortable and made himself available if we had any questions. I wish we could have stayed longer and the weather cooperated a little better. We will have to plan another visit sometime soon, perhaps in the summer months where we can enjoy swimming and canoeing, but would gladly visit again any time of year!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage. The open concept kitchen was spacious and had everything we needed. The living/dining room was also spacious with a great view of the lake. The bedrooms were roomy and the beds very comfortable. The bathroom was newly remodeled and nice and clean. We never ran out of hot water. The outside space was amazing. A huge deck with two separate sitting areas, a desk at the waterfront with a fire table and a fire pit. The views were wonderful from any of these areas. Bob was a great host. He answered all of my questions quickly. We would definitely stay at this cottage again.

We had a lovely 3 night stay at this cottage. It was a bit chilly as it was during November, but the cottage had nice heating as well as an amazing fireplace. There was also a shelf full of fun boardgames, which we enjoyed later during the night when it got too cold out. We couldn't hear a single sound except the nature, which was exactly what we had hoped! It was the perfect place to really get to enjoy each other's company :) It was a memorable couple of days overall.
