The place is astonishing, cozy, homey, and very charming. We found it pleasantly spacious for 4 people. The kitchen has all the supplies and basics you might need. The grounds around and the nature at the lake are just stellar. True beauty star of Kawartha region. Not many motorized vehicles on the water. Perfect for sweeming. Water was cristal clear and warm. The hosts are such lovely people, they went above and beyond to make sure our stay is enjoyable and were able to give us great tips on scenic kayaking routes and hiking nearby. Taking a boat to the island adds a sense of advantage. We grabbed some yummy ice cream at the Marina where we parked. Parking is paid now ($50 a weekend). Marina also has a diner and a short kayak trip away if you want to explore beyond the island. We enjoyed the sense of privacy that the island offers. Hosts were staying on the island as well. Big thank you to Mariola and her husband for sharing this place with us. We can only hope one day to return.

The cottage is pretty and comfortable. It is in a lovely lake with a great view of the sunset. Mariola was welcoming and a lovely host. We enjoyed our weekend.

My wife and I had an absolutely unforgettable stay, surrounded by the serene beauty of nature. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the secluded atmosphere and the gentle sounds of passing boats (we saw maybe 3 all day). Waking up to the refreshing breeze and sharing a cup of morning coffee while gazing at the calm waters ahead created the perfect start to our day. The rental itself provided all the amenities we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. One of the highlights of our experience was the opportunity to go kayaking together, which allowed us to explore different islands and coves, creating cherished memories and bringing us closer as a couple. The nearby trails provided picturesque walks amidst stunning landscapes. Evenings were pure magic as we witnessed breathtaking sunsets while sipping wine and reveling in each other's company. The vibrant colors of the sky painted a romantic backdrop, allowing us to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the location. In summary, this rental provided us with a truly romantic retreat immersed in the beauty of nature. The serene surroundings, and thoughtful amenities made our stay truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this destination to couples seeking a peaceful and memorable getaway. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the hosts for creating such a remarkable experience

When you arrive at the Cottage dock the water is deep and clear. A short walk up to the cottage, and you will see the beautiful view of the Kasshabog Lake. Cottage is elevated so there was always a breeze. Large windows allowed plenty of air movement. Very Private from the other cottages.

We had a very peaceful and restful time at Mariola's. Early morning swims in deep, clear water. Lovely views through the trees to nearby islands and pleasant sunsets. A large lake to explore in kayaks or a small aluminum canoe. Mariola was a friendly and very helpful host, quick to answer our questions about equipment and offering to bring us back extra provisions to the island during our weeklong stay.
