Loved the spacious cabin, great bedrooms and bathroom, beautiful property with plentiful wildlife, easy walk to the beach, fabulous veranda, and gracious hosts. Our group had seven adults, three children under age 2, and two dogs during our three-night stay. There was room for all to read and relax, with space to play games, entertain the little ones, and enjoy our meals together. Well equipped home in every aspect. While we didn't make a fire in the fire pit, we did use it as a sitting area for a family lunch. All around great time at this well-maintained and attractive property. Thank you, Gaye and Brian!

Away from main site, yet easy access to beaches, community center, store and a few restaurants. Quiet evenings in pastoral setting. Extremely clean with all required amenities - we only had to rent a WiFi router for basic access to internet (good cell coverage). Owners quick to respond to any queries to make out stay most comfortable and enjoyable. We would definitely stay there again!

We had a wonderful vacation at this property. The cottage was super clean, spacious, and well- maintained, with a large private yard. We enjoyed the pool table, bikes and rainy day activities. Our favourite feature was the extra large screened-in veranda. It felt like you were outside, but without the mosquitoes. The owners, Gaye and Brian, were super nice, welcoming and helpful. The cottage is an easy 10 minute bike ride to the VB restricted area, or a short walk to two other beaches. We highly recommend it and hope to rent again!

Excellent
I can’t say enough good things about this place. We had such a good time. The location is perfect, close to everything. The best part was the veranda, we could sit out there when the weather was not so good and still enjoy the outdoors. Our host was exceptional. Always there is we needed something. Although we didn’t really need anything because she thought of everything. Definitely recommend this place

Amazing cabin!!
This cabin exceeded my expectations! It is very spacious and has everything you need. The kitchen is very well stocked, including many gadgets that came in handy. The bathroom is nice, clean and newly renovated. The wrap around veranda was one of my favourite areas of the place! Really nice to sit and relax in the evening and not have to worry about bugs. There were several bikes in a variety of sizes which my family loved. Unfortunately, we did not get to use the fire pit do to the fire ban but it was still a beautiful area to sit and enjoy the surrounding trees. Gaye was very good at responding to my messages promptly and made check-in and check out a breeze! We will definitely be back!

A perfect summer getaway
This place exceeded our expectations. The veranda, which isn’t really shown much in the photos was our haven. It was huge and perfect for morning coffee and reading while listening to the birds and watching for wildlife.
We appreciated that everything was labeled, organized, and easy to find. It really felt like home.
I do recommend bringing your own bikes or getting the VB parking pass to drive in to the main lot if you want the best beaches. We were fine with that but if you are hoping for a quick walk to white sandy beaches, this cabin might be a bit too far out. But on the plus side, you get complete privacy and a great big fire pit area everyone can huddle around at night. On the rainy days we enjoyed playing pool and watching a few of the old movies they had.
My one recommendation would be to have a few more fans, one for each bedroom. We were lucky it was mostly cool at night but the first day was sweltering and the AC didn’t really get into the bedrooms.
Also, the third bedroom didn’t have a bunk bed, it was two double beds which for us, was even better. Definitely plan to visit this place again!

We had a great stay in this very clean, roomy, home away from home. The screened in veranda was amazing and spacious. The pool table was a hit and the deer every evening on the yard was a real treat. Of course all the fantastic beaches near by were also the highlight.

We thoroughly enjoyed spending time at this Victoria beach cottage. The cottage was well equipped and quite clean. The owners were very friendly and very helpful. The location was perfect! We enjoyed exploring the area! Victoria Beach, Albert Beach and Sandy Bay were only a few minutes away by car. The cabin is nicely nestled in its own little area and the children loved playing outside. The big veranda gave us the opportunity to get fresh air while feeling like we were sitting outside. It was perfect for all age groups. There was a very nice fire pit area which would have been wonderful to be able to use during the evenings but unfortunately the heat and extreme dry weather produced a fire ban. We would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to get away and relax. We certainly will consider going back. Thank you Gaye for the possibility of such great family time!

Great Place for R &R
We really enjoyed our stay - the cabin was well kept, clean, and was everything it stated in the listing. The host Gaye was fantastic and responsive. We went to get away as a family, enjoy fireside chats, play games and just spend time together. It gave us that and more!! Location wise, it didn't have great bike trails that didn't require highway travel. *Wifi would have been a perk but we knew it wasn't there (* see listing). We would absolutely do it again. Thanks Gaye... we loved all the cottage 'feels' that we experienced. You were a great host.

Home away from home
We had a great stay. It was very cozy. Lots of space, lots of things to do. We had pool tournaments, read books, put puzzles together & best of all relaxed together as a family.
The toboggan hill and skating rink were close by, the gift shop was about a 10 min drive, I recommend visiting carol’s on Leon.
The communication with Gaye was great and she was very helpful. Made sure we had everything we needed when she knew she wouldn’t be around.
It was so easy to forget it wasn’t home and we were sad to leave.
I would definitely rent again. It was a terrific time!

Very comfortable 1960's Cottage/Home
4 adults and 2 children stayed with space to spare. Was everything we wanted. Too many movies to choose from!! The pool table was a bonus and we loved the vintage Board games. Hosts were very accommodating bringing us an endless supply of wood for the big fireplace in the common area. Convienently close to the Snoman trails.

Winter vacation
Very nice house and property.
We have 5 children so found the hot water tank a bit too small and slow but still it is worth 5 stars. We really enjoyed the fire place and the property and house.

Spacious property.
Way more room than we were expecting. The basement had two twin beds which helped us spread out. Great wrap around screened in porch. Kitchen was fully stocked with every kitchen appliance you could need. Tons of blackberry bushes on the road in to pick fresh berries for pancakes.

A Tranquil Retreat
This accommodation offered everything we needed to host family and friends: comfortable beds, newly renovated bathroom, large, thoroughly equipped kitchen, many different seating options for dining and relaxing throughout the day, plenty of good bicycles for exploring, and the list goes on. Best of all was the silence. Because it is located just outside the restricted area of Vic Beach and surrounded by bush, we were never disturbed. It is completely silent at night, so everyone was able to sleep with windows open, fresh air, and silence. The bedrooms are in a wing of their own, and those who wished to visit later into the night never worried about disturbing those who wanted to sleep.
This home is located on the peninsula, so regardless of the condition of the water on the lake, there was always an easily accessible beach that was perfect for swimming.
It was apparent to us that this house has been designed to accommodate people of all ages and has been well cared for over the years. Finally, our hosts were attentive, but respectful of our privacy. Gaye responded quickly to any requests we had and made us feel welcome to settle in with care as we would in our own home. The expectations of the responsibilities of both host and guests were clearly communicated, so we knew exactly what was provided and expected on both sides.
I can't recommend this home more positively for a comfortable, quiet stay.
