We really enjoyed our stay with our family of 17. The room were sufficient, the rec room was fabulous and the access to pool table, arcade and water toys was ideal for the age ranges of our children.
Definitely need more bowls & spoons and a broom but those are small things. We had a blast!

Could sleep 20 as advertised, but kitchen and bathrooms are not adequate for 20 people (only 1 shower and there were 10 of us).
If you are just looking to be by the lake this cottage has a private dock and has kayaks, paddle boards etc. The building itself is pretty run down and the grounds could use some major TLC (very overgrown). Great cottage for a young group going to hang by the lake, but not for young families.

It's right by the lake. We enjoyed different kind of boats. The big room is great too, everyone finds his activity. Just one minor issue: can't connect my laptop to the TV through HDMI. Overall, it's great.

This is a huge space for a get together. It’s an eclectic 5 bedroom but has a great entertaining space with plenty of seating and dining for a large family/group. The large TV was great along with the pool table. Large bbq was great for meals and lots of outdoor water kayaks standup boards, canoes and paddle boats with plenty of life jackets which we all enjoyed. Bill and his staff were very accommodating when there were a couple things missing on the first day like a few extra plates or a cookie sheet etc. Also on the first day the ice maker wasn’t working but Bill made sure it was looked after that same day. Also initially there was an Arcade game there not working which wasn’t really a problem but Bill made sure it was repaired which again kids loved. All in all we had a great time here!

Very roomy and many activities to get up to around the property, lacking slightly on kitchen supplies.

The layout of the cottage provides an awesome common area for a large group. Separate bedrooms allow for privacy... We enjoyed great weather at a great location.

The property was good, not exceptional. We had fun, enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others. That said, there were some little things that were annoying: although the kitchen was well stocked in terms of pots and pans, there were no glasses or dish rags , limited cups and plates. When the owner was contacted, he very quickly brought platic disposable glasses and a dish rag. The paddle boats were very dirty to the point that our elderly family members did not want to touch them. The bedrooms are very small. Again, we enjoyed our stay and recommend the place but keep your expectations in check.

Couldn't have found a better spot for all of us than Firehouse cottages!!!
Our entire group was impressed at the inside of the cottage and the view the second we walked in. The space of the large cottage was perfect for our large group and it accommodated to all of our different group ages, from elders, adults , teenagers , to children. There was always something to do for all of us, fishing, canoeing , walking, paddle boats and sight seeing.
The location of the cottage it's perfectly located between two towns, Dorset and Minden, in case you need something from drinks, foods firewood, toiletries to medicine. We took advantage of also being close to Algonquin Park to go and drive to our provincial park and admire its beauty. In other words, location, location, location is one of the many perks of this beautiful cottage.
I have saved the last advantage to the end, Bill is an awesome person to deal with and always readily available to answer questions and concerns, no matter how ridiculous they were, because I know I had some ridiculous ones from the get go. He answer questions for me and helped me through the process of renting through vrbo as this is my first time using this site. Once I was there at the property he made us all feel at home and my entire family is grateful for that.
We will be coming back for sure as we found what we were looking for, a place away from our everyday places that has the same feeling, a warm home feeling.

Nice getaway spot with friends!
I visited the cottage with 5 other friends for our week off, and we had a wonderful experience at this cottage. It was right off the highway which was easy to find, with a large area for parking,. There was more than enough space for us all, and there was always something to do both inside and outside. We loved having all the boats and games, and had no internet issues. Everything was tidy and clean, and I had easy communication with the owner to make sure that everything was okay. Everyone in our group would be happy to return!
