This property is fully equipped! There wasn’t anything missing. They even had lawn games set up and waiting for us. Fishing was GREAT! Right off the dock we caught plenty bass, perch, crappie, catfish and pike! Swimming was very refreshing, it’s about 30feet deep off the end of the dock. No complaints. Will absolutely book again. Only recommendation is maybe add some driving directions as the GPS took us a way that not many vehicles could get through.

We would liked to have stayed 2 weeks but sadly we had only 1 in this lovely spot. The cottage had everything we needed and more. The lake is a smaller one and kayaking during early morning, or after dinner when the water’s surface is a mirrored reflection of the lush surroundings, is a soothing exercise in meditation. We spent most of our time on the dock in the Muskoka chairs or in the water swimming and floating the day away. The climb from the water to the cottage is a challenge, but the intermittent landings are a perfect spot to catch your breath. We enjoyed early morning coffee on the deck overlooking the lake and it is the routine I will miss the most, I think. One tip for others would be to travel to and from the cottage using W. Gate Rd off of Hwy 7. Do not approach through Arden unless you like an adventure, as the road conditions (in 7/2023) along that approach are “challenging”.

Had an amazing week of swimming, kayaking, relaxing and exploring the area. Cottage was beautiful and so well-appointed - we wanted for nothing! Thanks for sharing your lovely cottage with our family.

The cottage met expectations, the surroundings were quiet, not much to do locally. Access to lake requires a certain level of fitness, due to steep incline

lovely and cozy cottage ever

That is such a lively place. Here is absolutely nothing to complain or be unsatisfactory. If I can choose where to spend rest of my life- that will be a place. Thank you

Wow, where to begin, this place was amazing! The Ball Cottage was super clean, comfortable and so well equipped! The decor inside was stunning and was displayed in a manner that suggested great thought and planning had gone into it. The exterior grounds and multiple level seating areas were fantastic and provided many options on where one could go to relax an enjoy the cottage. While the cottage is located a short walk up from the waterfront, the sturdy staircase made the trek up and down a breeze. We thoroughly enjoyed our time exploring beautiful Bull Lake with the Kayaks provided and the plethora of hiking options located nearby. Interaction with Cindy was seamless and without hesitation, in future, we would return to this property.

The cottage and property exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely be back. Thank you once again.
