A beautiful cottage cabin by the lake, very clean, spacious and cosy with a warm fire pit by the water. Neighbours were closer than expected, but they left mid stay allowing for a serene experience.

Quaint and clean cottage sits on top of a hill and lots of property to roam, views of the lake and amazing sunsets. The sounds of the loons and frogs and birds truly reminded you that you were surrounded by nature. Even showering outdoors was an experience. We brought our inflatable kayaks and it was nice to get out on the water. There’s a new BBQ, a big fire pit and the property really offers you what you’d like to have to enjoy time away from the hustle and bustle of it all. Just as seen in the listing, there is no couch in the livingroom. We moved a daybed from one of the rooms into the livingroom so we could be comfortable visiting together inside when the mosquitos got bad at night. It was a great 2 night getaway. Sandra was responsive and very friendly.

Very lovely location. Large lakeside lot with plenty of seating and lounging areas, some in sun, some in shade. Really excellent views and so peaceful. Generally I would recommend this property based on that alone.The cabin was quite good but really needed cleaning of cobwebs etc. and some insect spray in and out. Facilities inside were reasonable. We had trouble with the toilet not flushing but that problem was resolved with some 'technique coaching' from owner. We waited 30 minutes for that call back, which was a tense time for us.Our problem getting hot water to the outside shower was never really resolved. Cold showers are not my thing. We left a day early.All in all, I think this property has great potential and just needs some better maintenance. I would consider returning if that is done.
