We had a wonderful stay at the lakefront cottage! From the time we booked to the time we left, contact with the owners was simple and easy. Entrance to the cottage was a breeze. Everything was clean and in excellent working order. The homeowners took care of little things such as having shampoo and body wash in each bathroom, a coffee grinder and fresh coffee (along with filters), spices, salt & pepper, plenty of games, extra blankets and duvets. The hot tub was a highlight as were the string lights going down to it! As this was our first time renting a cottage, I'll admit I was a little nervous as you hear so many horror stories, but I was relieved at how attentive the owners were. If your looking for a relaxing getaway on the water, this cottage is for you.

What a gorgeous cabin! It was everything we hoped for! The cabin was comfortable, clean and well furnished. The hot tub with a view was lovely and we loved the jetty with the late afternoon sun and the kayaks for a paddle in this beautiful setting.

The inside of the cottage was excellent, the bathrooms and bedrooms are amazing. We loved the hot tub, The yard is still in need of work, however if l can rebook for a week in 2028, l know it will be done up beautifully. We had so much fun in the lake, we even took the dogs canoeing. Thank god they are small dogs. I want to Thank our hosts for answering our questions promptly.I would recommend this cottage to a party looking for a rustic property, located just minutes from Bancroft.However, they must be aware there are flights of stairs down to the lake, they are study and well lit.Once the yard work, and a bet of outdoor painting is finished, it will be 10 out of 10.I was disappointed with the outside, that was why l felt l was overcharged.Glenda Pollard
