Wonderful cottage for wonderful weekend

We went up to Vijay and Priya's cottage to have a reunion of old friends and we all loved the place. It's clean, big, well kept, and has all one needs for a cottage weekend. The BBQ and patio was especially nice. The rooms are big and fit easily 9 adults. The couches are super comfortable. The place is easy to find and with the LCBO and grocery store not too far, we were never short of supplies. Highly recommend!

Fantastic cottage!

If you're looking to get some R & R or to hike and explore, your search stops here. The cottage is absolutely gorgeous! It's modern, spacious, private, clean and just a short drive from Toronto. Our host Priya was awesome! She was extremely helpful and responsive. There are lots of lakes nearby where you can go to fish or simply to relax. The nearest grocery store Foodland stays open till 8pm on the weekends which is very convenient. Overall we had an amazing weekend and look forward to staying here in the future.

Great Place for a Cottage Getaway

Drove up there with a bunch of friends for the long weekend. The place was extremely clean and both the interior and exterior are beautiful. The cottage is situated on a big lot with lots of room for outdoor sports and activities. The owners are friendly and are always willing to help you out with any questions you might have. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to getaway for a while with family/friends.
