Our stay was perfect and exactly as described. There was enough room for 6 guests. Kitchen and bedrooms were perfect. There were kayaks, a paddle board, canoe and more for us to use. The location was great, right on the water and close to golf courses. Would most definitely recommend!
Kayaks, canoe, etc. provided a great time on the lake!

Location and property are excellent. This was our third stay. We enjoyed a few upgrade. The cottage is very comfortable (beds and couches). The view from the cottage is so beautiful, it doesn’t matter if you have a rainy day. We loved activities on the lake (swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking).

Great Weekend Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at Ira’s place. It was as advertised. Having use of the canoe was great. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. We spent a great deal of time just sitting outside overlooking the lake. Our dog also enjoyed the experience!

Long weekend getaway

Property and cottage could use a little more attention to maintenance and upkeep: paddle boat was broken as were most of the oars/paddles, most pool noodles were broken or in rough shape, eaves trough leaks over door to kitchen, etc. Despite that, cottage was comfortable inside and we had a great time!

Great stay!

My family and I had a wonderful time at this cottage! It was beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. I will say that I don’t think 7 people would comfortably fit, unless someone was sleeping on the couch. We had 6 people and found it perfect! The host left so many things for us to use, which was so so helpful. The other thing I will say is that it is a little hard to get to. The GPS will take you down the wrong road so just be mindful! Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful family week!

Our family had a wonderful time at this lovely cottage. It was exactly what we expected. It was clean and had everything we needed. Our kids loved the paddle board, canoe and trampoline. They also had the opportunity to fish. Sometimes in the afternoon we’d find them reading in the hammock. We had a couple of rainy days but enjoyed family time inside. The view from the cottage is beautiful. Looking forward to spending another week next year.

End of July Week at Cottage

The cottage is as described, and the main room / kitchen are larger than pics show. One bedroom was small, but the other two are quite generous. Very clean, spacious bathroom. Fantastic views for a quiet week away from the city. The pedal boat was broken when we arrived, but don't use these boats anyhow. Canoe was new and lake was small enough to take a trip around every day. Great property for games/sports. Bonus... being able to watch the Jays on big screen in living room.

Lake Mckechnie

Location is excellent, quiet, picturesque, sun, shade, cool breezes. Water easily accessible, gentle slope, great for kids. We were disappointed the dock was not in place, just lying along the shore. Had to jump to get on it. No way to tie up a boat or the paddleboat. A canoe was advertised but not on site. Accomodations were clean, comfortable and spacious. Building and grounds need care but nothing that I couldn't live with.

Definitely I will be back !

I spend two wonderful weeks in this place! Most of all I liked what I was looking for - silence and the opportunity to relax with my four-legged friends - it's all there! Beautiful nature, short distance to shops(15-20 min. driving), thousands of lakes (for those who love kayaking ). At the beginning of my holiday there were several issues that the property manager quickly resolved. I didn't want to leave!! I plan to come back here next year!

Peaceful retreat

Relaxing and clean property nestled on a peaceful lake. Wonderful morning and evening views from the living room and the deck. The cottage is well equipped and relaxing, indoor and out. It's close enough to the highway and amenities, but tranquil enough you could never tell. Look forward to coming back.

Stressed with the Garbage Disposal

I'm happy with the property but got stressed out with the garbage disposal unclear where to dump, that's why we are delayed in checking out and not happy how my family was approached by the cleaner kind of rude of how she questioned why we have not left the property yet.
