Enjoyable, relaxing spot
Great house, beautiful spot right on the lake. Kayaks and canoes virtually new and well kept. Great kitchen. Beds and bedrooms comfortable. Much space for family relaxing with terrific views from inside the house. We used the grill and bonfire every night. Walkable to local conservation center. 20 mins to Lakefield for 24 hour grocery and multiple resturants.

A great place to stay and enjoy
The property location and facilities are all excellent for all age groups. We enjoyed our stay. Like most places, there were a few minor repairs to attend to but our list was received positively. We'll know better when we go back the next time. We would recommend this rental highly and we hope to return.

It was awesome. Great location, beautiful house. Everything we needed was there. Only complaints was I thought grass should have been cut but that’s all. Oh and one of bunk beds was reported lumpy. But otherwise, it was marvellous.
