Clean, comfortable, and well-stocked cabin.

Jackfish Lake Cabins has earned a new regular! We had a wonderful 3-night stay in August. Cabins included a fully-stocked kitchen which we utilized to make two dinners and daily breakfasts, including using the shared outdoor grill (make sure you purchase groceries in advance as nearby stores are limited in selection and hours). Brenda went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Location was convenient for nearby hiking and attractions, and the property was well-lit. Bathroom water pressure and consistent hot water was excellent. We will be back!

Such a unique stay. The cottage was a perfect size for my husband and I. Easy parking for any size vehicle or trailer. We only stayed one night since we were passing through but we would stay again if ever in the area. Kitchenette was perfect. Sitting area inside and out on the deck. Faces the sunset. The owner was so great to talk to. Great stop!

Jackfish Lake Cottages stay

We have enjoyed our stay at the Jackfish Lake Cottages. Our host was very friendly and gave us some chocolates and left pretty flower in a vase in the cottage. Entire cottage was spotless and beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was just right for our short stay and had everything we needed. Bathroom was lovely, plenty of towels and small soaps.

Cozy and clean

I was hesitant to book a small hotel on the highway - but the reviews convinced me to try. It was great and I would do it again! Nicely renovated (happily, no carpet). Super clean with good towels and sheets. Kitchenette had coffee (sugar, pd cream), dish soap, towels, dishes. We were completely happy. It is quiet and beautiful and yes, there is the highway but it was not noisy at night.

We were on our way to Toronto and got to spend only a night at the place as we left very early the next day. The people were very friendly. The place was clean and tidy. But there were a lot of mosquitoes outside and some even got inside the room.
