This was the most relaxing and perfect long weekend we could have asked for! No mosquitos this Labour Day long weekend, and warm enough to enjoy the water, which was so clear and beautiful. We struggled to make a campfire and the property manager James kindly helped us and brought over firewood. Would recommend the loon, and hope to return soon!

The cottage was lovely. Water pressure was fine. Unfortunately the hot water smelled of sulfur but that is also a natural occurrence with a well in the shoals but it was unpleasant while washing dishes and showering. I would stay again even with that. The lake is great and it was great to get away from light pollution and see a couple meteors.

The property location was great. We loved the lake access and kayaks and canoes. I only experineced 2 issues: 1)the water had a strong sulpher/egg smell that would not go away, even after running the water. 2) there was pet hair on the living room couch pillows. It was easy to just move the pillows, but there was no fixing the water. Other than that, the place was as pictured and overall we had a pleasant stay.

The host was responsive, the property nice, and we loved the easy access to canoes. There were a few issues however. The microwave barely worked and kept shorting making it difficult to heat up food for the kid. The other issue is that the sheets on one of the beds smelled strongly of stinky feet. We notified the host and they helped us get fresh sheets quickly which was appreciated.

Our stay was okay overall. Id rate it a 7/10. The property has potential but there are a number of things that need improvement.Pros:The view of the water is beautiful.The dock is in good condition and the kayaks/canoe were great to have access to (though they’re shared and not labeled).The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed.Gas BBQ worked (though tricky to light).Towels were provided.Cons:The biggest issue was the water — it smelled strongly (like sulfur/eggs) and was brown from the start. The host did send someone to clean the tank, which helped for a day, but the problem quickly came back, making the water basically unusable.The stairs down to the water are very old and worn, and directly at the bottom there’s an uneven rock that feels like a tripping hazard. A ramp or repair would make it much safer.The fire pit area by the water hasn’t been landscaped, so it’s surrounded by bushes and weeds, making it uninviting.The upper deck only had two iron chairs (no cushions), so it wasn’t very comfortable to sit outside.The bedrooms are very small — the queen beds are nice, but there’s little space to move around or store belongings.Overall, it’s a decent spot if you want a nice view and water access, but the water issue and lack of comfort in certain areas made the stay less enjoyable than we’d hoped. I wouldn’t recommend it for family’s with young kids. It’s for adults in my opinion in terms of safety.

The Loon in October

Our stay at the Loon cottage was just simply fantastic! The cottage is located on a beautiful serene lake and has so many windows - you just can’t stop admiring its beauty. We went kayaking and canoeing - the equipment is perfect - lots of safety vests and paddles in the little shed. The cottage was super clean and so cozy - the fireplace heats up the place so nicely. The kitchen is well equipped. Nice modern bathroom with a wonderful shower. Although the bedrooms are snug (no dressers) we brought door hooks and hangers to hang our clothes and towels… and that worked out just great! We had great weather for the whole week - so we were able to sit on the beautiful balcony and enjoy the sun and views. We even had a BBQ one night - the BBQ might need an upgrade - as the burners are not as efficient as they could be. The host checked in on us (via email) which was appreciated - Henry is very efficient in answering any queries and he does it promptly!!! We are left with wonderful memories and gratitude that we were able to spend a week at the Loon cottage 😊.

Nice little cottage

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The location is very nice - the Tea Lake looks small on the map, but it was actually a decent size. The cottage is literally next to the small waterway linking Tea Lake to the neighboring lakes. There was a nice selection of canoes and kayaks, as well as pedal boats. Surprisingly both canoes were able to fit all 3 of us. They were a bit on the small side and a bit wobbly, but still manageable. It was also the first time we tried kayaking - it wasn’t nearly as scary as we thought it would be. I think most of the kayaks were of the beginner kind, since they seemed very stable and sturdy. We brought our own life jackets, but the place had plenty of these - they looked relatively new and there was a good selection for different age groups and sizes. Boats and equipment were shared among the 3 Tea Lake cottages owned by the same person, but we didn’t have any problems - things were available when we needed them. The cottage itself is very small, but has pretty much everything that you may need. The TV is big and comes with a Netflix account, although we just used the Apple TV we brought with us. The second bedroom is very tight - there is just enough space for the bed, and that’s it. Neither of the bedrooms had a dresser, just some hooks on the wall. The fact that the couch could be transformed into a bed (it’s a futon) was a nice bonus. The washroom is very small, which was evident from the photos, but pretty clean and somewhat renovated. It could do with some hooks on the walls for hanging towels and clothes. The biggest problem we had was the shower. The size is very small - barely enough for one person to stand there, almost touching the walls. But what made it almost unusable was the lack of proper drainage - there were four tiny slits in the middle and they were not nearly enough to drain the water when taking a shower. As a result, the water started accumulating immediately, making you stand in the dirty water as well as having to get out of the shower ASAP or switch off the water while you shampooed your hair. We notified the owner about this, and he said he will get it checked out, but it seems a design flaw, maybe an intentional one? There were two AC wall units, one very old and noisy. But the other one was able to cool the whole place. BBQ was pretty basic, needing a lighter, but functional. Neighbours, who arrived on a Friday, were very noisy and hogged the shared dock most of the day.
