Great host. Very accommodating. We had a bachelor party there with 15 people and it there were no issues was space or privacy. The location was great. On the water and close to town. Would definitely book again.
Modern cottage which comfortably slept all 16 of us. Swimming off the dock, and from the small personal beach was great on the hot summer days.
One of the best features was the garage style door which opens up to the large upstairs patio.
The next door neighbor lot is fairly close (shared driveway) but they were not there during our stay.
The property has everything you need and the host does everything to make your stay as welcoming as possible.
You have to be aware the parking is tight but with cooperation from the neighbouring cottage and yourself it works fine.
The dock is large and can handle a few boats but the water get shallow pretty fast.( end of dock 5 feet or 1.5M)
There are plenty of supplies but we ran short of paper towels and just went and got some.
There are some renovations happening now but don't interfere with stay.
Our family is hoping to rebook for next year.

Great setting, poor communication and customer service
CONS: Too close to highway. Cleaning staff wasn't finished over an hour after check in time. Not enough towels or toilet paper--owner arrived with these supplies later. Bedding was damp, so we had to dry everything when we arrived. Had to figure things out because there were no instructions for stove, tv, garage door or recycling.The fridge leaked, the doors don't close properly. Dishwasher had an odor, so we washed dishes by hand. Water collects at the edge of the deck even when it's not raining. The stairs from the deck are weathered and in need of repair. Only 1 adult kayak (the others are for kids) and 2 paddles. The SUP was not useable. All of the water gear was grimy and soiled and needed to be cleaned before we felt comfortable using it. We had to rig bungy cords to secure the inflated trampoline to the dock. Parking was tight for 6 vehicles. I was not informed that the owner would be staying in a unit at the back of the house doing work around the property over the weekend. Owner complained about our 10:40 departure even though, two months before, the owner agreed to an 11:00 checkout. On the drive home, the owner called and blamed us for cleaning staff's inability to close the garage door, which worked just fine throughout our stay.
PROS: Gorgeous lake and view. Garage door feature provides beautiful vista. Large, spacious cottage and deck. Nicely furnished, plenty of table space for meals. Big kitchen, updated bathrooms. Dock was great for fishing, swimming, yoga.
We booked this cottage for our wedding weekend and had many specific conversations the host beforehand ensure everything went smoothly. When we got there, the host was cleaning for an additional 2 hours after our check in time. We were also promised the entire cottage, but had to convince the host to let us use a âclosedâ section- which they are clearly using for personal use, and locked the bathroom so we couldnât use it. This was extremely stressful and lead to many tears as we had a lot to do in a short amount of time. Our pictures and wedding turned out beautiful, but itâs hard to look back on the experience without the difficulties fogging our memories.
