Summary: We chose Erica's property for several reasons; a main one is that it allowed us to bring our two cats to stay with us, for which we're very grateful! The setting is even nicer than you can tell from the pictures: the driveway is off a quiet country road, and the property has trees and some wetland on each side, separating it from the neighbors. The furniture is comfortable and in good condition. The woodstove helped the living room feel extra cozy when it was cold and rainy out, and the grill worked well. We would have loved to use the very nice looking firepit and sit in the comfy Adirondack chairs on the dock, but the rain lasted all week. Not the owners' fault! The kitchen is very well supplied. Although the cottage has no wifi, we were able to get all of the data we needed to email, read the paper, and play games on our phones. We were concerned when we learned that the cottage has no drinking water, but it wasn't a problem at all. The water is fine for cooking, showers, washing, etc. For drinking, we used a 10-liter jug (purchased locally -- easy to get) with the cottage-supplied pump on top--just like getting water from the fridge at home. The nearest town has a small general store and a hiking trail in the woods. The nearest big town, with supermarkets and restaurants, is a half hour away. There's a trail along the sound, and Algonquin Park is about an hour away. Erica was very responsive and helpful in all communication. We would stay there again.

Summary: Everything was as advertised. Hosts are transparent about the work that still needs to be done to improve the cottage but it had everything we needed - including toys for our young child and our dog.

Summary: I’ve been to Erica’s property several times and it never disappoints. Cozy, comfortable and clean. The kitchen is very well supplied. Hope to return in the future!

Summary: We recently stayed here and it was a truly wonderful experience. The cottage was cozy, clean and well-equipped with all the amenities we needed. The surrounding winter landscape was breathtakingly beautiful and offered endless opportunities for outdoor activities. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive to all our needs, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. We highly recommend this cottage rental to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable winter getaway. Thank you for the amazing stay!

Summary: The cottage does need quite a bit to fix up. The main hand railing is broken and is not safe to use, The lower half of the screen door is bent so it does not close all the way leaving a gap of at least an inch. So we couldn't use it due to the bugs. We did find quite a bit of mouse droppings around the inside of the cottage. The inside of the stove was dirty and we did not want to use it in case of a fire. Some of the cook ware is really worn and had loose handles. We had difficulties getting the BBQ going due to a problem with the regulator. Also the lower section of the BBQ under the burners was completely rotted which could of led to a grease fire. There is little privacy from the neighbors on both sides. The property manager also decided to cut the grass while we were on the back patio. I would expect this be completed in between rentals.

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We don’t normally rent a cottage during the off-season, but this cottage was a wonderful change of pace for us! It was so nice to have a wood burning fire to cozy up near with a good book, and Erica truly thought of everything by supplying firewood, kindling, and lighters. It was really nice to stay somewhere where there is obvious pride of ownership and concern for guest experience. Overall, we highly recommend this cottage for a relaxing stay!

Summary: The cottage was older but fixed up, very clean and nicely furnished. Lots of useful things available to us. No internet or Tb but we didn’t care about that. The lake, however, is super loaded with cottages. We found a portion of it that is still natural and took our boat there twice. Very nice the first time but plagued with jet skis and pontoon boats the second time. Neighbours had a bunch of screaming kids up for the long weekend. Water level was very low and swimming was not great. Nonetheless the property is large (2 acres) and well maintained. Good spot for our doggie to play frisbee, and the fire pit is lovely. I found the ad a little misleading with regard to the lakefront. It’s really very small and crowded in between other properties. But there is a dock that is in pretty good shape where we could tie up our boat. Only about 1 ft of water depth at the end of the dock though. Overall it is a nice place but not the best place for us.

Summary: This property was exactly what the owner said it was. If you forgot anything they had it, location was great, pretty clean and it was very easy to get a hold of home owner if you had any questions. Definitely will be going back. Great if you have kids and a dog.

Sam G. Mar 25, 2021 01:33:33 AM

Summary: Our stay at the cottage was fantastic! The property was extremely clean and very beautifully decorated. Everything that we needed was supplied and easy to find. There is a very helpful book with all the details that you need when you check in. We will definitely return as soon as we can!
