Summary: We would totally recommend staying at Kotare Lodge. We would love to return one day, so close to the reserve. We thank Alysn and Bryan for being so patient with our wedding coming and goings and our two dogs.

sandra g. Oct 23, 2022 06:00:03 PM

Summary: We had a short stay of one night. The property was very clean and tidy, it was the downstairs floor of the building but quite independent. The host, Brian, was very friendly. A bit of a steep drive and really only one way, but we had no issues. There is a lovely view to Christian Bay and the property is very quiet. It is well set up and homely. It was perfect for our purposes.

Summary: Comfortable and clean property. We were a group of four adults and five children and there was plenty of room. Beautiful Anchor bay is ten minutes drive down the road. Christian bay is across the road and where we went fishing. Hosts were very friendly and easy to deal with. Nice view from the property.
