Guest Comments

"The cottage grounds were a joy for the whole family. We played frisbee and catch, we swam and read on the dock. Our dog never tired of chasing squirrels and our daughter had hours of fun in the sand. Once again we were not disappointed with the accuracy and thoroughness of your cottage listings. We felt the cottage was exactly as portrayed and enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks again for another great experience."

"We enjoyed the fact that there was lots of land, beachfront and the ability for my dog to run around. Our dog is a big part of our family and finding a cottage that will allow her to run around in the open space was perfect - - we finally had a vacation that included all of our family memebers, including our dog."

“I wanted to thank you for suggesting the cottage that you did. It couldn’t have suited our needs better! It was large enough to accommodate all of us easily and the location was such that we didn’t need to fret too much about the little ones going near water or a busy road. We even made friends with a friendly neighbour – a racoon that ate marshmallows out of our hand. Thank you again for your assistance and great communication throughout the search and booking process.

"We have just returned from wonderful Farlain Lake. Keys are in the mail to you already. We enjoyed ourselves immensely & would like to know if it would be possible to rent the same cottage again next summer. Please let the owners know that they have a little piece of heaven up there. I'm sure they know already. Thanks a lot!"

S. Friedman

The size of the cottage and surrounding property was a treat. Perfect for families with small kids, since we didn't have to worry about them being too close to the water. I told you this on the phone, but I just wanted to say it again. You have the best website out there. I chose a cottage on your site purely because of the ease of use, complete details, great pictures, and friendly interface. I have recommended your website to several friends."

“We enjoyed the property that the cottage was on......a nice distance from the water as we all had young children. We also enjoyed the fact that the cottage was only a 45 minute drive from our house.”

"The website photos were very accurate - even better in person. A perfect setting for our family vacation. There was something for everyone of all ages. The weather was perfect, the water was beautiful and we all had a wonderful time - wish it didn't have to end!"
