Guest Comments

"We loved the waterfront, shallow entry. Our children had endless fun splashing around. Everything was easily accessible (equipment, fire pit...). The cottage was very clean, which is important to us.

We would like to tell you that we really enjoyed our stay at this cottage. It met our needs and we made plenty of memories there. Thank- You and we are happy to share our comments to others about your cottage. We are looking forward to our next vacation there."

"The cottage description was accurate. We found it very kid friendly, within the cottage with the fun bunk beds, and outside with the little sandy beach area. This cottage was actually a cottage. We've rented cottages in the past which were like staying in another house. This one was rustic and a little more like 'roughing it'. The fishing was amazing. We rented a boat for the week from Thompson's Marina. Our entire family loves to fish, and everyone had fun catching large-mouth bass, sunfish, perch, one walleye, and a muskie!"

"Cottage was great. Description was bang on. Accomodated 2 families. Flat area for kids to play on. Beach area for kids. No pets allowed. (2 of us are allergic). Close to Bobcaygeon for shopping.

We loved the cottage. The wives definitely would - the water was very warm due to the lake being shallow. It took the kids a while to get used to the weeds. I would definitely recommend to others. Neighbours were very nice. John (north cottage) even took the hubbys and kids out for a tour on the lake in his boat. The welcome fruit basket was a lovely surprise. We lost power from a storm, for 16 hours, however, Josie was kind enough to come down and offer to get us a generator (ended up the power came back on before it arrived). Kids loved the watertoys. Only drag was we tried to rent a SeaDoo from Thompson's and every boat and SeaDoo was in for repairs and didn't get fixed before the week was out. This was unfortunate as we had wanted to surprise the kids and this was the only place that rented.

If you have any cottages with similar features we would love to to hear about them - we had such a great time we are keen to start looking out for a spot for next year's summer vacation. It was a pleasure to deal with Cottagerental.com - everyone we dealt with through email or on the phone was very nice."

"Great pictures that accurately depict the cottage. It has a nice, flat lot with great trees for shade."
