Guest Comments

"Beautiful setting with everything provided - full kitchen with all amenities - 2 updated and spotless bathrooms - new BBQ -games and maps and firewood ... everything! We loved the rustic look, but with all modern conveniences - deck along front of cottage was perfect, with 3 patio door access. Everything worked (dishwasher, stereo, windows, etc!) Very private but not far from LCBO and bakery :) It was actually more expensive than we had originally planned for, but it was so nice we would certainly consider renting again. Owners called to make sure we arrived and all was well, but didn't bother us at all. We felt very welcomed in their lovely cottage!

"We greatly enjoyed our stay at cottage 681. The cottage was quite roomy and well kept. The fire places made for a nice touch as the week we were there it was quite cool. The cottage was clean and all the amenities as well as the decorations where very up to date and just made for an overall great stay."

F. Scordino

"The inside of the cottage was immaculate. It was very spacious and close to the water. We were extremely pleased with the cottage. The pictures on your website were very true and accurate with no surprises. The owners are very clean and well organized, which was reflected in the cottage inside and out. I would strongly recommend this property to anyone that is interested in renting a cottage in the future."

"The view was spectacular. It was a great layout for anyone with kids because the family room is at the opposite end of all the bedrooms, so for late nights and games nights you won't disturb anyone sleeping. The kitchen had everything we needed. It is close enough to Huntsville that day trips are great. We would rent this cottage again."
