Guest Comments

We loved the privacy, location, cleanliness, amenities, coziness of the cottage. Renting in the future- Absolutely yes!"

S. Coelho

"The pictures were fantastic, we knew right away we had the right place! I really liked the rental package! I'm a 'list' person, so all the info was great. We absolutely loved the waterfront, and the big room with the two double bunks was perfect, as we were sharing the cottage with another family, our family fit nicely in that one room! The cottage had all the little things, you know, like bug spray, and teabags, and books and magazines, and local things to do brochures. Can't say enough how much we enjoyed our week!

I have already told my travel agent about your services, sent her a link! Told all my friends what an awesome internet find this was! Just loved the whole process and the cottage was just perfect."

"Everything was exactly as it was shown. There were no surprises! We loved the deck, where we spent most of our time. We enjoyed the paddle boat and the large well-equipped kitchen. It was nice to have an assortment of games and books already there.

An excellent expreience for us! This was the first time that we rented a cottage and I would certainly recommend your services to others. It was organized and it made our trip less stressful. All the details were taken care of and I really appreciated that! We are already planning next year's rental. Thanks for making it an enjoyable experience."
