| We just returned home from our second fabulous stay. The White Cottage quickly became the first of many family traditions to come for Jeff and I, along with the kids (ages 3, 5 & 7). Jen and Paul have paid such attention to detail and clearly care about making your experience both enjoyable and convenient. The White Cottage is spacious, clean, well equipped and extremely charming.
Morning coffee on the deck or the beautiful dock provided gorgeous views of the sunrise on the Magnetewan River. We took full advantage of the outdoor activities provided by the White's, and especially enjoyed lengthly stints in the kayaks. The kids spent full days outdoors, followed by campfires and games/movie nights before climbing into the bunkbeds.
I can't say enough about the convenience and usability of the kitchen... they have thought of EVERYTHING! We enjoyed a fully equipped set-up. We grilled burgers on the patio barbeque on our first night, managed a roast in the Instant Pot the next, and prepped a full Thanksgiving dinner on our last evening. All appliances are in top-shape and likely better than what we have at home! Slow-cookers and several other appliances and supplies made meal prep SO simple. Fantastic for a family with little ones. You need it - they have it... I love it!
Thanks again, Jen & Paul for another beautiful year at The White Cottage. We are so happy to build beautiful memories here.
Jordana, Jeffy & Kids.

| Jen was very accommodating and communicative host. The cottage is scenic, peaceful, extremely large and well equipped to meet any weekend getaway needs. This lake front property offers privacy and is pet friendly, we would highly recommend it to anyone interested in renting this property. During our stay we were inundated with swarms of mosquitoes, which Jen had given us a heads up about, so bring bug spray, and lots of it!
