| We had the pleasure of renting this lovely cottage for 2-weeks in September. The cottage was very clean, well equipped and very private. Kristina was amazing from the time of booking right through to the end of our stay. Always quick to reply and provided a wealth of knowledge on the surrounding area with things to do, etc. We brought our 2-dogs and our 19 foot boot and enjoyed fishing on the lake. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a little paradise in the north. You won't be disappointed.

Owner response: Kara It was my pleasure having you, Bruce, Cole and Braunn at the cottage last September. I enjoyed our conversations over email and glad I could provide you with some insights on the surrounding area. We love being able to share a little place of paradise with amazing guests like yourselves. I appreciate the lovely review, thank you. We hope to have the two of you back along with the pups. Wishing you all the best Kristina | |

| The hosts have thought of everything you could need. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking tools, good appliances and even a dishwasher, The beds and furniture were super comfy, and the water was so peaceful and clear. I think we one saw one other person on the lake the whole time we were there.
Very clean and in great condition. Really nice upper dock for relaxing, and fun lower floating dock for jumping and swimming!

Owner response: Melissa Thank you for the wonderful review. I agree Fairholme Lake is the perfect spot to unwind from the city, it is super quiet and relaxing. At times it feels like you have the entire lake to yourself. Thank you for leaving the cottage super clean, it was nice to come home and not have to clean at the start of our family vacation. I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, we would love to have you back. Kristina | |

| We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Hay's cottage on Fairholme Lake! With four adults, four kids and two dogs we had more than enough room. The cottage is very well stocked with everything needed in a vacation property. Our favourite spots were the screened-in porch, the large dock on a quiet bay, and the rock across the lake that is perfect for jumping. It's conveniently located 25 mins east of Parry Sound and 5 mins from either McKellar or Dunchurch. Both hamlets have Kawartha ice cream shops. Try the Muskoka Mocha or the Blueberry Treasure! FYI... Dunchurch also has a free water jug refill station at the community centre.

Owner response: Andrea Thanks for the positive reviews. I'm glad you found the roap at the jumping rock across the lake, it is so much fun for the kids. The refill water station in Dunchurch is new this year, so I 'm glad you were able to utilize it. And yes ice cream in Dunchurch and Mckellar is a perfect spot to bring the kids too. Sounds like you had a fantastic week. Looking forward to having you back again. All the best. Kristina | |

| Happy Weekend,
We had a very memorable stay, even in cold ( but sunny) weather in this very nice cottage!
Good access, nicely wooded surroundings, the cottage has great views over the lake and is situated on the cliff over the water. Lots of places to sit outside, either on the veranda to have a view or down by the water on really large dock.
Cottage itself is very nicely decorated, very clean and bright with all and beyond supplies required! Great place overall, we would gladly come back!

| Beautiful cottage on a quiet lake. Very serene and relaxing. We loved the screened in porch, and dinners outside on the deck. The dock is a great size, great for swimming and cooling off on hot days.
