We were supposed to rent this beautiful property out for the New Year weekend but Covid restrictions ruined our plans. The owner Chris was more than helpful and agreed to refund us back the full amount and did so promptly. He was very gracious and while we didn't get a chance to stay at the cottage, his hospitality will definitely bring us back there again!

Most memorable family vacation! The place accommodated 16 people easily and was spotless. Will definitely return!!

Stayed: July 2019    Submitted: Aug 15, 2019

Great cottage! We were a group of 20 and the cottage was perfect to accommodate all of us. Kitchens were spacious, clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Bedrooms and sofa beds provided enough space options for us all to feel comfortable. Balsam lake is beautiful - too bad we had a couple of days of bad weather, but we still could feel the peacefulness and calmness of the clear water. Very safe, quiet and peaceful neighbourhood. I went for a few early morning jogs to admire the beautiful scenery.
Chris was easily accessible via email and phone and was very helpful in providing all information required. We will definitely go back and we recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a great time by the lake!

This cottage was perfect for me and my friends. We really enjoyed the place and the view that came with it. It had the perfect amount of beds. Chris was extremely helpful and answered every single question I had. He was able to accommodate 18 people and a dog with no problems. I would definitely recommend this cottage to everyone!

Stayed: January 2017    Submitted: Jan 08, 2017

Beautiful cottage! Just like the pictures. Stayed with a large group and had more then enough room. 3 bathrooms and 2 bbq's came in handy. Surprised at how well equipped the kitchens were with dishes and appliances. Beautiful views in the fall! Chris was very kind and helpful and we were able to reach him right away. Everything was in working order. I would recommend this cottage to anyone and all of us can't wait to go back!
