| We had a very relaxing week at this cottage. On the days we chose to venture out we visited Black Duck Cove, Tor Bay beach, a few local general stores, where we found unique items, and beautiful scenic views along our drives.
If you're looking for a relaxing area, this is ideal. Very satisfied with our choice in this cottage rental.
Thank you Connie and Duncan!

| Good, timely communication by e-mail with hosts leading up to our stay. Arrived to find the cabin exceptionally clean and tidy. Hosts came almost immediately when we let them know the Wi-Fi was down and fixed the problem, and later delivered dry firewood after a rain, which we unfortunately weren't ultimately able to use because of high winds. Hosts made a great recommendation to visit Black Duck Cove nearby, which turned into a highlight day of our trip. We found them to be a great balance of being available but not intrusive.
Kitchen was nicely appointed with cookware staples and a small selection of dry goods. No range vent or light, so cooking area after dusk was a bit starved of light, but otherwise was fine to work in. Bathroom size was very generous for a cabin of this size. Water pressure was rather low, but not unworkably so - really only reared its head in showers, which just took a percentage longer than we're used to. We found the mattresses acceptable, though the bed frames in particular could have stood to be a bit more sturdy.
Large, well kept lawn with large firepit led down to a rocky beach which was comfortably walkable, though be aware we found the rocks to be incredibly slippery on a damp day. All in all this was a simple, comfortable, affordably priced cabin provided by very friendly people in a beautiful place. If we find ourselves back in the area, we would consider renting this cabin again.

| What a wonderful little cottage. Completely private, with your own waterfront greenspace perfect for games and activities. Loved that there was washer toss available and also kayaks! The cottage was super clean, had all the amenities..fridge, stove, fireplace and stand-up shower. We didn't have any internet service or cell service, however we didn't come there for those things. We came for the view and the privacy. We will be back!

| We just got back from a week at this cottage. My family and I often go on little adventures, and we've seen A LOT of cottages. This one is one of the best we've been to and is among our top 3 for sure! Everything was perfect: from the breathtaking view to the coziness of the cottage, the activities close by to the treasures of the beach a few steps from our doorstep. Duncan has been extraordinary with us, and although I didn't get the chance to meet Connie, she's been nothing but kind and generous through our email exchanges. The reviews attracted me to this cottage, and now I know what previous people were talking about. These folks are legendary human beings! The ones that leave a permanent mark in your heart. I really hope we get to come back soon to enjoy the beauties of your piece of heaven and create more memories with you. Thanks again for everything, especially for our 3 girls, from the bottom of my heart. Alexandra, René, Ophélie, Charlotte & Éliana
