| What a lovely retreat Lori and Naomi have created! All the living spaces are well defined, thought out and appointed. The photos don't exaggerate the view from throughout the cottage or the amount of room. Perfect for spreading out for some quiet time or gathering for fun and games. Communications and instructions were all very clear and helpful. Really enjoyed our family getaway!

| We had great stay over the Canada Day long weekend.
The house is well supplied with all we needed, and is very clean and beautifully decorated.
We watched the airshow and fireworks right from the dock, very nice experience.
The sunset is also impressive from the living room and dock.

| We stayed here in February for 8 nights, 5 adults & 2 dogs. Great getaway from the city. Owners were very prompt with any responses. We enjoyed long peaceful walks along the Murray canal.The layout provided plenty of space for all to do their own thing. The deck was a bonus for the dogs.The sauna was used daily, ping pong was fun with a view of the bay. We visite the ostrich farm, that was a first. The 2 fireplaces were a plus & made it very cozy on both levels. The puzzle table on the lower level was therapeutic. The beds were very comfortable and the linens were top notch.We felt like kings & queens.

| Accommodation and location were as described, such a gorgeous view. Lots of space for our family which included young children. Lots to do in the surrounding area including a nice park for the little ones just around the corner. House very clean and fully stocked with everything including the nice Weber BBQ. Several areas to spread out, rec room, large deck, nice fire pit area and large dock for some fishing and swimming. Naomi and Lori were great to deal with, always checking in with us to make sure all was OK. Hope to return in the future!

| We had a wonderful stay at the lake house. We travelled as two families, with four adults and four children and it was very spacious and comfortable and location was great to venture out. The cottage was very clean and well equipped with everything you needed for a fun, comfortable stay. The water toys, ping pong table and games were great! We all enjoyed the beautiful dock and being able to sit by the fire. Lori was great with communication and addressing anything we needed. Highly recommend this cottage!
