Lovely house with lots of fun stuff
WE had a family vacation with 4 children 9-18 years and 6 adults. The place is as described, but one needs to read the description carefully - see next re water access. The access to the water is not easy as it is down a path through rocks and when you get to the water it is all green and slimy with a dock covered in goose poop. We did go kayaking, but swimming etc. is not an option. You can go to other beaches, but the lake had an E.coli outbreak so there was no swimming. An in-ground pool would have made the place super. We also had a tornado which deprived us of power for about 20 hours. Of course, that was not the problem of the owner, although a generator in the country would seem to be a logical idea. The place has many toys and games which would be super in the winter or during inclement weather. We did use most of them. The owner was very approachable and responded quickly to any issues. One suggestion would be more cutlery and sharper knives, although we did use the stone to try and sharpen one Bottom line - other than water access, it is a wonderful place for a family to stay.

We all had such a great time. We definitely would come back again. Somethings need to be upkeep, but other than that the place was perfect for a weekend gathering. Kyla was very responsive with our queries. Thank you very much for sharing your place with us.

A lovely thanksgiving!
With 9 adults and 4 kids under 4 it was going to be a tight squeeze, but this property has plenty of room, plenty to do, and plenty of storage for all that food! We had a wonderful time exploring the area close by (wonderful coffee shop, Recess, gorgeous lake walks, and lots of local goodies!), taking the kayaks out on the lake, playing arcade games, and definitely not fighting over the massage chair.

Loved the place…. We plan to come here every year!!

Beautiful Property
The property is as described, it worked really well for our family gathering. We had ages 3 to 50 and offered something for everyone. The property is well thought out and we were not on top of each other- lots and lots of space and situated in a very quiet location. The communication was great, we had a few glitches but the owner was very prompt. Definitely, something other families should consider next time looking to rent for a family/friend gathering. My rating for cleanliness was lower because of the cleaning service, not reflective on the property owner and the property management was prompt in their response- did not impact quality of stay.

Awesome property
Awesome property, lots of privacy(no close neighbors. Beautiful home, not a cottage, with lots of activities to do, we went during the winter time so can’t wait to try it out during the summer days, and enjoy the waterfront! Pictures are nice but I do agree that it’s even better in person! Maybe the only negative comment that I have is that, there’s missing a few items for the kitchen cooking(salt and pepper comes to mind) and that we couldn’t use the swim spa, but I should’ve asked first if it was open during winter use 👍🏻👍🏻. 👌👌

The Fun House
This was a wonderful property for our family reunion! There were 13 of us, but there was plenty of room for everyone and countless activities inside and out! The setting for the house- up on the hill overlooking the lake, was breathtaking! The fall colours added to the charm. Breakfast on the covered porch overlooking the lake, was absolutely incredible. The hot tub was wonderful and the massage chair was very popular. Overall, it was a great facility, perfect for a group and a very relaxing setting!

Great stay!
The place was fantastic! Even nicer than the pictures. We had a great time and would definitely stay again. A hot tub/sauna is going in which took up some yard space, and wasn't ready yet, but I am sure it will be even nicer when finished.
