We had a wonderful stay at Dam Cottage. Darcy and his family were very friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. Even guiding us to the location when we got a little lost, which we really appreciated.The cottage is beautifully situated, surrounded by nature and close to the farm, offering a peaceful and authentic countryside experience. There’s also a lovely sense of history about the place, which makes the stay feel extra special.

This is a gorgeous cottage that is perfect for staying with pets. It is basic but very comfortable. Lovely large dam, and bird song in the morning. The biggest plus was the host. Very accommodating and supportive.
8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The place was stunning and very relaxing. The perfect place to get away. The only slight downside is the proximity to the host house, (though they were gracious and welcoming) it was rather close. Otherwise very nice
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
The place is run down and a bit grubby. The wood heater needs attention beside it causes a dwelling fire, because it doesn’t shut down. My wife (5’3” tall) couldn’t reach the light switches. Very poor water pressure. And it’s so close to the pagers house. And’s contrary to the list of amenities, there is no TV. Wifi is only hot spot from your phone. Wayyyy overpriced.
