Lakefront Chalet located on 70 private acres of Beautiful Canadian Shield

We had a wonderful week at the cottage. Plenty of room for a large group like ours, 3 generations, small child, teenager, parents and grandparents! I highly recommend this beautiful cottage!Well stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds, the skylights and fireflies were delightful. Those stairs are the only real negative. Once you're down by the dock though, there's a lovely little area to sit and chat by the water. We used the paddleboard and pedal boat, and saw a family of ducks and a lovely green and yellow frog, to the delight of my 7 year old granddaughter. The huge deck and gazebo were natural gathering places. The sound system and TV in bedroom were a definite hit with our teenager on the entertainment side of things. He also, curiously, loved the treadmill and used it every day.Thank you Dan for being a responsive and accommodating host.

Great place to enjoy all day sun on the deck. Cottage layout is great, beautiful fireplace, was clean and fully stocked with cooking equipment. Very quiet area, lake was great with fishing and paddleboating. Not a great swimming area as it is weedy but i believe the water was lower than usual. Would defenitely rent again.

We had a very lovely stay at the cottage.We kept ourselves to the main floor only and made great use of the sunny patio and shaded, screened gazebo. Fire ban was in effect so couldnt comment on the firepit or fireplace. We did not use the hot tub (ya, I know... crazy).The mudroom at the front was great for loading and unloading without letting bugs into the main house. We arrived without a level 2 charging cable, but Dan was great about letting us use his secret plug with our portable Level 1 charger.The kitchen is very well appointed which makes cooking on vacation a joy. Real handy having a fridge that makes ice.The view of the water is lovely and we were able to get out for a paddleboat as well. You also aren't so far away that you can't get into Perth for a day or spend some time in a provincial park. A brewery is also a short drive away, as are gas stations.A few little notes:* The mattress in the room (downstairs) we used was quite firm; maybe try a different room if you need a little more squish in your sleep. * There were waspy bugs and other flying things getting in from ?somewhere? Can't be helped, but we did have to take care of a couple. You are by the lake, after all...* There was no replacement Kleenex and conditioner was empty in the main floor bathroom. Had to steal some from upstairs.* Plan for slow cottage internet. Streaming Samsung TV in the main room served us well for entertainment. They are well stocked with many DVDs/Blurays.Really 4.5!

Dan's place is absolutely beautiful and it accommodated my whole family (7 adults and 1 toddler) comfortably. The area is beautiful and the dock and lake are stunning. It is a smaller lake and there was no traffic on the lake, which was peaceful. Dan was great at communicating and when we didn't have propane in the tank, he did say there was a backup propane canister available. The only feedback is that the listing does mention canoes and kayaks available seasonally, however there wasn't. We did have access to a SUP and a pedal boat, which was great. We would definitely stay there again.
