This is not a 4 season cottage
We stayed for a few days between Christmas and New Years. The place is very small, no big deal. It looked like the whole place had been wiped down with one very dirty cloth. The outside of the fridge was filthy, and there was various spoiling food inside. The counters and floors were so dirty I spent the first hour or so just trying to clean. Bathroom door was broken, and everything just looked old and tired. The kitchen was very poorly stocked, we had to buy a frying pan just to make simple eggs for breakfast. It was also freezing. Since the building is on stilts, the floors are very cold, those of us who brought slippers we ok, but others feet ached right up into their knees. I do not recommend. I cant help but think the other reviews were for a different place.

Blueberry Cottage in the fall
Cottage is lovely, very private, and nicely equipped…except if nighttime temperatures fall below 10 degrees C, when you might bring an extra blanket. Beautiful setting. Enjoyed the wildlife from the deck. Overall, delightful.

Vacation at Blueberry cottage
Cottage is cosy, clean, quiet and comes with a beautiful environment. The river flows quietly by the cottage. It is relaxing to sit on the deck and listen to burbling water. Can't wait to book it again.

Relaxing River Escape
The Blueberry Cottage is set up well for a getaway. It was a bonus to enjoy a morning coffee on the deck while watching a heron on the riverbank catch his breakfast. The location is a perfect as you get the advantage of a cottage but it’s only a 10 minute drive into Almonte to enjoy the town (Riverwalk, restaurants, etc.)

Blueberry Cottage
The place was very clean and you cannot beat the beauty of its location. Great property right on the river. We saw deer, a blue Heron, blue jays and even a cardinal. When we noticed the propane tank on the BBQ was low, the owner made arrangement right away to have another tank delivered. Great service, great location, I would not hesitate to book another stay here.

A Relaxing Retreat
Although the cottage could use some TLC in a few places, it's private, well-equipped and a good jumping-off point for visiting nearby towns. The deck overlooking the river is a great place for wildlife viewing, everything from herons and kingfishers to deer and red squirrels. Steve was very helpful. All in all, a relaxing retreat in pretty surroundings.
