Relaxing and very enjoyable!

This property has everything we needed to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable for my husband and I, our adult daughter, our teenage son and his friends. Right on the lake, we swam, canoed, used the kayaks, fished and sat around the fire almost every night. It’s also a bonus that it’s pet-friendly!!! Our pup LOVED it! The nights were so quiet and the stars were amazing too! Perfect week away from the noise of the GTA.

Friends Cottage Getaway

We had a fantastic stay at Cindy and Will’s cottage! From the moment we booked, they were quick to answer all our questions—even before we arrived—which made planning so much easier.The cottage itself was spotless, well-stocked, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. We spent our days swimming in the lake and our nights playing games on the deck under the stars. The lake access is excellent, especially if you're bringing a boat—it made getting out on the water super convenient.We truly couldn’t have asked for a better spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. Highly recommend, and we’d love to come back!

Amazing!

The hosts were absolutely amazing. The place comes equipped with everything you could possibly need. A perfect spot to sit out on the deck, have a fire and a great swim! Look forward to staying again!

Family of adults getaway

To start, the communication we had with owners Will and Cindy was excellent. Their cottage is on a channel-like area of Whitestone Lake. Any boats or Jet Skis had to slow down in this area, so it was relatively quiet. The decks, stairs and dock are all quite new and well built for accessibility. Inside, the cottage is bright, clean and comfortable.There are ceiling fans in the Queen bedroom and living area. The bunky has a nice sleeping area on the main floor as well as a low ceiling sleeping area up a sturdy ladder. Overall, our family enjoyed our 5 day vacation!

Beautiful location and getaway

My husband and I booked the cottage for a 3 night getaway. The place wash beautiful and clean. Exactly like the photos. We were greeted with a welcome basket and card by the hosts. The view and location was breathtaking. The beds very comfortable. We spent our days on the lake and the evenings by the fire. Highly recommend the cottage and was a pleasure dealing with Will our host.
