The property owner was very nice. We stayed in a cottage for one night. The surrounding area was excellent. The lake is step away. Picnic table and BBQ grill around the cottage. Lots parking space surrounded by colourful trees. Long hiking trails on the island. The cottage equipped an electric range. We used it to cook breakfast. This is great place to stay.

Loved our stay! We chose this place on our road trip to Georgian bay Ontario on our move from BC and I’m so happy we did! Such a classic rustic style cottage that transports you back to before cottages became modern day houses. The cottage had so many classic cute little touches, a lovely new style picnic table, fire pit and a bbq! Super cute little beach with a dock to swim too and you get to see so many stars at night here such a magical spot! We cannot wait to be back

Rustic and simple cottage (Cottage #1), but lovely property and amazing host Pat. It is important to note that we visited during a cold spell in September (overnight lows around 6 degrees), and the only heat is via a small woodburning stove inside. We arrived late (9:30 pm), so we needed to get a fire going immediately. Note that you will likely have a smoky smell on your belongings - such is the nature of woodburnjng stoves, especially when they initially are getting up to temperature. The cottage is quaint / rustic, but the appliances work well. Hot water is plentiful. The main bed is comfy, but the 2nd bed is soft. The kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans, etc - but make sure you bring your own coffee (and filters) or tea, plus any coffee condiments or other groceries you might want. Due to our late arrival and early departure, we didn't get to enjoy the various offerings of the area. Pat was an excellent and friendly host, and was accommodating to our late arrival. Again, this is quite a rustic experience - especially in cooler weather - but a beautiful location.
