Waterfront cottage with great view Reviews

The property is conveniently located, very clean & spacious. The listing did not indicate that 1 bedroom was on a different level of the house. This created a problem for our sleeping arrangements as we were travelling with 2 small children. It would have been better if at least 1 of the bedrooms had 2 single beds to allow more flexible sleeping arrangements. Light sleepers, be aware there is a railway track nearby and the sound of the many trains that pass by day & night with loud horns could be a big problem. While this was part of the "great view", there was no mention of it in the property description which is a considerable oversight. We had some problems with internet & wi-fi connectivity that were resolved but the location of the modem was in an awkward location to access and the resolution required at least 2 separate occasions of modem resets. However, communications with the owner were excellent. The small bath towels provided were almost threadbare and no face cloths were provided, No kitchen towels were provided. Otherwise the kitchen was well equipped. The toilet in the basement suite was loose on its base and was unsuitable for an adult to sit on. The glass on the basement patio door was shattered and taped over: not sure if this compromised security or was evidence of an attempted break-in prior to our stay. The grounds around the property could use some TLC. Due to some of the issues listed above, we probably would not choose this location again.

The house is really lovely and the views are fantastic! So many places to sit (inside and out) to enjoy the views of the water. The house is also an easy walk to restaurants, Trestle brewery, and the Stockey Center. We definitely hope to stay here again the next time we're in Parry Sound!

The view was amazing. Took lots of photos and it was beautiful in anytime of the day but esp the afternoon when the water is still and the trees in the lake banks mirrors in the water!

Arrived at the property Thursday before the August long weekend. The owner and host was very prompt in getting us the location the day we arrived. We arrived to a very clean property! We absolutely loved the property as it was right on a river and quite private and spacious. The property has a ton of space to play games and relax. We spent most of our time on the floating dock, taking swims every 20-30 mins as it was super hot. Hardly any bugs, only at night when we had a camp fire. The property is super close to town so don't worry if you forget anything as you are super close to all stores. All in all great experience and super excited to hopefully go back next year!!!

This cottage has a great location. You have cleared backyard (trees but not too many, so lots of sunshine in the house and few bugs). It is on a river that is wide, so a great dock, clean water (that is deep of the dock) and warmer than most lakes this time of year. There are not motorized boats on the river/lake, which is amazing, so no worry of kids swimming of the dock. Things to know about the cottage, so you come prepared: Bring BeachTowels Bring all water toys (kayak, floaties, etc and life jackets) none provided. Bring a tank of propane (there is a BBQ but no propane) Bring wood (there is a fire pit but no wood to use) Bring Kitchen supplies (mixing bowels, measuring cups, ice trays, kitchen towel, Larger coffee pot (only 5 cup pot provided) Bring bath towels, some provided. Overall, this is a solid property and great for a family of 3 to 4.

Really easy process to get in and owner was quick to respond. Lovely place with a really nice view
