★★★★★
Absolutely stunning property! The hot tub overlooking the lake was our favourite spot — we used it every single night. The dock and beach are perfect for the kids. Christine was incredibly responsive and the whole stay felt effortless. Already looking at dates for next summer.
★★★★★
We brought three families and everyone had their own space — the games room was a massive hit after dinner and the kids basically lived on the dock. The canoe was a great touch. Location is ideal, very private but close to everything in Parry Sound. Highly recommended.
★★★★★
The listing photos don't do it justice — it's even better in person. The south-facing beach gets sun all afternoon and the gradual depth of the water was perfect for our younger children. Beds were exceptionally comfortable and the cottage is spotlessly clean. The coffee machine was a luxurious touch!
★★★★★
We've stayed at many cottages in the Parry Sound area over the years and this one is genuinely exceptional. The privacy, the hot tub, the firepit by the water at night — it just delivers on every front. Communication with the host was the best we've experienced on Airbnb, bar none.
★★★★★
The fall colours on the lake were absolutely breathtaking. We had the whole property to ourselves, soaked in the hot tub every morning with mist on the water and just couldn't believe how peaceful it was. The wood-burning fireplace inside made the evenings cozy and the pool table kept us entertained for hours.
