Second trip
It was our second time within two months so that should tell you how the overall experience was. Everything was great again and our host went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly. We are planning to go back in the spring again

Fantastic girls weekend
10 of us rented this cottage for a beautiful relaxing weekend away from the city. The place is absolutely perfect - charming, well-decorated, well-stocked kitchen, fantastic swimming, and comfortable and clean beds. We all had a great time and would certainly rent this property again soon.

4 day getaway
We stayed at Aftabs cottage for 4 nights The cottage is in a great location beautiful scenery and great sunsets. The cottage is in great condition with all the amenities of home and very well stocked in case you forgot to bring something. The ride into town is 10 minutes away which is very convenient for anything that you may want I would go back in a heartbeat and we have already been talking about another trip to Aftabs cottage. Overall just a great experience

Great location with lots of private lakefront and deep clean water off the dock
This rustic cottage is comfortable and has everything you need. The lake is quite busy with motorboats and jet skis, so not always that peaceful. Outdoor shower was a plus as there is only one complete bathroom for 3 bedrooms + the boathouse.

Great rental on Shadow Lake!
Great week! The location - with three sides facing the water - guaranteed a beautiful view, refreshing breeze, and privacy. Lots of action on the lake but we were still able to enjoy the loons, fish, a heron, turtle, and more. Cottage is a little dated but very functional. The owner was friendly and responsive.
