"We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cottage. The host Brent was great and responded in a timely manner to all my queries. Definitely would recommend it to others."

Charming Lakeside Cottage Retreat | Steps to the Water | Peaceful & Private

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a super cute little house. Wrap around deck. Everything you would need for a vacation. Not right on the lake but it was nice because it was within walking distance but private at same time. Bring water shoes no ladder on the dock but that didn’t affect us or our children. We will definitely be staying here again! Neighbour’s are great lots of families if u have kids. Easy entry when first arriving. We brought our dog and they loved it aswell. The host was very easy to get ahold of when needed. One thing to remember take screenshots of passcode and wifi passwords because no service once at the cabin. Can’t wait to visit again!"

"Brent was great to work with. He was prompt in answering any questions we had. The retreat was a very nice start to our Canadian roadtrip. Very peaceful and serene. We were attending the Antigonish Highland Games. The drive to and from the retreat was gorgeous. Coffee on the porch - ah!!!"
