"We had an amazing stay for our girls weekend. The cottage had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing weekend. Laura was an amazing host, as she went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay. We hope to do it again sooner than later."

"We needed a spot halfway between Brockville and Lindsay and this cottage was perfect. Beautifully decorated, very clean and spacious. Very well stocked with everything you need plus a few extra additions as a bonus (medical basket, back-up bathroom accessories, some pantry items). Very responsive and friendly hosts. All in all a wonderful experience. We will definitely stay here again."

"The communication with Andriy was excellent. We recieved a nice detailed note with everything we might need to know about our stay. VRBO had served us this stay when we did a filtered search for places with a hot tub and we saw one in the pictures. When we found the tub empty, we reached out to ask how to set it up, only to be informed that it didn't work. Andriy explained that they had never listed it as an amenity, and generously offered us a partial refund. I was grateful for the sincerity and transparency of the interaction. The place was very clean when we arrived. The sofa is not terribly comfortable, especially as a bed, but it was good enough. The proper bed was super comfy and what a treat it was to wake up to the gorgeous view over the lake. The grey decor felt quite out of place for a lakefront cabin, but the plaid blanket and cushions helped. My one big suggestion for the interior would be lamps: the ceiling full of undimable cool white pot lights was way too bright for my friend and me, and while we did figure out a solution for a comfortable light level, it wasn't great. The kitchen was also well-appointed, other than lacking a ladle, and having a dishwasher was so so appreciated! Finally, the location and setting are truly wonderful. Easy to access, super quiet, gorgeous lake views, animals and their tracks. I would absolutely recommend staying here and as long as you're not expecting cottage vibes, you'll be happy."

"Our family (5 adults, 3 kids and a dog) rented the cottage for New Years Eve! It was amazing! Easy to get to, and had everything we possibly could need! Forest had amazing communication with us and readily available if needed. Our hope is to be able to go back in the summer time.Thank you Forest for renting us your beautiful property! Would highly recommend! "

"Gary met us at the cottage and gave us the grand tour, we had the most incredible scenic weekend away with our family and especially enjoyed the experience of Gary’s telescopes!! We got to see sun spots on the sun and go and explore the dark night reserve! Gary is a very laid back and kind host and we can’t wait to go back!! "

"beautiful waterfront property perfect for a weekend with a group! Rustic vibe but has all amenities you could need for comfort. It’s a cozy spot for a chilly weekend but would also be great for a summer stay. Tony was super responsive whenever we had questions. We will book again!"
