The Frontenac: A Lakeside Cabin Retreat with Sauna

The Frontenac is modern waterfront cabin, professionally designed to be more than the traditional cottage. Take in the view of a private bay on Thirty Island Lake as you enjoy hotel-style amenities including a contemporary kitchen & bathroom plus Endy mattresses in every bedroom. The cabin is located on a private and quiet bay, and sound carries across the water, so outdoor music/fireworks/partying/ is not allowed.

A very special place....
As an avid user of home sharing websites, I have learned that the truth is in the review! Trust me when I say, you will not be disappointed by this lovely property. I booked it for a staff retreat for 48 hours of work and play. All attendees were thrilled with the cabin, and took full advantage of the property’s woodland assets and waterfront after our workshops. Micheal responded quickly to all questions, was prompt with our deposit refund, and was a warm and friendly host. The description on the website is entirely accurate, and the images do justice to the beautiful design of the cabin. Our only ask would be for more reading lights! But only for those of you who plan to do actual work or read on your holiday.

Lovely cottage in serene setting
This cottage is great. Down a gravel road and away from the highway so very little traffic passes by. Lake was fabulous for swimming. Loved the deck at the cottage overlooking the lake. Loved star gazing at night

Luxury by the lake
Fantastic home - too nice to be called a "cottage" - by the lake was a pleasure to stay in. My kids and I enjoyed a full week here and were left wanting more...

Great getaway
Great cottage and excellent privacy. We enjoyed the quiet location and the relaxing atmosphere. I really enjoyed paddleboarding around the Bay. The view was great and we got several visits from loons which we enjoyed. I would stay there again.

Beautiful cottage and nice quiet location
We were 6 adults and 4 kids for my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. The cottage was perfect for our gang. We rented a pontoon boat from a nearby marina and with the kayak, canoe, SUP, and great dock, we were able to do all of the paddling, touring, and fishing we wanted. Easy to prepare meals, and great picnic table outside for most meals (seats 10 if some are kids). Nice beds. Decently equipped kitchen. Michael is very responsive. We had one issue that was dealt with by the local property manager within a few hours. We would stay again.

Getaway on the lake
Every year myself and a group of friends look for a cottage to rent for the weekend. We always end up with the same cookie cutter Collingwood cottage. I lucked out when I found Michael's place. A little further east from the GTA but well worth the drive. The Cottage is located directly on the lake and is supplied with a canoe and a kayak. The property was well maintained and spotless. It is decorated with very unique furnishings and has a home away from home feel. I highly recommend paying extra for sauna use, and then after sitting in there for awhile, jump directly into the lake. Micheal, the host was incredible, he was always available to answer questions leading up to and during the trip. We had some issues with the water pressure but Michael was quick to send the property manager over to fix it. Response time was impeccable. We'll definitely be coming back to Godfrey! Thanks again for sharing your place with us!

Beautiful cottage in stunning frontenac
We loved our stay at this cottage! Michael the owner was incredibly helpful with answering questions both before and during our rental period. The cottage is beautiful. I love the modern tiling on the main floor and large wraparound deck outside. The cottage is situated on a very quiet and calm part of Thirty Island Lake. Because its on the bay the lake was quite warm and perfect for swimming with young kids, paddling and even SUP yoga. Coming from Toronto, the cottage is a bit of a drive but our group really appreciated being in a quieter and less busy cottage area. I would highly recommend. Thank you for helping us kick off summer 2019!

Cottage with a beautiful view
A nice cottage space with really neat decor. Beautiful view of the lake. Sauna was a nice bonus. Mike was prompt to respond to questions. Wish it was warmer so that we enjoy the lake and outdoors more.

Amazing
We had an amazing time staying at this beautiful cabin the past 4 days! We were a group of about 13 people and it was the perfect amount of space for us. The cabin design and decor really added to the experience (especially the hammock and swings - we loved them!). The view is also breathtaking. We spent a lot of time on the deck admiring the beautiful and quiet lake (so relaxing). We also had the opportunity to canoe and fish which was a great experience. Micheal was very kind, helpful and easy to communicate with. There’s nothing we would have changed about this trip. Thanks again Michael!

Beautiful Modern Cottage!
This cottage is stunning, the pictures did not disappoint. The cottage is clean, private and we enjoyed all the amenities provided: ie linens, towels. Michael the owner was very responsive to the many questions I had. The only problem we encountered was there was very little propane for us to BBQ our meals so we had to go out and get it refilled (we did get reimbursed for it). My children enjoyed fishing right from the dock; that was definitely the highlight of their trip. We would definitely book again.
