Nice property, great view
The cottage was nice. Found the doors very noisy to open and close. The whole house awakened every time anyone got up. One of the boats leaks very badly and is not safe to use. Only part of the family could enjoy the lake.

Beautiful and clean!
We had such a great time here! It was so beautiful and clean. They have 2 canoes and 2 paddle boards. We used both. The sauna is heated by fire. Hopefully we can come again.

Great stay!
A lovely cottage with everything you need for a weekend away! Our time there was a bit rainy so we took full advantage of the sauna to keep us busy. There were also board games and cards to play as well! We did run out of toilet paper and dishwasher tabs but Jacqueline was quick to respond and open to feedback! The only thing that would make this cottage better is if the water was closer, although being up on the hill makes for a great view!

Comfy cottage with a Great View
Our group had an amazing time at this comfy cottage. We pretty much had everything we needed for our stay. Made maximum use of the BBQ grill, outdoor bonfire, and sauna, played badminton, and cricket in the outdoor garden space, and used the canoes and paddleboards, etc (one canoe had a small hole so some of us could not use it but for the ones who had a lighter body weight were able to use that as well). We had plenty of kitchen equipment, towels, and games to play at the cottage! The lake was absolutely beautiful (wish it was closer to the cottage), The Water wasn't too cold during our stay so we were able to dip in it and have some fun. Make sure to take bug spray because there were some. The neighbors near the lake were very nice as well and they allowed us to park our car on their property since we only had space for one car. Would highly recommend it for a group and would like to come again during the fall

Wonderful winter weekend
We had a wonderful stay! The rooms are much more spacious than the photos depict; there was plenty of room for the 8 of us. The girls had their own space away from the grown ups, and we could enjoy some quiet time too. The beds are extremely comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean. The location was perfect for us, easy to find and less than 5 minutes to the ski hill. The Eagle Lake store had everything we needed when we ran out. Such a wonderful, well-equipped home. The owner was lovely to deal with as well, always prompt at responding to my questions. I highly recommend checking this space out for a winter getaway.

Amazing Cottage
My family and I had a fantastic time at this cottage. The cottage itself is very spacious and clean. The firepit and sauna are in a great location and the lake is nice for swimming and fishing. It is a bit of a trek down a hill to get to the waterfront. It's a short drive, so if you don't plan on going back and forth to the lake 15 times a day, then it shouldn't be an issue.

Family BIRTHDAY celebration
The property is as in photos. It is very clean and well appointed. The host was very responsive. We stayed for one week. The Eagle Lake market being close by is very helpful. We enjoyed nearby golf, the Wolf Centre and Eagle Lake Beach with the little ones. We had to bring all the gear for the baby. Lots of games and books are available at the cottage and well as beach towels . There is a laundry room. The beachfront and dock is nice with a canoe and paddleboards to enjoy. The only issue is the hike down the hill to the water from the cottage is not for anyone with mobility issues. It includes steep narow stairs and rock steps. We were able to load up our truck and take all the gear down as needed. We did find the local Eagle Lake Beach ( a 4 minute drive ) easier to navigate with the children. All in all a great family week. We think the property would be great in the winter as well.

A forested setting set high on the hill overlooking Eagle Lake.
The property was true to the advertised listing on VRBO. Very private. A large property with amenities required for a vacation., seating areas on two decks, BBQ, fire pit, dock on a Sandy beach with chairs, games, Satellite TV….The home was very well equipped, clean with four bedrooms that were nicely decorated. Supplies were provided for the bathrooms and kitchen as well as the laundry facilities. Jacqueline was very responsive and helpful. A lovely spot!

A great weekend getaway
We loved our weekend getaway. Jacqueline was a great host! The cottage looked just like the pictures. Spacious and very clean. Stocked with so many things to make packing lighter like towels, bedding, bathroom toiletries and more. I would highly recommend — just note for those that may have mobility challenges the walk down to the lake is fairly long and steep in places. There are rock steps to help but it might be easier to drive down if you have a lot to carry.
