Fantastic place to recharge the batteries
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cottage. The listing is accurate and detailed. The cottage is well appointed with everything one needs for a cottage stay and either Fenelon Falls or Bobcaygeon are just 10 minutes away. We would not hesitate to stay at this location again should we return to this area.

Family getaway
Vicky was a wonderful host and the cottage was better than we had hoped. It was perfect for our family getaway. 10 minutes away from both Bobcaygeon and Fenelon falls with many hidden beaches and shops in the area. We are definitely planning a return trip.

Met with 7 friends we’ve only known through Zoom…all knitters. Had a wonderful stay. Above and beyond fully equipped kitchen, BBQ. Beautiful location. There were a few burnt out lights, but we made it work. Thank you so much for opening up your place to us. Vera & The Flock Ewe Crew

Could not have asked for more
Our group of 12 friends had the best labour day weekend at this cottage. There was enough room for all of us to enjoy together or apart, both indoors and outdoors. The lake was gorgeous, quiet, and super relaxing. So close to Bobcaygeon to pick up a few items we forgot to bring and, more importantly, for the Kawartha ice cream. Vicky was so welcoming and provided us with all the information we needed. BONUS: Cute little ducks and chipmunks throughout the day!

Fabulous Cottage with peaceful views
Right from the start the communications with Vicky were thorough, friendly and prompt. Upon arrival we were thrilled to find the cottage exactly as pictured- large spacious great room and kitchen with comfortable seating everywhere. Love having a separate seating area for the fireplace to snuggle up and read a book on one of the many rainy days. The kitchen is very well equipped and we enjoyed making most of our meals there. The wifi is really great- I have to mention it as both my husband and I were able to work a few days there on video and never had an issue with connectivity or strength. This place feels like a real family cottage. It is cozy, comfortable, rustic and well positioned on the lake. While we were only two of us due to Covid times, we would have had more than enough room for the eight originally planned. We also appreciated that the outdoor furniture was comfortable and sturdy- sitting by the lake as the sun went down was a treat each day. Thank you to Vicky and family for sharing this awesome retreat and we hope to stay again one day. P.s you must get fish and chips from The Corner Fieh and Chips only 8km away!

This property was very beautiful!
We just recently stayed at this beautiful cottage. It was more then we expected. We were looking for a place to relax and unwind with family and that is exactly what we did. Vicky and her husband greeted us when we got there, and showed us around the cottage. It had everything we needed and more. My only regret was not being able to see it during the warm weather. Thank you Vicky for a great weekend!

Great family vacation!
This cottage was everything we needed and more! The pictures online don't do it justice - much bigger than we expected! The two bathrooms were perfect for our group of 8. We never felt cramped. The dock and boat provided hours of fun fishing and just hanging out by the water. Conviently located close to Bobcaygeon making day trips fun and easy. The tv was great - let us keep in the loop with the Raptors! We had a fantastic time! Thanks Vicky and Jim!
