Summer getaway
Drake's Landing was amazing. Very clean and cozy. We especially loved all the water activities that were available. The kayaks and paddleboards were in perfect conditon and available in different sizes. The lake view was simply beautiful. Even on the rainy days we had fun with all the boardgames that were provided. Drake's Landing had everything we needed and more. My family and I had a wonderful time.

Canada Day stay
Cottage very clean, thoughtfully appointed with many activities to entertain any age group. Was great to see teenage kids playing ladder ball. Thanks to the cottage goer who did the Canada Day fireworks. Only thing we missed was bringing a motor for the boat. Fishing on Lake Wasi ended up being a work out :)!

Everything we needed!
My wife and 2 kids (17 months and 3.5 yrs) and I went for 5 days in August 2023. Right from when we booked Joanne was very responsive with every inquiry we had right up to and including when we left. Our biggest concern heading in was how the place would be as far as childproofing went and activities for them as well. I have to say, this place checked all the boxes. We had both our kids roaming around with no problems at all and it was a breeze for my wife and I to enjoy the property without the kids getting into and trouble. If you have kids and you're thinking of staying here, don't even bother bringing outdoor games and toys because they have it all! They have all the fun yard games for adults too. Super clean cottage, good beds, nice bathroom, good firepit. It was also nice to be able to take the kayaks out on the lake. Bbq was in great working condition and we made a lot of use out of it. My family and I wouldn't hesitate to return here in the future. Loved it and we were all sad to have to leave :(

Perfect Family Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at Drake’s Landing. The property comes with everything you could need and more. Wasi Lake is quiet, with minimal boat traffic. Our small children took advantage of the shallow sandy entry into the lake. As a family we passed the time on the water with the kayaks and SUP. We also enjoyed playing both the outdoor games and board games. The cottage is located in close proximity to North Bay so we were able to take in some of the local attractions. This cottage did not disappoint!

Beautiful Property
The property was beautiful and clean. The flat land and shallow shoreline were perfect for our little wiener dog to play and run around. We enjoyed the dock, and some outdoor games that were available, however life jackets were not supplied so we didn't get a chance to enjoy ourselves out on the water. That said, our experience wasn't quite up to the standard we have become used to on VRBO. The 1 roll of toilet paper for 2 people for 4 nights, the absence of lifejackets and being charged for firewood are all things that we have experienced for the first time booking on VRBO. Those things have all been included in past trips. All in all though, we did enjoy ourselves. We just wish we didn't have to put so much thought into packing things like toilet paper and life jackets.

Great family getaway
It was a very great time. I visited the Drake's landing with my mom and 2 kids. It was a quite and peaceful place. And the place was so beautiful in the morning, afternoon and even at night. We had so much fun there. My little girl cried when we left and we will visit here again near future. :)

I rarely go out of my way to leave a bad or good review but holy crap, this cottage was just gorgeous. Pictures don't give it justice. Beyond comfy cozy cottage feel with modern amenities. Brought our 2 dogs, very pet friendly!! Joanne, our host, was extremally accommodatable and helpful with any questions I had. Will definitely be inquiring about staying again! - Phil

Beautiful Cottage.
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Drake's Landing cottage. The cottage was spacious, clean, modern and well stocked. I loved that it was located on a quiet private road. There are neighboring cottages beside you but both were empty when we stayed so we had lots of privacy. We loved the gazebo which offered shade from the hot sun and shelter from the rain so we could be outdoors as much as we wanted. We enjoyed the kayaks and SUP that were available for use. Wasi Lake is a very shallow, quiet lake with very little boat traffic. Perfect for exploring by kayak! All in all, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Drake's Landing!
