Paradise!
This is our second stay at the Lake House on Conley Lake and we hope to have many more. The location is magic with a beautiful vista, clean, clear air, the sounds of loons on the lake and most of all the glorious peace and quiet. The no motor rule on the lake is brilliant. Tom and Christina could not be more helpful and accommodating. The cottage is immaculate and well equipped. We love it.

Beautiful lake house!
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely lake house so much! It was like a private oasis. The welcoming basket was so nice. The hosts, Tom and Christina were very easy to work with and answered our every question promptly. The house was immaculate and well stocked. The kitchen is very organized and it was easy to fine everything you need. The beds were all very comfortable. The stairs to the lake provided us some good exercise, but may not be suitable for the elderly. The fishing was amazing right off the dock, we were catching bass and walleye. Kayaks and paddle board were fun. There was a nice fire pit and decks to admire the beautiful view. We enjoyed the loons and humming birds. There was golf nearby and some good restaurants not far. We loved "Just for the Halibut" in Bobcaygeon and the "Bobcaygeon Inn".

Very nice
The cabin itself is lovely, the hummingbirds that came daily were so fun to watch, and the floor to ceiling windows were amazing. The only downfall is the amount of stairs. We saw them when booking but didn’t realize there were quite so many or that steep. It was a major deterrent for being on the water with our boards. Very difficult to get them up and down. But we had a lovely stay.

A Little Piece of Heaven
Combine a pristine, quiet, and calm private lake with decks galore to watch the sunset and a lake house that has everything you need and more, and presto, you have a little piece of heaven. Our stay was with family and we loved the place completely. Our hosts were gracious enough to provide us with a welcome basket filled with local goodies! We didn't want to leave the view and the perfect September weather. The only thing is the fire route road to get to the Lake House is rough and if you have a low car, it might be cause for some concern, other than that, perfection! Thank you for such a great place and we hope to come back!

Heaven!
This cottage was the best we have ever rented in Ontario. The lake was quiet except for the loons. The water was clean and clear. The grounds were lovely with bird and hummingbird feeders, comfortable deck chair, excellent fire pit and above all a stunning view. The cottage met our every need. We have already arranged to rent it in 2022 and 2023.

Wonderful 2-week retreat at the Lake House
Many thanks to Tom and Christina for a peaceful, relaxing, and all around perfect cottage vacation. We loved that the cottage was not on the main road and was lined with trees, which made it feel very private and quiet. We had two babies up at the cottage, and the small, calm lake was perfect for swimming. We particularly loved the paddle boards, kayaks, and lillipad on the water, and trampoline that were provided. The hosts were lovely to communicate with and very responsive and helpful to all questions.

An Absolutely Beautiful Cottage on a Quiet Lake
The Humphries have scored big with a very tranquil, secluded gem! We had an amazing week at this beautiful cottage that is tucked into the woods and had amazing views of the lake. It was clean, tidy and very well maintained. The cottage is well stocked and had everything we needed (and more). The kids had a great time with all of the board games, kayaks, floating mats and toys. An amazing surprise was the amount of fish (some very big!) the kids could catch just off the dock and in the fishing boat that was supplied. We also enjoyed heading to the nearby dairy for ice cream a few times. Thank you to the Humphries for allowing us to stay here and making it a great summer vacation. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
