"The hotel was clean, quiet, well designed and convenient. Our family of 4 adults enjoyed the 2 queen size beds and quiet stay. The AC in the wall was pointed directly at the beds and it was blowing quite hard but we turned it off and slept fine. Would recommend and would stay there again."

Large farmhouse style cottage located on three acres of waterfront property.

Large farmhouse style cottage located on three acres of waterfront property.

10/10 Excellent
"This was our second summer staying here, that probably says it all, and we’d happily come back again.The cottage was spotless, the beds are really comfortable, and the kitchen has everything you need. Having the kayaks, paddles, firewood and BBQ all ready to go made it easy to settle in and enjoy our holiday.We loved spending time on the deck and in the gazebo, taking in the beautiful lake views and the peace and quiet. It really is the perfect place to slow down.The host was always friendly, quick to respond and easy to get hold of if we had a question.A couple of things future guests might like to know: the water is shallow and a little muddy near the shore before becoming firmer underfoot. A wonderful cottage and a great base for exploring the Sault and Lake Superior. We already hope to be back again."
