It’s everything we envisioned it to be. We took our boat and was able to dock it there all weekend. Great fishing and a quiet neighborhood right on the water. The house was great, had everything you would need for a weekend or a longer trip. Great amenities lots of games and plenty of room for a family. Even had a washer and dryer which was nice! You get guest passes for all that Canadian lakes has to offer. Will definitely be coming back and bringing the rest of the family! Thank you having us can’t wait to come back 😊 ##### Bridget W.

Paid extra to have the pontoon for the day Saturday (owners had to drive out to deliver keys) went to take an evening cruise and the boat would just die every time we started it up. If the water was not so slimy and murky we could have swam or floated in it (hence the need for the boat) Also, just a tip….you SHOULD NOT show up unexpectedly. ##### Sharon T.

But we were very disappointed because they charged us 100 USD for cleaning fees and the house was not clean especially both bathrooms. You can see in the corner and on the floor previous people’s hair and kind of dust. But the kids enjoyed it in general. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d933276-3db1-4c54-afbd-0405788afe8e-1760893910946.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/60de5e04-77cc-4204-b382-e04bf260e44e-1760893912384.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/96126c15-1062-45ef-9a53-d85c71425f04-1760893910779.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Charbel Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan C.
