Aug 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spectacular Property This lake house is as close to perfection as it gets! I stayed there for 3 weeks and had friends and family come and go as this lake house is only an hour away from Vaughan. The decor was absolutely stunning - a modern farmhouse look and feel. The house was very clean and had all the comforts of home. There were many water toys included - paddle boards, Lilly pad, canoe, kayak. There was a beautiful shaded area with Muskoka chairs and a fire pit sitting above the dock. Plenty of room for 8 people to enjoy. There is an upstairs loft area with bunk beds and a tv area for kids/teens to enjoy while parents hang out downstairs. Finally the hosts were incredible! Peter was very responsive and catered to our every need. Would absolutely recommend this property. We will be returning! ##### Nicole K.
