It’s a smaller but cute and comfortable cottage. It was clean and they were very accommodating to us. The hosts were friendly and ready to help. It’s hidden in the trees but not too remote either! With wifi included it was a comfortable stay. We were able to see multiple deers around the property and felt very safe. There was little to no bugs surprisingly! The lake is a 30 second walk where you can enjoy fishing. We were able to catch a couple different bass and it was a huge adrenaline rush. Westpoint is a good little town to walk thru and don’t forget about the many awesome tours Kingston offers less than an hour away! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4d013319-cbc8-4b30-9422-aa7ab0223d45-1757972375450.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Caitlin Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Touchstone Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Touchstone-Resort.h37486278.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Peterborough-Waterfront, ON by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Peterborough-Waterfront.h10806.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn by Marriott Gravenhurst Muskoka Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Gravenhurst-Muskoka-Wharf.h2621805.Hotel-Information) > > [Georgian Bay Hotel Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Hotels-Georgian-Bay-Hotel-Trademark-Collection-By-Wyndham.h1802744.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Resort Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Resort-Inn.h35593974.Hotel-Information) > > [Valhalla Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Thunder-Bay-Hotels-Valhalla-Inn.h25234.Hotel-Information) > > [Benmiller Inn & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh-Hotels-Benmiller-Inn-Spa.h1881763.Hotel-Information) > > [Pickering Casino Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Pickering-Hotels-Pickering-Casino-Resort.h89435702.Hotel-Information) > > [Muskoka Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Muskoka-Bay-Resort.h49036339.Hotel-Information) > > [Deerhurst Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Deerhurst-Resort.h23864.Hotel-Information) > > [Friday Harbour Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Innisfil-Hotels-Friday-Harbour-Resort.h30029681.Hotel-Information) > > [Carriage Ridge Resort, an Ascend Collection Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Oro-Medonte-Hotels-Carriage-Ridge-Hills-Resorts.h1177104.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Thunder Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Thunder-Bay-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Thunder-Bay.h30299129.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Resort Mosaic Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Resort-Mosaic-Suites.h35593864.Hotel-Information) > > [Living Stone Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Hotels-Living-Stone-Golf-Resort.h1590687.Hotel-Information) > > [Fern Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ramara-Hotels-Fern-Resort.h9812529.Hotel-Information) > > [The Water Tower Inn, BW Premier Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sault-Ste-Marie-Hotels-The-Water-Tower-Inn.h20693.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus The Arden Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stratford-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-The-Arden-Park-Hotel.h11525291.Hotel-Information) > > [Horseshoe Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Oro-Medonte-Hotels-Horseshoe-Resort.h41218.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton St. Catharines Niagara Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-St-Catharines-Niagara-Suites.h2609.Hotel-Information) > > [Hidden Valley Resort, an Ascend Collection Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntsville-Hotels-Hidden-Valley-Resort.h23944.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Resort Village Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Resort-Village-Suites.h10940024.Hotel-Information) > > [Superior Inn Hotel and Conference Centre Thunder Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Thunder-Bay-Hotels-Victoria-Inn-Hotel-And-Convention-Centre.h900513.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge by Wyndham Sudbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels-Travelodge-By-Wyndham-Sudbury.h19351.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Sudbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Sudbury.h45671968.Hotel-Information) > > [Hockley Valley Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Mono-Hotels-Hockley-Valley-Resort.h9779402.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Leamington Hotel & Conference Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Leamington-Hotel-Conference-Centre.h19347.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Collingwood by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Orillia-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Collingwood.h52463807.Hotel-Information) > > [Living Water Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Collingwood-Hotels-Living-Water-Resort-And-Spa.h6986293.Hotel-Information) > > [Westin Trillium House, Blue Mountain](https://www.expedia.ca/Owen-Sound-Hotels-Westin-Trillium-House.h1357075.Hotel-Information)
