The Bickle sisters were very hospitable and I was able to do an early check in to set up everything before coming back to the cottage with my husband. The location was perfect bc it was 1 hour outside of the gta. The cottage was very clean and love the decor in the home. You can really feel the amount of love that’s put into their cottage. It was great that we were able to have a fire outside in the month of January and during the day walked outside on the frozen lake. I’m sure we will be back again.

The cottage was clean & well equipped - beds were made up and there were soft, clean sheets on the beds and plenty of bath towels. We brought our own beach towels to use outside. Kitchen had most cooking utensils and some basic spices, food wrap/foil, and small appliances we needed to prepare meals. The cottage is hooked up to a septic & has well water so be aware that water conservation is necessary. We bought a couple of large water jugs to go on the water tower dispenser to use for drinking & coffee/tea. We loved that it was right on the lake and we had our own dock to park & tether our small boat to. The lake was shallow but be prepared for a mucky, weedy walk into the water (bring water shoes!). Our 2 grandkids loved fishing off the dock and we're excited to catch little sunfish! Cottage owners, Karen & Laura, were prompt when replying to any questions before and during our one week stay. Overall, we had a wonderful family vacation! ##### Karen C. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen F.

Beautifully rennovated. Perfect for a large group. Already planning to visit again. ##### Emily M. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Terry L. Sep 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy From start to finish our experience at The Bickle Cottage was absolutely fabulous! A friend travelling from out of the country stayed here and I was so excited to share it with my book club, girlfriends! The cottage is so very lovely. The many windows wrapped around the cottage make it incredibly bright. It was immaculately clean, beautifully decorated, and incredibly welcoming. The kitchen/bathrooms were well stocked. We enjoyed sitting outside during the day and evening. We were also lucky enough to be able to swim in September! The hosts were gracious and communication was prompt. The information left for us not only gave a detailed guide to our stay, it shared the history of The Bickle Cottage. This made us feel at home. Our experience was nothing short of BRILLIANT! Looking forward to booking a family stay! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2113d4f-ce2c-431a-ac69-17e279bf6dde-1758128802865.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Terry L.
