Timber Frame Log Cottage, across from the French River, great for big families

10/10 Excellent
"We had a lovely time at the log cabin. The details in the cabin are absolutely stunning. The setting of the property is beautiful. We were there with six couples to enjoy some hiking in Killarney. We were able to come home and cook a nice meal at the cabin and each have our own bed to sleep. The cooking facilities in the kitchen are wonderful and easy to use everything is there that you would think you would need place settings for 12 so we could all sit at the table together. We are able to play games at the table and then go for a sauna in the evening and sit by the fire table and relax thanks to Tom and Trish for a quick response to any questions that we might’ve had. We would highly recommend."

8/10 Good
"We had a wonderful stay at the Byng Inlet cottage. Everything was very clean, and the hosts were responsive with questions and very accommodating to us (thank you C and Z!), very nice folks. The view from the deck and the access to the water was great, we loved using the kayaks and playing horseshoes. Our only "complaint" was that the bedding (pillow/duvet/sheet) needs an upgrade- but overall we loved it and would book again, it was a really relaxing getaway and we enjoyed having quick access to some of the provincial parks too. Beautiful spot, thanks for letting us stay! :)"

"The quiet cabin was comfortable and great for our one night stay. If we had needed to stay longer, we would have needed more information to turn on the light in the kitchen. Not sure how to use the shower as well. The listing should tell people that they do not need to bring their own sheets and blankets."
