Cottage is just as pictured, nice and bright with great amenities. Lots of space for 2 families to move around. The shallow water was amazing for the kids and having both the sandy beach and the dock was superb. The yard was nice for playing games and running around, complete with a swing set the kids loved ! While we knew we had to bring towels, once thing we didn’t think of was hand towels and tea/dish towels so don’t forget those ! Also if you’re partial to your pillow, bring it. The dryer didn’t work while we were there, which we didn’t know beforehand and the couch was quite dirty and could use a good steam cleaning. ##### Christine S.

This cottage was extremely peaceful with beautiful lake views/sunsets. Small beach area amazing for kids with very shallow water. Comes equipped with boats for exploring Bear Lake. Cottage itself has nice big windows and very comfortable layout for a family or 2 families. Friendly neighbours at nearby cottages. Very remote - 25 min drive to the nearest general store to pick up a few things (we ran out of some basic essentials like paper towel and toilet paper). Though, we liked the remoteness of the cottage in that it was very quiet and peaceful unlike some of the larger lakes in Muskoka. Beware - you need to dispose of your own garbage at the end of your stay. This was not made clear to us and we ended up getting an extra charge after check out. We have already recommended this cottage to friends! ##### Jenna Z. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert H. Feb 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family Weekend Snowmobile Trip The cottage is bright, fairly clean, and the kitchen has a good amount of dishes, pots and pans. The beds are comfortable as well. It would have been nice to have a working dryer for our mitts and hats. We noticed it had been down since October. Also, an area to hang winter clothes and matts to put winter boots on. We didn't want to put our wet gear directly on the floor. Knowing we were coming and we paid a lot of money to stay plus an additional charge for our fur baby which was more than indicated in the information booklet, the roadway and driveway should have been plowed prior to our arrival so we could have accessed the property without getting stuck. You notified us the day of our arrival indicating we needed a 4-wheel drive vehicle to get into the laneway, something you should have pointed out prior to booking. We drove a large powerful truck pulling a 4 place snowmobile trailer. We got stuck and wasted over 3 hours trying to get unstuck. As the owner of an expensive rental property, you should have ensured the access road and driveway was cleared properly. ##### Robert H. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Carmela S.

We had 5 adults and 3 children and there was lots of space. The water is sandy and shallow though much of the lake is full of water lilies so it’s not a lake for swimmers. The kayaks were put to good use. Most importantly, the beds were comfortable. Nothing worse then vacationing on uncomfortable beds. Nick was responsive and provided answers to all questions. The corner store in the nearby small town is one of the best stocked stores I’ve ever seen for a rural location. Amazing vacation! ##### Fiona H.

The lake is very quiet and calm. It is also very shallow, so very suitable for young children. Cottage is clean, modern, comfortable and spacious. Corner store/gas station is a 15 minute drive away, in case you forget to pack something. Overall a very nice stay. ##### John Rene L.
