Grandma 100 year old get together

Let me say this property is definitely a piece of art. The view was spectacular. What you see in the ads are exactly how it looks like. We came with 8 seniors + 4 mid age. The master bedroom is on the first floor it was easily accessible by my 100 yr old. The kitchen was well equipped and big enough for food preparation. There is a charcoal and a propane grill side by side so feeding 12 people would not have issue. There are kayak, step boat, board games for entertainment. We brought our tv pad so the senior could watch some Asian news and drama. Yes no worries about the internet it is UNLIMITED. Being at a new big place like this, we had lots of questions i.e. where the AC switch, light, tv hdmi, games etc. Ralph responded very quickly and had a video call to walk thru with us where things are and what to expect. We had a memorable trip. Thanks to Ralph. Thumbs up.

Spectacular northern retreat

We spent 5 wonderful days and 4 nights in this spectacular timber log retreat. It was the perfect place for our family to gather and relax! Everything outlined in the listing was accurate. We were awe struck with the interior design and the kitchen had everything we needed! The outdoor amenities also delivered!! We left feeling refreshed and with great Canadian family memories. Thank you to the owner Ralph who was an excellent host.

3-night stay

We could not have asked for a better cottage experience! The host Ralph and his stepfather Wolfgang are very friendly and responsive. The cottage itself is beautiful with great finishes, every space/room has been well thought out and there are so many activities to do. We thoroughly enjoyed the dock and water activities as well as the fire pit on site. The space is so serene and calming, it's a great escape. I would definitely go back again.

Family Day weekend

We spent our Family Day weekend at this spectacular log home - what place, what a setting! Coming with a large group (12) we had plenty of room and things to do. The property is so lending, whether we spent time outside on the lake trying our luck fishing or hiking or spending time inside cooking in a well stocked kithchen and admiring the view of the lake from inside. Our host was super responsive and accomodating. Highly recommended, its beautiful! cheers
