We had the absolute best weekend ever! We booked Kim’s place for our small wedding and had our families all stay here. It was absolutely perfect for all ages and even though it was rainy there was still so much to do. The beds are extremely comfortable and the cottage is so spacious everyone could spread out when needed. It’s so well equipped with everything you’ll need that you really only need to bring your toothbrush. Kim is extremely responsive and so helpful through everything. We would definitely love to come back in the future. Highly recommend!!

The eight of us and our pets enjoyed a week at this lovely cottage. We appreciated having a place big enough for all of us and where our pets were welcome. Lots of space for everyone to relax. Games and books, comfortable beds, great waterfront with boats and a sauna, and a nice yard for dogs to zoom around. Day trips to Parry Sound and Killbear Provincial Park. Thank you to Kim for renting to us.

I had the most beautiful, perfect wedding weekend thanks to Kim and Whitestone Lakehouse. The house is beautiful and the perfect gathering spot for family and friends. Not only was Kim responsive throughout the weekend when questions arose, she has also been on the ball with any questions I had about the property for almost 2 years now. Unfortunately, given how busy we were all weekend with wedding activities, we didn't have the opportuniuty to fully enjoy all of the available amenities (canoes, kyaks, hot tub, sauna) but I so plan on returning in the future to enjoy all of these perks. Thank you so much for everything!

Amazing Rental
Kimberly was a great and very responsive host. Everything went smoothly and all according to plan. The property was amazing, with great views down towards the lake. The lake was a perfect spot to hang out with plenty of activities; swim platform in the middle of the bay, kayaks and canoes but the best part was the sauna down by the water. This place is a gem of a cottage for large gatherings, we had 18 guys up. Thanks for the hospitality!!

What an amazing cottage and location. Our host was responsive and helpful and they provide an incredible amount of amenities that make your stay ever more comfortable. The cottage itself is well cared for and the grounds are well kept. The lake is a bit of a hike at 500m but they have a beautiful set up with multiple docks and locations to bask in a very private part of the lake. We did find the Sauna tough to use in terms of keeping a consistent fire going. They include a plethora of water toys like paddle boards, kayaks and a canoe. At the main building the hot tub is a little tight for a group but 6 adults can squeeze in. In terms of a private location to enjoy with a group this is such a perfect spot. So many of the “little things” have been thought out and we were very grateful that it was shared for rent.Thank you Kimberley for a great stay at Whitestone lake.

We enjoyed everything the cottage had to offer and made family memories that will last a lifetime.

Amazing Time on Whitestone Lake
This is one of the nicest cottages we have ever stayed at. Beautiful, massive, private, well stocked and appointed.
The lake is equally stunning, and while it’s a short walk from the main cottage, the deck and dock make it easy to spend the entire day there without having to trek back.
Kim was an incredible host, and went out of her way to ensure that our group had everything we needed.
Can’t say enough good things about our stay here.

Great multi-generational family vacation
We gathered multiple generations in our family for a quiet vacation and had a great time. The cottage is as listed and served us well. The early morning view of the lake was amazing. Cooking in the kitchen and shared meals at the dining table were a treat. Lots of common space on the main floor as well as side rooms when a bit of quiet is needed. The waterfront was enjoyed by us all, young and old, though it should be noted it's a bit of a distance from the cottage.
