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.

Bear Lake Cottage
Good overall stay. Should have been informed ahead of stay that clothes dryer didn’t work, vents in bathrooms didn’t work, and gas fireplace didn’t work. But nice stay & family really enjoyed the paddle boat & kayaks. Beautiful cottage with lots of windows. It was very spacious & comfortable. When out shopping & returning to cottage actually sighted a baby bear crossing the roaf.

Bear Lake getaway
We had two lovely weeks in this attractive cottage on Bear Lake. The grandkids fished and were delighted by the frogs, toads and hummingbirds they saw. The small beach is perfect for small children.

Just like the pictures
Cottage is beautiful. 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!

Great family getaway!
Overall a great experience. 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.

Pleasant, well appointed cottage on a quiet lake.
We had a very nice stay for a week in June. 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.
