Best Cottage EVER

This is the place to stay. Not only is the cottage itself beyond amazing. It’s modern and updated but still that cottage feel. All the beds were so comfortable (which is super important) The owners made it such a comfortable and pleasant stay and experience. We brought a dog with us and they were so loving and welcoming. There’s a bunkie which is large and perfect for a guest coming for a couple nights. Dock is perfect for swimming, tanning and fishing. Port Carling is 10 mins away to get your shopping and celebrities. All the amenities you need!! I have nothing but great things to say. You will not regret your stay here!! We’ll be back for sure!
