We had an amazing stay! The house is beautifully located with a great view of the lake, and we found it to be exceptionally clean and well-equipped for all our catering needs. The host, Kate, was very generous, providing firewood and essential consumables in the kitchen and bathrooms. Using the kayaks was another bonus! Kate was incredibly friendly and responsive.

Our family enjoyed a truly wonderful stay at Kate's home. Communication with Kate was 10/10 and check in was with ease using the lock box. The property was very modern with spacious indoor/outdoor spaces and spotlessly clean. The home contains all amenities and some nice welcoming touches. There is everything needed for the perfect stay. Incredible views of the lake and situated in a quiet bush setting. We enjoyed the walks and paddling on the lake.
