TESTIMONIALS

The week we stayed at the cottage was extremely hot and humid, so my first comment would be that the air conditioning was very much appreciated and enjoyed. In spite of the heat, our three-generation family of fifteen had a great time maximizing the use of the water trampoline, the kayaks and canoe, the many choices of relaxing lawn furnishings, the outdoor eating areas and the fire pit. The inside of the cottage left nothing to be desired. It is well stocked with all the supplies we needed…..all we had to bring was food. We really admired all the cottage-style decor, and would have loved sitting around the fireplace or stove had there been a cool evening. The young people were delighted with the downstairs bedroom that sleeps ten…… it was great for sleeping as well as for hanging out. The huge stock of games, books and dvds provided all the entertainment anyone could ask for. Shanna, the owner, readily addressed a couple of questions and made us feel confident that any concerns would be quickly dealt with. We highly recommend this cottage …. we are already booked for 2022. —Elaine S. (Aug. 2021)

 

Our family of 2 grandparents, 2 daughters and their husbands with 6 grandchildren- 5 months to 8 years spent an amazing week at Andy and Shanna’s cottage. Lots of sleeping area for the kids downstairs;  A lovely breakfast/iunch  bar for the kids; great fishing for pumpkin bass for the rookie fishers off the dock. A fun water trampoline and a water lounger. plenty of room for table games and colouring on the one rainy day we experienced. S’more production around the covered fire pit near the waterfront. All we could ask for. A very well equipped vacation property. —Dave B. (Aug. 2018)

 

We stayed at the Belmont Lake Cottage in August 2017 for a 50th wedding celebration and a 70th birthday. It is a beautiful property with an amazing view of the perfectly-sized lake.  We had the sunrise in the morning and sunsets from our boat at dusk. I have mild mobility issues and while the property is somewhat on a decline to the water I had no troubles using the various stone steps leading up to the cottage. We also had plenty of space to play games that needed a flat spot. One of my family members took the available row boat out to fish each morning. By the end of the week he had caught 28 fish of varying sizes right off the dock! If you’re a large family with lots of kids this really is the perfect cottage. Our kids had a blast being able to all sleep in the same big room together. There’s also plenty of space, indoors and out, to find a spot if you need a break from that large family!

 

All in all, this is a fabulous rental. The owners were never more than a text away if we had any questions or problems. I would highly recommend this property when you’re looking for your next vacation spot. —Tracey (Aug. 2017)
