TESTIMONIAL

This was an absolutely stunning cottage and the experience could not have been better, the owners were lovely, communicative hosts and the cottage was in perfect clean condition. We had an infant with us so the option of air conditioning on super hot days was a blessing. The views are breathtaking. This is by far the best experience we have had renting. —Cheryl M. (Aug. 2020)

 

The cottage had everything we could need and more. The pictures speak for themselves. The cottage was very clean and we felt comfortable and safe staying there given the current Covid situation. The water equipment available to us were terrific, especially for our teenage children.  The owners are exceptional hosts, who replied promptly to our questions. —Sabrina B. (Aug. 2020)

 

We didn’t think it was possible, but the reality was even better than the photos! We had such a wonderful time, the house is beautiful, the grounds are stunning, the walks in the neighbourhood were relaxing, the neighbours were more than friendly, etc. I would highly recommend Cindy’s place to anyone seeking a getaway. We were there with three young children and my mom, so a wide age range, and we felt that the house catered well to each of us. Five stars! —Melissa B. (Mar. 2020) 

 

Stunning property with everything you need for a fun retreat with family or friends. The cottage is spacious, impeccably designed and decorated and on beautiful Chandos Lake. We couldn’t have asked for nicer hosts. Communication with them was super easy – will definitely be back next summer. Highly recommended! —Mike M. (Sep. 2019)

 

This cottage was beautiful inside and out! Very clean and stylish. We had a great time relaxing on the dock enjoying the views on the lake. The cottage was located in a little bay which was perfect for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. This was a great place to go to relax with family and friends. The owners were very quick to respond to any questions and gave us lots of helpful information to make the best of our vacation. Looking forward to our next visit! —Jenny G. (Aug. 2019)
