There were 5 bedrooms upstairs with beautiful views of the lake, and the tv/movie viewing room had a wonderful and comfortable sofa with an oversized television to watch movies. The main living area has a dream kitchen and multiple sitting areas from which to view the lake and read magazines. The Sonos sound system was also a lovely treat.

- "We had tons of fun at Bev and Dave’s modern and clean cottage! Shallow waters were great for our small kids to play in. Thanks for having us!" - "A great location, large property and a really well appointed home. Quiet lake and with lots of privacy but close to everything one needs in Bracebridge." - "My spouse and I rented Bev and David's cottage for 2 weeks, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, comfortable and welcoming, and our hosts were gracious and helpful. We had family and friends come to stay for a few days each, as well as enjoying a week on our own. We didn't see as much wildlife as we were hoping, but peanuts in the shell brought out the resident chipmunk to entertain us! We also sighted two loons, a garter snake, and a gopher. We especially loved being able to relax on the dock, enjoy a swim with our grandchildren in the shallow waters, and have a few short campfires in the evening (until the voracious mosquitos drove us indoors! Luckily, we brought lots of repellent. :-) The weather was mostly fine, with only a few cold, rainy days. Overall, a great vacation spot for us!"

- "My wife and I (and dog Charlie) stayed at the cottage for two weeks and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! Pictures online are accurate and you won't be disappointed if you're looking for a quiet Island getaway. Cottage is beautiful, well-appointed, great deck and two docks - morning sun and coffee and evening sunset both spectacular. We even had a regular hummingbird visitor in the am. Loved kayaking and SUP around the Island. Jane and Drew are great hosts, are next door if anything comes up, and made sure we were well taken care of. Will not hesitate to book it again next summer.

"The place is beautiful and right by the water. You’ll never run out of things to do because board games, paddleboards, and rowboats are available. The place was clean, and we all slept comfortably on the beds."
"What a beautiful cottage this was! With picturesque views of the water, it was so calm and peaceful. Everything was as described and well maintained. Jesse was also a very responsive host. Our family absolutely loved the time we spent here!"
"This is an absolutely wonderful cottage! Everything is exactly as pictured, steps away from the serene lake. There is a canoe, paddleboard, rowboat, and a bunch of swim noodles available, courtesy of the host, which make for some fun daytime activities."
"Beautiful and spacious cottage with a private dock. We spent the days swimming in the lake, using the SUP board, and canoe. The lake water was very clean. The beds were comfortable. We would love to visit again if we go back to the area again."

General Notes:
- While the water is safe for consumption, please note that it is filtered from the lake and may have a slight discolouration. You may prefer to bring your own drinking water.
- We provide all linens, including bath towels. However, it is preferred that you bring your own towels for the hot tub and lake.
- If you have more than 2 pets travelling with you, please let me know what type of pets they are for approval. The pet fee is $25 for any pet in addition to the first two.
Winter:
Please note that road conditions vary in the winter. The municipal roads are plowed & salted however, we still advise that your car should be equipped with snow tires and (preferably) AWD/4x4 during the winter months. The road is manageable with just winter tires but the addition of AWD/4x4 provides extra comfort. We are not responsible if you are unable to get to/from the cottage due to winter road conditions.
Seasonal furniture is put away for the winter months. This includes patio furniture, outdoor firetable, canoe, tin boat and stand-up paddle board.
- "The cottage was beautiful and just as described. Clean and bright. Both the host and property manager were very responsive to any inquiries we might have had. Lots of room for 2 adult couples. The road in is quite the drive, but was nicely plowed, as was the driveway after every snowfall. Highly recommend! Great stay." - "It was a beautiful location and the cottage was cozy modern. We throughly enjoyed our stay. The hot tub was very relaxing and all the amenities were great. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. We will be back !"
