- "We were pleasantly surprised by the chalet, so confortable and clean. We fell like home.. We will recommand the place" - "Very well-maintained cottage with a lot of attention to detail and exactly as shown in the photos. The cottage had all the essential amenities, comfortable beds and a nice view of the lake. Everything was in working order, plenty of cups, dishes and cutlery, all very nice. Only thing missing was a wooden spoon, had to use chopsticks to make scrambled eggs to not scratch the frying pan. BBQ was conveniently located just outside the side door on a small porch. There is a decently sized fire pit with Muskoka like chairs to sit on, though the grass needed a cut as it was well overgrown. The outside of the cottage is still a work in progress, but there is plenty of space for activities, badminton, frisbee and the likes. There is also a wood picnic bench outside that is great for an outdoor meal during the day. Lake access is very rustic. Need to walk about 7 minutes from the cottage and then there is an unkept, downhill grassy laneway between two private properties that leads you to a small, rocky opening where you can get into the lake for a swim. Not ideal if you have kids with you. Need to ensure you are well stocked as there are no stores close by. The ferry is about a 12-to-15-minute drive from the cottage and to get to Picton is 40-45 minutes at best. Overall, it was a nice cottage getaway and an enjoyable change of pace for a few days from the hustle and bustle of the city. Would recommend Deirdre's cottage to all looking for a calm, quiet and relaxing place to unwind."

ABOUT THE LAKE:
Graham Lake is a shallow lake (2-4m deep) that provides great fishing opportunities (large & smallmouth bass, pike, bluegill, yellow perch, crappie, etc.). The calm water is great for kayaking or an adventure in the covered peddle boat. In winter, the lake will freeze over early and present the opportunity to skate or go ice fishing. There is a public dock located at the west side of the lake, so feel free to bring your boat or jet ski(s). There is plenty of parking at the cottage for your trailer and a dock to tie up to.

- "Perfect place for a family reunion. Lots of space for the kids to play!" - "Family of 12 from grandparents to a 5 month old baby had a great relaxing and restful stay. Recommendations for future guests: 1. If you are into fishing, bring live bates. In one morning, our 10 year old caught 22, beating grandpa's 21, all from their dock. 2. If you are into kayaks and canoes bring your own life jackets. The ones provided onsite are not in great shape. 3. Take a short ferry ride + 8km drive to Picton, for some great eatery, shopping and picking up supplies. 4. AC works great, good water pressure, enough hot water for everyone, amenities were all working and easily usable, host responds to your texts if you have any questions throughout the week. 5. Bring few extra bath towels if you have kids. They provided one bath towel per person (more or less) and it wasn't enough when the kids are covered in sun screen, bug spray, lake water, smores, etc. 6. We visited early August and yet surprisingly not many mosquitos/ bugs. You can actually enjoy the outdoors."

If your looking for a peaceful and relaxing vacation ? This is the place for you. And it also 20 minutes to downtown Kingston.
- "Chris is an exceptional host, displaying clear and prompt communication skills. The cottage is meticulously arranged, making it an ideal spot for family or friends' vacations. It comes fully equipped with all necessary amenities for a delightful week or weekend getaway. The WIFI is both fast and dependable, while the beds provide an incredibly comfortable rest. The kitchen is well-stocked with essentials, including a coffee maker, high-quality pots and pans, and a BBQ grill. The waterfront offers a gently sloping entry into the water, creating a safe and enjoyable environment for various activities. The water's warmth further enhances the experience. To make the most of your time, consider bringing along a paddleboard or kayak, as well as water shoes due to some rocky areas. Such equipment will undoubtedly add to the fun and excitement. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this cottage without reservation. My anticipation for future visits is already high, given the outstanding experience I had during my stay. Warm regards, David"

- "The cottage was a thoughtfully appointed, and lovingly cared-for space, stocked with everything you need, and with a gorgeous deck overlooking the lake. There was plenty to do, as the cottage was close to a walking loop, cycling routes through gorgeous countryside, and some of the best beaches in the province. And when lounging about, there was often an opportunity for a chat with the friendly neighbours. We had an adventure on the first day -- the fridge gave out in sweltering weather -- and Marty and Alex stored our food and went in search of a replacement fridge, which is no small feat in a pandemic. They got us sorted quickly and gifted us a bottle of wine for the inconvenience. We left well rested with good memories and kind thoughts for our gracious hosts. Thank you for a lovely stay, Marty and Alex!"

- "Off the start, Courtney was so quick to respond to any questions I had prior to booking. She went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable with everything. Courtney and Chris were both very welcoming when we arrived. One of the first things we noticed was how clean the cottage was. It had everything we needed in terms of dishes and the bed was very comfortable. There are also fans in every room, which was great for me who hates being hot. It is located on Howe Island, which makes it a nice cottage getaway, but also close enough to Kingston and Gananoque for easy access to museums and restaurants. You do have to take a ferry to get to the island, but they run quite frequently so we never had issues. Unfortunately their boat wasn't working when we were there, so we couldn't take advantage of their offer to take us around. We were also there in May, so a little cold for us to take advantage of the nearby water for a swim. The dogs and cats that live there are very friendly and was a highlight for our 19 month old son. The cottage is on a property with the owners' home and a couple of other cottages. So, if you are looking for something very isolated and private, this wouldn't be it. However, Courtney and Chris are not intrusive at all, and we always enjoyed chatting with them when we saw them. If we ever needed anything, Courtney was very quick to bring it over. Their son would also build our fire every night, which was great! Overall we had a great experience and look forward to going back when we have a chance!"

The Blue Fox Cottage is located directly on the tranquil and majestic Graham Lake. Experience beautiful sunsets like you've never seen before, enjoy your morning coffee on the private dock, go canoeing, and relax in the hot tub or around the fireplace all year round!
With two bedrooms and a large pullout bed, central air conditioning, heating and an indoor fireplace, this 4-season, pet friendly cottage accommodates 6 people comfortably.
The Summer:
The most beautiful time of the year! Although not as quiet as the other seasons due to the surrounding campground - Nothing beats the warm weather, gorgeous sunsets, barbecuing, canoeing, fishing, sitting on the dock and relaxing in the hot tub.
Please note: The lake develops weeds and algae during the hot summer months, which creates undesirable swimming conditions. We always recommend beautiful beaches in the area for guests looking to swim!
The Fall:
September to November offers the best views of the Fall foliage. Spend the warm days on dock and cool nights in the hot tub or by our indoor fireplace.
The Winter:
The cottage is located on a shallow lake, which freezes over very early in the year. This is perfect for skating and ice fishing. Guests can also grab a warm blanket and cozy up by the indoor fireplace. The hot tub is available all year round!
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This cottage is private property located within a quiet and quaint seasonal campground that is operational during the Summer months. If you are looking for complete seclusion, this is not the place for you.
Utilize the comfortable Adirondack chairs on the large private dock while viewing the gorgeous sunset. Relax in our cozy hot tub, around the outdoor fire pit or snuggle up by the indoor fireplace during the colder months!
All guests will have complimentary coffee, tea and welcome snacks all with access to books, board games, smart tv and the canoe.
- "I wanted to take my mom (and her dog) out of the city for a few days. This was a good choice. We picked up some groceries in Brockville (about 15 minutes away) and spent a couple of days here. The place is as described and I had some good communication with Eric who was always happy to help out. Single-floor cottage with a dock, coffee, a well-stocked kitchen, a hot tub, and even a washer-dryer. Mixed in with a campground, it wasn't very private, but nobody minded us."

This well-appointed cottage sits at the water's edge with all-around panoramic views. Wake up to an amazing waterview-morning coffee on the sheltered deck off the master suite, or enjoy the quiet green woodland of the heavily treed property.
Breathe in peace and tranquility at this private waterfront cottage on The Long Reach with easy boat access to Picton and Lake Ontario. Relax on the large waterside patio. Enjoy beautiful sunsets from the floating dock-the base of your water sports (a canoe and 3 kayaks provided). And when evening falls, wind down around the firepit, or just enjoy the powerful, magic space that opens up when the sun disappears, the world becomes silent and the starry sky appears.
The cottage features a spacious kitchen, living/dining room, family room with wet bar, and 2 fireplaces on the main floor. The large master bedroom (King Bed) has a 4-piece ensuite with a large clawfoot tub. Two other bedrooms (Queen, 2 Singles) on the 2nd level feature vaulted ceilings and water views.
For more than six guests, a newly renovated, detached bunkie sleeps 4 on 2 Queen beds (not available in winter) or use 2 rollaways in the family room for a nominal extra cost.
- "We are a family visiting from the UK. We were delighted with this beautiful cottage overlooking the river. The owners have thought of everything to make this extremely spacious and luxurious property a very special holiday for visitors. The hosts were very quick to respond and very accommodating. We shall never forget our amazing visit." - "This house is very nice. It is clean with lots of cozy spots to hangout. Toys and games for the kids and the grown ups. It is a little far from things to do, but it was so relaxing at the house that we didn't mind the drive out. We loved the kayaks."

- "This is a lovely rustic cottage but has all the perks you could want. Excellent view, great deck, well equipped kitchen. Comfy front room. Full bath (although the shower controls were a bit tricky). Bedrooms were as advertised and the loft space was well ventilated if the windows were open. Everyday we noticed the quiet. Lovely. On the downside, the deck could use some repair work, the dock was totally unusable and the trees could use a massive trim (they both block part of the excellent view and contribute to the mosquito problem we had each evening) Overall an excellent 2 weeks."

- "Idyllic gardens and property; and Howe Island is beautiful. The cottage (and amenities) is everything as described, and then some. The water was beautiful." - "First time to the Thousand Islands but have to say that there is a certain charm and beauty to Howe Island. Beautiful, clean and spacious property with a spectacular deck/dock. It was a working type vacation so nothing better than to sit on the dock and watch the ferry and the scenery and gorgeous sunsets while doing a bit of work. Wifi connection was good. Highlights were the breathtaking sunsets, seadooing around the islands and fires at night. Low lights (of which the owner has no control over) was the low water level which made launching the seadoo a challenge and the water was a chilly 64F. These are minor complaints but overall a great time at Morris’ cottage. The owner Morris was great in responding and very friendly and helpful. I would definitely love to go back next year."

- "Very much enjoyed staying on Howe Island overlooking the St. Lawrence River. Very quiet and peaceful setting. Short trip to historic Kingston and Gananoque." - "This was our first VRBO Experience and it was fantastic, Josephine was very responsive and made the whole experience even better than we had imagined. Zoe’s Lagoon is an amazing place to get away from it all. Stargazing, SUP, Kayaking, swimming, multiple fire pits and lounge areas make it a very special place…don’t forget the outdoor shower! I think our only complaint is that the week went by too fast!"
