| A beautiful clean cottage on a lovely lake! Pretty much all the amenities you would need. We loved the 2 huge decks, the assortment of human powered water crafts (2 kayaks, canoe, row boat, and peddle boat) all of which were in great condition. There was even a small sandy beach area for the kids to play. Our young grandkids totally loved the entire stay! The lovely enclosed sunroom came in handy for those buggy nights. Loved the large wooden dining table, and the spacious open concept. We had a perfect week! We had no issues with corresponding with the owners and our deposit was reimbursed in a very timely fashion. We highly recommend this place.

| My friends and I stayed at the Cottage from Sept 29 through Oct. 1 2023. We had most wonderful stay at Kristina's cottage. We fell in love with this cottage. The decor was so amazing and being surrounded by nature was pure magic. The cottage is very spacious,cozy,comfortable and clean. Our days were filled with adventures in the woods, relaxing on the deck with amazing view of the lake, and our evening by the Firepit. Morning and afternoon coffe with the lake view from the deck is breathtaking. It's a place we'll cherish forever. Our only regret is not staying for longer. We will definitely look to book a longer stay next time.. Thank you Kristina for exceptional hospitality,kindness, and wonderful atmosphere you have created.

| I stayed at the cottage from July 8 through 15, 2023. It was exactly what I wanted the cottage experience to be: a beautiful view of the lake from the deck and living and dining room, lots of trees, private, and clean. The kitchen is spacious, the living area is cozy, and the upstairs washroom is big, modern, and clean. We took the canoe and 2 kayaks out on the lake for an hour on a couple of the days, and otherwise just hung out on the dock, on the deck, and in the dining and living room areas, just taking in the relaxing vibe of the surroundings. I would definitely go back. 5 stars!

| We had the most wonderful stay at Kristina's cottage to kick off our summer! The cottage is a perfect mix of feeling modern while still maintaining a cozy, cottage vibe. The inside is immaculate and has absolutely everything you need for your stay. The outside deck offers perfect views of the lake and was our morning spot for breakfast and coffee. We spent the majority of our time on the wonderful lake dock that was perfect for reading in the sun, swimming and enjoying happy hour! The lake itself is beautiful, probably one of the most peaceful and quiet lakes we've stayed on. Our top highlights were daily kayaking to explore the lake and the nightly beaver crossings around 7 pm. One night we were treated to watching the beaver quite close to the dock while he chewed the bark off a branch. We highly recommend this cottage and would love to stay again in the future! Thank you Kristina and family for sharing your little slice of paradise! M & D
