| Another amazing stay! It's a highlight of the year to return each fall to this beautiful, peaceful setting. The cottage is so well kept - clean, very comfortable and thoughtfully maintained by the owners, with everything you need.
From spending time on the beautiful raised deck, to canoeing the lake, or just enjoying the dock offering incredible views across Fairholme Lake. The trip is always relaxing and a great reconnection with nature.
A total gem!
Thank you again, Kristina, for your wonderful service. Already looking forward to next year!

| Spent a relaxing and peaceful week at the cottage. It is well appointed with everything you need for a cottage getaway. The lake is quiet and swimming is easy right off the dock. My family enjoyed kayaking and lounging on the dock. Sitting on the deck at the back of the cottage felt like sitting in a tree house. The view was beautiful. Inside is comfortable and lots of room to gather with an awesome view of the lake.

| Our family had an amazing stay at Kristina's cottage!
The cottage was on a quiet neighbourhood. The place was clean, beautifully decorated and had all the amenities you would need. Check in was smooth.
We loved the waterfront and dock. We spent a lot of time enjoying the watercrafts (kayaks, canoe, paddleboat and row boat) which were easy to access. We swam in the lake and caught plenty of fish right off the dock.
The cottage also had a great fire pit and large deck with a barbecue that got plenty of use.
Kristina was an exceptional host who was very kind and communicative. We would highly recommend this place and would happily return again!

| What a great cottage with all the amenities you could ask for it had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. Quiet and private spot with a large deck, and fishing off the dock was excellent, lots to be caught. We loved the lake for swimming and kayaking. We definitely would return.

| 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.
