| Thank You Eileen for the use of your beautiful cottage. The lake setting is immaculate, and the cottage provided a beautiful home for a week, far too short by the way! First time experiences for our young grandchildren, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, evenings by the fire, created memories never to be forgotten. Equally so for the adults. With 6 adults and 4 grandchildren, we had lots of room and the comment was made several times "they have thought of everything here". On top of that, 6 days of beautiful weather and the peaceful serenity of the lake. Thank you again, and we most definitely will be visiting in the future.

| We booked Gunter Lake Cottage for our extended family summer vacation. We needed lots of room and this cottage worked perfectly. With 9 kids/young adults in our group this cottage had lots for us to do inside and out. Water activities where everyone had something to do from swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. Fishing was great! We had some rainy weather but that didn't stop the fun indoors, TV, board games and a wi bowling tournament! This cottage is stocked with everything you need and more. Thanks for a great week!!

| Our family of 6 adults and 4 children stayed for a week here. Fabulous time. The kitchen is fully equipped. Having 2 fridges was so good. The beds were comfortable. There was so much for the children to do inside- even played Mario. The screen-in porch allowed us to sit outside in the evening, playing darts, or just chatting/reading. There is a large library of books to choose from during the stay.
Swimming excellent, there is a raft, and kayaks and paddleboards. Everyone loved the paddleboards. We spent a lot of time in the water and at the beach.
This property is well cared for. A cleaning team was included in the price so we didn't have to worry about extra work the day we left. The owner was super helpful and communications were very good.
I would highly recommend this cottage.

| Eileen's cottage is extremely well equipped. They have everything you need for a rainy or sunny day. The lake is quite nice and much bigger than we had expected. I Would definetly come back again. Well worth the 2.5 hour drive from Toronto.
