Cozy 2BR Cottage w/ Hot Tub! Walk to the Beach!

AlyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This spot is great if you just want to relax,which is all we wanted.But if you want much more youbou isnt for you. House was quite clean,they have a coffee maker,blender,some spices other guests have probably left behind.They have towels but theyre not bath towels.Small like hair towels & you cant bring them to the water.I would bring your own as this was our biggest pain.For me not as much-im 5'2 but my husbands 5'11 & his towel was soaked just from drying his legs after the hot tub because theyre small&thin.The bed in the front room is VERY creaky & you do hear it all night even just rolling over.They have an awesome projector screen,sound is a bit tricky but its a cool experience.Not fully fenced but still quite private.Its about a 10 minute walk to the water,Bring water toys! People are generally nice & say morning but a confederate flag in the area which made us feel a bit ick.Theres 1 general store,1 pub,1 gas station &2 parks& thats it so supply before arrival!Wonderful Stay!!

Scandinavian-Inspired Sommerhus

KarenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place. The hosts are wonderful. The layout of the home really lends to gathering with loved ones and this is exactly how the host designed it. My mother-in-law suggested we all have dinner at the cottage and we did. My husband and I love to cook. This is one of the few places I’ve stayed that has aprons in really good handmaids as well as sharp knives. If you’d like to cook in or grill and like being surrounded by beautiful trees and have access to a deep bathtub, then stay here! My husband and I visited family that we don’t get to see too often. This was a lovely place to do that and we plan on telling our other family members about it!

Douglas Beach house " cottage" .

MiaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Not only is this home luxurious and immaculate, it is a nourishing step back in time where everything is hand-made, lovingly curated, and generously shared. I can’t recommend this little cottage enough. And if you’re blessed enough to walk the gardens, well…delightful doesn’t even come close. I really recommend this stay for a family or anyone looking to slow down and savour a beautiful time.

Julie's place was everything and more! Julie has such a beautiful space. We made use of the kayaks on site, campfire, bathrobes, gas fire, bbq, and the sauna! The property is steps away from the lake. Beautiful sunsets as well as elk walking in the park at night. We had such an amazing time and Julie was beyond accomodating. Highly recommend!

LisaRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This is a stunning, restful, get away! Would have liked to stay many days. As a horse person I absolutely loved being around them. Bonus to have a piano to play! Comfortable beds, fully functional kitchen and nice to have additional half bathroom. We sat out on the deck in the evening to enjoy the night sky. Attentive hosts. Highly recommend. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Oceanside Cottage In The Trees

Michael was quick to respond to my requests. Behind the cottage it is beautiful and would have been nice to enjoy except for the weather when we were there. I would have loved to dine outside. You can walk to downtown and there is a bakery and small grocery across the street. Very convenient for 2 people.

Tranquility Cottage

MarikaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Cozy stay :) Jason gave us a heads up that the power in the town was out several hours before our arrival and provided us with updates every hour. He gave us the opportunity to change our plans if needed. We are happy we ended up deciding to still come because the power came back very shortly after arriving. The house heated back up quickly and we had a wonderful time going to some of the places Jason recommended.

The Hygge - cozy togetherness

RachelRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The Hygge is a peaceful gem! The neighbourhood of cottages is so quaint and picturesque! As soon as you walk in the doors the smell is lovely and the design is beautiful! Comfy beds, soft linens and towels. We loved the long kitchen table, the yoga mats to use, the sound of the river coming from the backyard! I could go on! We had a lovely stay!

Cabin #2 Maple Ridge Cottages

IsabellaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Lovely stay at Maple Ridge Cottages, cute little cozy space to hangout by the lake. This would be the perfect place in the summer while you can jump into the lake and use the provided water equipment (canoe, paddle-boards) enjoyed the wood burning fireplace at night and cooked our own meals on the BBQ. Only a short driving distance to town.
