Stunning, Year Round Lakefront Cottage with Hot Tub

We stayed at Mark’s cottage/villa with our adult children and had another awesome holiday. This was our 3rd time renting – first time in the summer. The place is remote, and quiet – excepts for the loons, chipmunks, squirrels and bullfrogs😊 - it was only on the weekend that we heard other people partying on the lake, and even then – they weren’t too rowdy. Its well equipped; squeaky clean gas BBQ, newish appliances and every kitchen tool you could want – if you like to cook. It also comes with kayaks, canoe, rowboat, fishing gear. There is a protected sandy beach and a separate terraced badminton area. Prepare yourself for beautiful sunrises and sunsets over the water – easily enjoyed from the substantial outdoor deck overlooking the lake. Every morning, I disturbed a giant blue heron, and a few non-lethal snakes as I made my way down to the floating dock at the water’s edge. The WiFi is solid, so we could work or WhatApp our friends. The sauna and pool table were well used. The place was clean. And we were well informed, before and during our stay. If you like big screens for movies, the basement has a wonderful home theatre. The mosquitoes can be a problem in June – so bring bug netting if you want to go for long walks through the forested lands surrounding the cottage. Highly recommend. Would definitely return – summer or winter.

Lots of space, everything you need and very clean!

We had such an amazing time at Mark’s cottage! His property had everything you could possibly need to enjoy our time in the woods. The amenities were top notch with access to a sauna, hot tub (which we enjoyed every night!), a fleet of boats, a fire pit, a projector, a bar, and plenty of spots to hang out inside and out. It was equipped with everything we would need indoor as well. It was impeccably clean and had many luxurious features. Mark was very prompt with communication and ensured we had a comfortable stay. We would absolutely return to stay again! Amazing spot for a great price!

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Cichon Cottage for a much needed getaway! We loved the remoteness of it! The cottage itself is spectacular! The outside is beautifully landscaped and designed. And the inside is something else! It’s well laid out and all the extra amenities (hot tub, sauna, pool table, etc…) make it that more awesome. We really liked the zoned stereo/speaker system. I connected my phone to the receiver and I was able to play my music inside and outside on the deck. No need to bring a Bluetooth speaker. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck watching the blue jays fly in and grab peanuts off the rail, seeing the belted kingfishers diving into the water. One morning we woke up and saw a beautiful blue heron strolling along the beach looking for a snack to nosh on. And who doesn’t love hearing the loon call? We also, enjoyed taking the boat out fishing. We caught a few small mouth bass, the biggest being 2 ¼ lbs. Having a camp fire at night, enjoying a beverage and gazing up at the sky to see so many stars was stunning. We also, enjoyed spending time with some friends who joined us for a few days. Good times! The host Mark was a pleasure to deal with. He was easy to communicate with and answered any questions or concerns we had. We will definitely consider renting again in the future and will recommend your cottage to our friends. Thank you Mark & Cheryl for sharing your beautiful cottage with us! We really enjoyed our stay. Cheers, Steve & Jen Moses

We enjoyed a week at this quiet escape at the end of the summer. The cottage is beautiful and was well-equipped for our group of 8 (4 adults, 4 kids). The beach area was great for the kids to play in the water and there was ample shade by the lake - especially in the waterfront hammock. We will definitely consider this cottage for another getaway!
