Not as advertised
When we got there we instantly noticed the property was worn down. We were told right away that the people before us ruined the hot tub but would be fixed by Wednesday (half our trip) They came and refilled the hot tub but it wasn’t working saying heater issues. The property manager sent someone to fix it and it worked for about 45 min. We then all gave up our hopes for the hot tub. We were extremely disappointed as that was a huge reason we chose this cottage. There were some safety issues a sink hole near the front door, umbrellas tilting over, a rusted out bbq that was disgusting. The carpets in the bed rooms are extremely dirty and fraying making it a tripping hazard. The dryer was not working it had a code 95 on it (property manager came and fixed it). The code for the door was not working (property manager had to change batteries). We tried to make the best of it. The couches in the games room were torn to shreds. The faux leather was all peeled off and only left with fabric strands. It was worse than a frats house. We are hoping to be well compensated for the fact we were unable to use the hot tub at all during our stay. The property manager said the owners should be in contact with us and we are expecting this will happen. We have pictures of everything that I have stated here if anyone wished to see them. Overall we paid over $8000 for less then par. Pros- it was clean, great fishing, lots of water activities. But there were LOTS of cons for us.

Water Issues
Overall, it was a nice stay at a beautiful location. Unfortunately we ran out of water on a few occasions where our children were unable to take a proper shower. The property manager did have a water truck arrive to refill the well, however, we were checking out that day. The kitchen also had some garbage and recycling from the previous guests and all 3 bins in the garage were all full.

Great Place!
Amazing location between Bobcaygeon and Fenelon falls (a little closer to Bobcaygeon) on a quiet road. It was amazing the home came with lots of water craft fun eg canoe, pedal boat and kayaks.. The water isn’t too deep at the docks which made it perfect for the little ones to walk around in and with a total of six kids under the ages of 8 and 6 adults there was no shortage of room for everyone.
