Stayed Jan 25, 2026This is a fantastic property. Very comfortable and very relaxing. This was my first time here in the winter, and there was lots of snow, but that just added to the experience. Made use of the snowshoes and kept warm by the fire. Highly recommended!

Stayed Dec 23, 2025Sherry was very accommodating & HeronRest is exactly as pictured. Clean, tidy, fresh - very cozy. We were surprised that it was decorated for the holidays - very thoughtful and appreciated. Is an honour to stay in a space that was designed as a home - the decor has one of a kind wood work and authentic art pieces.

Stayed Dec 17, 2024BEAUTIFUL place. Long neurotic list of rules about the property upon booking. Email after check out with unfriendly complaints about a dirty coffee cup, we hadn’t done the laundry before leaving. Unpleasant experience overall, would not book again.

Stayed Dec 12, 2024We had an amazing two nights at the sweet Riverside Cottage! The property is idyllic for a getaway in nature with all the comforts of a real house at hand. From the efficient wood stove to the beautiful art and furniture, much of which is hand made by the owners themselves, this place is as harmonious and peaceful as it gets. Adding to the experience was the professional and conscientious host, who really made us feel special and cared for. These folks care about the property and their guests, and it shows! A perfect romantic weekend retreat, or I can imagine an excellent longer stay for artists looking to focus on their craft. I hope to return in the summer to enjoy a dip in the river, marsh mellows at the fire pit, and excellent stargazing right from the deck. Well done!

Stayed Nov 22, 2024We had a wonderful weekend! The weather didn't cooperate, but we went exploring in the rain anyway, and were otherwise very comfortable inside. This is a beautiful property with everything you could want for a weekend getaway. The attention to detail, craftsmanship, art and decor were the icing on the cake. This is a special place.

Stayed Sep 29, 2024Beautiful location, it's a little rrspite from the world, nestled among trees and a babbling brook. Something out of a fairytale. We enjoyed the space, the quiet (maybe a little too quiet... there's no TV), and the surroundings. Do yourself a favor and visit Rissers Beach, which is close by. Our only complaint was the bathroom sink... it's incredibly difficult to use. Otherwise, it's a great location.
