Sunset Special - Fish/Swim/Relax

Beautiful cottage with nice views. Clean and fully stocked with essentials

Property at the end of a narrow right of way (watch out rounding the final very steep curve into the parking area). A navigation system will not lead you there. You need directions from the owner. The location is pleasing once you find and access the place. Fantastic view, very quiet. You can swim or kayak from the dock. The kitchen is well equipped, comfortable bed and nice linens. No wifi, but an extensive DVD collection and many board games. Did not view lower level.

Great property, great view. Mini market 5-10 driving. Overall very happy with our stay.

Such a nice place if you want to get a short break from your busy life. The place is so peaceful and serene. A complete rest from your hectic schedule. Stephen’s cottage is big and beautiful ! Clean and very much complete with all the amenities. Please do not expect wi-fi, after all you’re supposed to stay in a cottage, get some rest and relax, right? Once in a while, we need to “disconnect” and take a break from our corporate environment, even for only a few days. Stephen also went out of his way advising us to be careful with the slippery stairs since it was raining when we arrived. Stephen’s place is right in front of the beautiful lake. And the best gift is the gorgeous sunset ! The environment is so fresh, clean and mesmerizing… I even fell asleep on the balcony while waiting for the wonderful sunset. I highly recommend Stephen’s place for families and friends who want to spend some time together. We wish you the best of everything, Stephen. We had a great time. Thank you so much!

Average for all

Excellent cottage. Very well maintained. All you need will be their. Owner doing an excellent job of keeping the property to a higher standard.Thank You very much.

This cottage is very clean and comfortable.The road is narrow and very little room to turn arround so if you plan on bringing a boat that needs to be tied to a dock then I suggest renting a slip at the local marina. All in all a beautiful spot for some rest and relaxation.

This is a very relaxing site on Lake Sturgeon. The large main room has a great view of the lake, which is just a few steps away. The house is stocked with plenty of kitchen supplies, plus many games and movies if you're stuck inside. The host, Stephen, is a warm and friendly man who will make things right if you should have any problems.

The pictures don't do justice! Beautiful & cozy lakefront cottage.

I had a good relaxing time.

Amazing property. Bring an air conditioner and drive slow on the road or you will get yelled at.

Overall, myself and my sibling's had a great stay. The inside of the cottage is well maintained, the two bedrooms are a good size, the living area and kitchen was great for cooking and hanging out. The proximity to both Bobcaygeon and Lindsey was convenient. The view from the deck is stunning, the perfect place for coffee and meals. There are a few things we wish had been made clear in the booking/would have liked to see improved upon.The cottage was cleanish, sheets had been washed and dishes were clean however both bathrooms had hair and bugs in the shower and didn’t look like they’ve been cleaned in a while. Floors had been vacuumed before arrival but the cottage was incredibly dusty and most windowsills were filled with dead bugs and debris. The host was also unresponsive for the entire length of our stay, I messaged multiple times asking about checkout procedures and if the water is safe to drink and they never responded. Things to know prior to booking that aren’t in the posting: There is NO dock on site. There is an old boat launch, however half of it is broken and you will need to wade into the water. Water shoes are highly recommend. You are not allowed any camp fires on site regardless of the fire rating and there’s a house rule that you can’t even burn mosquito coils which makes sitting outside at night impossible. This was disappointing as there’s a beautiful deck but my group was getting munched on too much to stay outside in the evening.

Great place to get away for a couple days, beautiful view, but a lot of steps to go up and down to the water. Overall a great experience and owner is very friendly and easy to deal with.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is very spacious and comfortable.

Veary peaceful and reaxing Lakeview cottage is vary spacious and clean with lots of games and a TV for your entertainment.. Beautiful deck overlooking the lake.

The building was as pictured and suitable to relax in but overall we had a very negative experience. The sofa bed in the living room was unusable and we had to bring and use our own mattress for our stay. Stephen’s communications with us were erratic, unintelligible, and, in several instances, extremely hostile (e.g. blowing up personal phone lines & refusing to write using official VRBO channels). The house rules were innumerable and made enjoying our stay very difficult. Stephen was difficult to reach and refused to answer questions, and he harassed us aggressively after our stay because of some miscommunications over the house rules.

We had a great stay, place was clean, well stocked, everything worked perfectly. Beautiful views of the lake, very private, didn't see another soul aside from those on the water. Amazing price for being so close to Toronto.

Had a nice relaxing time at this cottage with my family. Close to the lake and had a beautiful view from the back. Catch some fish from the lake and was very happy. Thanks

Very peaceful and clean. We had a great time, thanks.

We had a great time staying at this property, I caught one of the amazing sunsets here.

The whole process was easy, we were totally satisfied with the property. Had a fabulous stay. Great location!

Had a wonderful time at Stephen’s cottage for Canada Day weekend! We had everything we needed and more for a great stay. The dock was great to sit and fish off of during the day and the views off the deck were incredible. Swimming by the dock is fine too as long as you’re careful on the rocks. The pull out couch in the living room was broken but we had brought an air mattress so it wasn’t a problem and there is another pull out couch downstairs that works.

This cottage was even better than the pictures, it was spacious and clean. Stephen even called beforehand to ensure we had the right directions. Lots of board games and cooking supplies available. We really enjoyed our weekend getaway.
