The cottage is beautiful, comfortable, spacious, the location is stunning, and the screened in porch was an absolute added bonus. We were also really delighted we could bring our cat with us, and that the screened in porch was there so she could safely enjoy the location too :-) All of the instructions, access, setup, and process for the cottage was clear and easy.

It's just a few minutes drive to Westport which has interesting shops and a good grocery store. The owner was so cooperative and easy to deal with that I have booked a time in June and can't wait to get back to this wonderful cottage. The only caution is that there are stairs to get to the lake which should be considered for someone with mobility issues. ##### Marlene M.

Very relaxing and quiet. The loons on the lake were close by--loved their calls to each other! It was clean and had a well stocked kitchen. If you have little children, the outdoor patio has a drop off that you would need to use caution with. We would definitly recommend this place. ##### Sarah F.

We had an amazing one week stay at Erika's property. The communications upfront was excellent and the information package answered any possible questions we had before arrival. We found the cottage to be very clean and tidy and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay - large bottled water, basic spices and more. The kitchen was extremely well equipped with plenty of dish and cookware and we loved hanging out in the screened in porch during the evenings and down at the dock during the day. We hope to be back the summer of 2026! ##### John B.

Cottage was amazing - very well maintained, "traditional" feel to it (original fittings, kitchen etc.). Front screened porch was our favourite place to relax, with an excellent view of the lake. New dock was a great place for morning coffee, and bbq on the side deck with a lake view was also a nice touch. Views from nearly all windows, including master bedroom. Host Erika was very helpful and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone for a cozy lake-side stay. ##### John C.

The opportunity to quarantine in Erika's cottage for two weeks was a gift from on high. The setting into which this charming stone cottage is nestled is both beautiful and peaceful. Waking to the sunrise over the deep blue lake and falling asleep to the call of loons made for a truly relaxing stay, with plenty of fishing, nightly bonfires, and reading on the screened-in porch in between. Everything you need to leave the stress of a pandemic behind awaits! Thanks, Erika. ##### Janice B.

Visiting as a family of 6, with 2 little ones and a 4-legged friend, we had ample space in this sweet little cottage, with the fantastic screened in porch area being our favorite hangout spot. Not to mention, the thrilling fishing just steps away on both the dock of the property, and the boat we rented for the week from Norris Bait and Tackle. The kids had a blast! The shoreline of the lake offers many beautiful properties to not miss sightseeing. In addition to those things, and the tasty food in Westport (don't miss the Cove Inn!), Erika was the most optimal host! Prior to our visit, Erika was in contact with us, inquiring what would make our stay the most comfortable for us, and even after we were home, she was very responsive and accommodating of some things we had accidentally left behind. Overall a fantastic and memorable experience for our first visit to Canada! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2baed051-e8f7-46e6-84b9-3dc06d89a6e8-1753040456376.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f21aef60-4059-4f6f-86f4-d25b01d8d794-1753040456677.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/689030ac-26e4-4527-b8c2-355954aac6f9-1753040454443.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nathan N.

Beware if you have mobility issues as there are close to 40 steps down to the lakeside dock. Erika has all the cupboards labeled, so no trouble locating kitchen supplies. When we had rain days, there were tons of boards games to keep us busy. Even watched Nadal beat Djokovic at the French Open on cable TV! Erika is a lovely host who will bend over backwards to help her guests. Only drawback for me was housekeeping. It is lackadaisical, but I'm a clean freak., so not up to my usual standards. ##### Susan T.

Overall great week with lots of wildlife sightings (deer, loons, chipmunks and a mink), great fire pit on the patio and close to charming small towns to explore. Foley Lake Conservation area nearby has excellent hiking trails including a short and easy walk to an amazing view over Westport. Lake was slightly weedy, so swimming wasn't superb, but still good. Very well equipped kitchen with everything you could need, and a nice big frig. Lots of chairs and loungers for relaxing on the patio or the dock. Great selection of games and books. All you need for a fun and relaxing week. ##### T E.

Cottage is well appointed, and the outdoor set up is great. We brought our paddle boards so made full use of the dock and access to water. There is also a wonderful fire ring outside- we made lots of s’mores. Nice and quiet and beds were comfortable so all slept well. Family friendly hiking nearby at Foley Mountain. ##### Julia T.

The views are spectacular. To truly appreciate the location, get out on the lake. Enjoy the deck, the dock, kayaking to see the loons, and swim. All meals on the patio, the sunrise morning coffee time and walks down the lane. The Foley Mt. hike and dinner at the Cove Inn were great! ##### E W.

Great firepit, fans in all the rooms, comfy couch and large table to entertain extended family for meals. Family with kids may want to rent kayaks, or pick up floaties to enjoy the water. Careful of the barnacles/mussels clustered in the shallow waters! ##### Shawne M.

Perfect spot by the water. Nice property. We all loved the screened-in porch and the great fire pit. My teenaged daughters loved the dock for sunbathing, swimming and fishing. Loads of fish in the lake. Everything was exactly as advertised. ##### Katina M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2020 ---
