The house was very spacious and comfortable for 3 couples. Amazing kitchen to cook in. We loved that we could use the hot tub, sauna and fire pit in December. We even go to use the basketball court as there was no snow. I would love to go again during the summer to use the inground pool and nature trails. A little oasis in the middle of the woods with tons of privacy. ##### Michelle T.

Joanna was an excellent host. She replied to all of our questions before and during our stay very promptly. The property was very clean and everything functioned as expected. The property was well stocked with all essentials, and then some. There was ample space for our two families. We would certainly re-visit this property in the future. ##### Dominique S.

It has been 13 years since we spent dedicated time together away from our hustle-bustle lives! My mom is 95 and absolutely loved the pool as did one of my sisters and my (only) brother! My other two sisters have limited mobility using walkers, one requiring extra-special care. This wonderful space was perfect for them... main floor bedrooms/bath and the huge kitchen/gathering area were ideal. Perhaps the owners would consider adding railings here and there to assist better use of the outdoor spaces for those with mobility challenges. This could be an excellent rental feature in the future. We will definitely be back. Thanks so much ##### Kim G. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kavan S. 17 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolutely amazing property!!!!! We hosted a family reunion here of about 10 -12 people and it was an absolutely amazing time. The property is beautiful with all the amenities you could ask for. The house comes fully stocked with everything you need from propane for the BBQ grill to firewood for camp fires every night. The property is secluded enough to make you feel like you are in your own world while still being close enough to places like Barrie Costco. The best part of the stay was seeing every star imaginable at night. Joanna is an incredible host that made the whole process smooth. We are definitely going to be visiting again. One word of caution, just like any other open area, there are quite a few mosquitoes so remember to bring bug spray and you'll be all good. Thank you again Joanna. ##### Kavan S.

We immediately contacted VRBO and the property contact without any resolution as of now (3 days later). When we were looking at the rooms, there was mouse droppings on top of one of the upstairs beds. We also found mouse droppings on the kitchen counters. The 5th bedroom which was listed was full of junk and unusable. The basement rug was filthy. This was not mentioned at anytime prior to check in. Hoping we are fully refunded for the place we spent 1 hour at. ##### Jill R.
