My family stayed here in July and this place was perfect. The host Toula was very helpful and accommodating. The weather was perfect and the beach was so close to us for swimming and fishing. The house so unique, with a ton of space, comfortable beds, and fun games to play, movies to watch, and the A/C worked so well! We had a great time and plan to return again in the future. We went golfing in nearby Arnes, MB at Marvellous Meadows, only 8-10 minutes away and stopped over at Gimli as well. Our last day we headed up to Hecla Island for a guided fishing tour and brought home some walleye! Great Trip! ##### Jason N. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathew B. 19 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Really cute place with open concept. Many different areas to lounge around. Everything we needed was there. Close to Gimli and hecla for hikes and beach. I would recommend. ##### Mathew B.
