We really enjoyed our stay! Jonny is an easy host to communicate with and made sure we had all the information we needed. The listing and photos were representative of the cottage and property - though both indoors and out is more spacious than they appear. The dock area is a great place to soak up some sun in the afternoon and the kids enjoyed the boats and lily pad. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen had all we needed and there were good board game and dvd collections in case of rainy days. Nice mix of sun and shade options outside. We had room to play badminton and volleyball on the front yard (non lake side).
The gradual entry to the water was great for kayaks (provided) and the sups and canoe we brought. Also great for the dog and would be great for anyone with young kids.
Our kids (10/12) had lots of fun but wished the water was deeper off the dock. Still, we wouldn’t hesitate to return and would highly recommend the property for those with young kids, seniors, and absolutely anyone who would enjoy fishing on the big, beautiful Lake Tomiko. This is a great spot for kids, parents and grandparents to relax and play together.
Adventurers - we had a great canoe/SUP adventure up the nearby Tomiko river. So beautiful! A few easy lift-overs, most of which we paddled on the way downstream. We made it to the foot of a series of rapids that would make a great picnic spot (leave no trace!) Saw MANY beavers, two huge snapping turtles, and some deer and wolf tracks.
