We had an amazing stay! The staff is lovely and very efficient. The place was very clean. Beds were comfy and very clean as well. We had everything we needed and the beach was beautiful. There was always a canoe there when we wanted to go for a paddle no matter what time of day. (They were never all out) We had a fire every night. The lake is spectacular with the Oxtongue river just a 15 min paddle away. We hope to return in the near future.

Great location close to a couple of provincial parks and many hiking destinations. The on-site access to a fire pit or watercraft make this stay a great experience. The interior of the suite was fully equipped with comfortable beds and provided access to preparing your own food. Have already booked other stay with a group of friends.

Lovely position on the edge of the lake. Peaceful and comfortable lodge. We stayed here out of season and will hopefully come back in the summer to enjoy the activities on the lake.

A nice place to stay at however too many rules and restrictions. Hey Mr Supervisor people can take a day or two off work to rest at this cottage so be considered and stop making up rules such as no fire to vibe made and no one can go kayaking due to the heat !! It's ridiculous to think that you can control everything! We have stayed there twice and each time our vacation is ruined by either no fire or no kayaking which defeats the whole purpose of a vacation . We didn't want to go all the way there just to stay indoors o

Dated accommodation needs a full upgrade in facilities. Location is wonderful, aircon was basically a piece of junk that did nothing other than a fan. Area around the microwave was poor for any kind of food prep, ideally needed kitchen sink and area for laundry. Staff were very good.
