Amazing spot! We had 12 of us for a birthday weekend. The place was immaculate. Hosts were on point. Responsive within minutes. Don’t pass up on an opportunity with friends and family here. 11 out of 10! Thank you to the hosts.

A few of us ladies took a quick trip outside the GTA for some rest and relaxation, and this Airbnb was perfect for what we wanted. The space was large enough for 12 of us while still feeling warm and cozy, especially with the snow falling and the beautiful lake views. The place was clean, and the photos matched the listing. It was well stocked with pots, pans, cutlery, tea, seasonings, soaps, and laundry supplies—truly a home away from home. We also appreciated the games provided, like Jenga and Connect 4. The only challenge was snow removal. Some of us got stuck in the driveway, and the host’s original plan fell through when the equipment broke. We had to manage with one shovel and some sand/salt bags. Once we shared our concerns, the host was very receptive and tried to address the issue. He was otherwise communicative and kind throughout our stay. Overall, we enjoyed our visit and would definitely consider returning, especially in the summer.

We had a wonderful weekend at Edwin’s place. The home offers breathtaking views, making it the perfect retreat for relaxation. We traveled with kids, and there were plenty of activities to keep them entertained. It’s an ideal spot for both unwinding and family fun!
