History:

We are not in this to run a hands off business and simply collect income. The cottage is in our blood. We rent it to help offset costs so that we can continue to enjoy it as well and continue to keep it in great shape and make improvements every year.

We do not think of people as clients. They are our guests. We want to provide an experience that provides fair value. We want our guests to feel like this is their home when they are here. We want them to want to come back.

I lost my folks in my early/mid 30s and have been managing the cottage since then, a little over a decade now. I take a tremendous amount of pride in it and since meeting Amy 5 years ago, she has been right beside me. My parents were given nothing and this was their/our jewel.

I had and still have family in the Muskoka's and we actually helped settle the land in the 1800s. In the 1960s, my dad worked with my uncle from the village who did some real estate after the war and he bought this piece of land,

He let it sit until the 80s when he and my mom had the foundation poured and then he built it from the ground up with his buddies, He was in sales, but thankfully he was handy and all his friends were skilled tradesmen. It is the central focal point in almost all of our memories together, with friends, with extended family.

I have taken great pride in not only enjoying it as they wished, but replicating their hard work and perseverance. We try to not only maintain it, but add to it every year like they did, Accepting guests helps us do that. Next year is painting inside and out, new appliances and new rails on the boathouse.

Basically, we want to share with guests that will enjoy it the way we do. We will greet you and walk you through - either myself or our concierge and property manager and we will be available (within reason of course :-) ) should you need assistance during your stay.

Ce cottage offre de nombreuses prestations comme des barbecues, une salle de jeux vidéo et un jardin. Ce cottage offre également un service de conciergerie et une laverie. La réception est ouverte 24h/24.
