Wonderful Long Weekend Stay
We were a group of 6 adults who stayed here over the May long weekend and we could not be more pleased with the experience! The property was so beautiful and the location was a perfect escape. The cottage itself was immaculate and stocked with everything we could possibly need (even down to citronella candles and makeup wipes!) which made our stay super comfortable and convenient. The attention to detail in maintaining and preparing the cottage was evident, and it truly felt like a home away from home while also being so beautiful and unique. I would definitely return and recommend this rental!

Found a real gem
Hidden gem is a beautiful property that is chock full of amenities. There is a full spice rack along with all kinds of cooking supplies. It's close to Orillia and a couple public beaches, and you can see Casino Rama around the corner. We really enjoyed our stay. A couple things to note is the area is very swampish, so mosquitoes are quite heavy outside (the owner provides mosquito repellant and coils). Nevertheless, we decided against using the fire pit at night, for this reason. Great visit, would stay again!

An Amazing home away from home!
Our stay was perfect! Sharon and Harvey have thought of everything you could possibly need for your stay. Their home is immaculate, inviting and feels like you are in the middle of nowhere. They have gone over and above to think of games for indoor fun and outside fun! Their covered porch is the perfect place for a morning coffee and afternoon cocktail! I would highly recommend this hidden gem!

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was extremely clean and it was a beautiful treed lot. We liked relaxing on the back covered deck in the afternoons. Sharon and Harvey were great hosts making sure we had everything we needed. It was just a 20 minute drive into downtown Orillia.

Wonderful home away from home
We wanted to stay in a comfortable place where even a local lockdown wouldn't bother us because it was so beautiful. Sharon's and Harvey's high class house delivered. We're not really gamblers but the fact that it was literally next to Casino Rama would be enticing to some. We just wish that Orillia boat rentals were more open for business in the month of August.
