Perfect for our ski getaway

by Tina
This is a lovely and spacious yet cozy cottage. The owners have gone out of their way to ensure that you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay (the kitchen in particular is exceptionally well-stocked).The setting is peaceful and beautiful and the hot tub was a real treat after a day skiing. We certainly look forward to returning.

Outstanding in EVERY way!!!!

by Stephan & Sandee
Our holiday at this Glen Lake Retreat was outstanding. Just the two of us - so we had TONS of room to roam. This retreat is a very high-end home and immaculately clean. The master bedroom, where we slept, was large and had a very comfortable bed. It was fabulous to have the screen door open a bit at night to have cool, fresh air permeate the room - as well as hearing the barred owl at night. Oh - and the stars at night, down on the dock - will take your breath away!!!! During the day, we had quite the entertainment from a resident red squirrel burying his winter cache....and in the evening we had two deer right near the front door! What a fabulous nature retreat! The location is remote and quiet - yet not too far from some excellent dining establishments (as we didn't want to cook dinner every night!!) We look forward to returning next year!!!!

Beautiful cottage

Glen Lake retreat is a lovely, large cottage on a quiet lake. The cottage is spotless, well stocked and comfortable to relax in. The lake is great for swimming and paddling with a very nice dock to lounge on.

What More Could You Want?

by Ian C
A return visit. This place has everything. Lots of room. Enough living rooms/common spaces that there's some we never used. And the best stocked kitchen we've ever rented out of 20 cottages over the years. There's no utensil/tool/pan they don't have. The indoor and outdoor space are all top notch. Couldn't recommend it more.

This cottage is our Zen

by Neil
Beautiful, clean, fully stocked cottage. I cannot offer any suggestions for improvement. The lake (no motors of any sort) is pristine, natural and peaceful. This was our second visit and we will not hesitate to rent again. I was admittedly a little reluctant to post such a good review as I really do not want to draw too much attention to the cottage as I fear competition for the rental in the future.
Thanks for your review and don't worry, we always give priority to returning guests 😉

One of the Best

by Ian C
This is an astounding cottage. It has everything you might need and then some. It is the cleanest cottage we've ever rented. Things feel new but lived in. It's warm, spacious - there's three living rooms so there's plenty of space for people to get privacy if they want. The hot tub is great. The lake is small, engine-free and peaceful. The area around it is great for walks. There's only one cottage beside you and shape of the land gives you lots of privacy. And all in all it's just really beautifully put together. Highly recommend it.

Utterly Spectacular

by Neil Gill
This cottage exceeded our every expectation. It was beautiful, clean, well outfitted, well maintained and clearly well loved. The location was unbeatable and the fact that the lake had no motors on it was the icing on the cake. We would not change a thing and our family could not have had a more wonderful vacation. We will be back.

Had a wonderful vacation.

by Penny Muellerchen
Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage with us. The decore was lovely and tasteful. Super organized and a nice touch having everything labled. Everything you could need was provided. We specially appreciated the various pillows to choose from. The balcony was wonderful and that's where we ate all our meals. Only thing that would've made it perfect, would've been a canoe or kayak. Hope to come back again next year.

Peaceful

by meagan aarts
the location and property were fantastic. I've never stayed on a no motor lake and i really enjoyed how calm it was.I emailed letting you know the fridge was leaking when we arrived and there were also ants throughout the kitchen and even found some in living room on my baby's blanket... so that might be something you want to address.We will be booking a week rental next August long weekend but we like to keep trying different cottages.Thanks againMeagan

Spacious and quiet getaway

Exceptionally spacious, tidy and modern cottage with a decent amount of privacy. While the neighbours' cottage is physically close, their dock is a fair enough distance that you won't feel crowded. The lake overall is pristine and small, with what seems to be a very limited number of docks entering it at all. Beautifully quiet at night and into the morning hours. Well located by Eagle Lake with a local LCBO/market, and close distance to both Haliburton and the wolf sanctuary (a favourite of our families).With two levels, it's ideal for families with kids or teens, as they can have their own separate space. Even moreso with the loft which our not-quite-tweens absolutely loved. The cottage is well appointed, with clean and functional appliances. A few odd things felt missing that I would have expected - matts outside the shower for instance - and a dinner table with only enough seating for six, despite a sleeping capacity of up to ten. Nothing you'd consider a deal-breaker though.Overall, we had a fantastic visit and wish we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful well-equipped cottage

by Gerry Zeit
We stayed at Glen Lake for a fall weekend but would love this cottage any time of year. The cottage is right on the lake but also just steps from Sir Sam's Inn so great for both summer and winter activities. it is a beautifully designed cottage and deceptively spacious. It has a very functional well equipped kitchen with very new, high end appliances and all the gadgets. Two TV's with HDMI and DVD players and both indoor and outdoor fireplaces. Lots of DVD's books and board games. We also really enjoyed the brand new hot tub. Plenty of space on the lot so you can play football, volleyball etc or just enjoy the woods. One tip - the sound system is older so connectivity is not great. Bring your own blue tooth speakers if you want music from your phone, Bring your own laptop if you want Netflix. Overall very highly rated.
