The weather was excellent as well as the owner. It met all of our expectations and more. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this lovely cottage to anyone looking for picturesque scenery and off the beaten path experience!

Cottage was exactly as described and very clean. Well stocked with tp, soap etc. Use of non-motorized water sport equipment, linens and towels were included which was nice. Owner was very friendly and helpful and was readily available for any questions. Cottage was close to the small town of Bala which was very convenient.

The cottage was very nice! The only downsides were that the wifi data available was very minimal, as well as not being able to dispose of toilet paper in the toilets. Otherwise, our stay was great!

Very relaxing stay, great cottage!

It was pleasure to stay there. Thank you Nick.

Everything was just as expected the location is great the water was gorgeous and the Chalet is nice

my family spent very nice three days here in May. It’s a good location on quiet shallow lake, access to paddle boats, clean house, owner is always reachable. There is a nice deck, picnic table, fireplace. Trees are gorgeous. My kids loved sitting on the rocks in lake and they were very safe. There is nothing bad to say about the house, only mosquitoes were pretty bad around this time of the year but that’s not in anyone’s control. Oh and shops in Bala close by 6 pmbin spring. Buy your groceries and beers early :). Thanks Nick for a great stay.

Exceptionally clean cottage! Very nice dock area and flat grounds. Easy to find and had lots of parking space. Having unlimited internet (for Netflix or movie streaming) or satellite TV would have been nice for those rainy days.

This property is wonderful, and the owner is extremely responsive. The house is perfectly situated on a quiet small lake. It comes equipped with absolutely everything we needed to make our vacation hassle free. At our disposal was a canoe, a kayak and a rowboat. It had a gourmet kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, plates, utensils, cups and glasses - everything we needed to make great meals. There is a large dining room table as well as a picnic table outside by the lake. Our only mistake was not staying longer, and I hope to return next year. It's a 5 star, relaxing place to spend time with your family. I totally recommend this property.

My family rented Nick's cottage for 2 weeks in june/July of 2018. Overall it was a great experience and we would rent it again. The cottage has three bedrooms which was more than enough for me, my wife and our two young kids. The two rooms on the main floor have bunkbeds, which our son was really excited about and the upstairs master bedroom has a queen bed with bath. Here is what we liked: - Great location. The cottage is in Torrance, only about 2 hours from Toronto. There is also a bakery, grocery store and other shops in bala, about 10 minutes away - On the water. The cottage has a really nice dock with shallow water, perfect for swimming with kids - Modern interior. The cottage is renovated with a modern kitchen and hardwood floors. - Very responsive owner. Nick usually responds to questions within about 5 minutes and was very helpful. - Fully stocked. The kitchen has all utensils, cups, plates and silverware. The cottage also has towels, bedding, a bbq, wood for a fire and basically everything else you need. The only considerations are: - the cottage is on a relatively small lake with lots of cottages, so if you are looking for an extremely secluded place it is probably not for you - there is no cable or AC which was fine for us but may be important to some people - There are data restrictions so if uploading/downloading a lot just use your own hotspot. Overall our family really enjoyed this cottage and would recommend it to others.
