Nice main cottage interior, but not a great outdoors.
Family reunion trip where both main cottage and cabin were rented together.
The pros first- Host Terry was very responsive to questions and very accommodating. The interior of the main cottage was very nicely renovated. Linens and towels provided. Wi-Fi stable. Lake Shawanaga was warm and very clean.
However, there were some disappointments.
1. Both main cottage and cabin were not cleaned very well. There were cobwebs in bedrooms and bedsheets still had lots of pet hair. One bedside table was full of used tissue from prior renter.
2. Pictures show the cottage to be right by the beach “steps from the beach”. The specifics to this is that there is quite abit of elevation from the “beach” to the cabin and even more uphill hike to the main cottage. This was not accessible to most staying in the main cottage and we ended up driving people back and forth to the “beach”
3. The “beach” is actually a municipal boat launch and the only access for many properties on the lake. Although advertised a place we can set up and hang out for the day, there were boats being launched every 30 mins or so, and even when in the water we would have to move out for boat launch traffic. Not your own “beach”.
4. The grounds were not well maintained and the grass quite overgrown. The campfire area around the cabin was extremely overgrown and not pleasant.
5. Advertised as a very large land area, but most of this is forest and not accessible. Not even a decent area to play volleyball or badminton.
