Summary: Great house with enough space for a large group to sleep and play comfortably. Great location, we used the community pool and could walk to antlers! Water is pretty intense well water so we brought our own to drink. I would say that is the most inconvenient thing but otherwise a fantastic stay and we will be back!

Summary: Our family met here for Christmas this year and it was absolutely lovely. Beautiful holiday decor and the hot cocoa bar was a hit with the kids. The home is exactly as pictured (except the exterior is red now instead of grey, which confused me upon arrival). Plenty of space for the family to spread out but also well-designed for the whole group to be in one room watching a holiday movie and playing games. We also used the pool at the clubhouse and the kids loved the comfortable water temperature and the slide. I would definitely recommend this home to others.

Summary: Great house for our family of 12. Very nice place to stay! We had plenty of room and liked the comfy beds and couch. Nicely decorating. Kids enjoyed the sandy beach area, fishing off the dock and going out on the lake with the paddle boat.

Summary: We came up to Canadian Lakes for a holiday weekend with three other families of our cousins. The property was clean, spacious and just what we needed. The host was incredibly kind, prepared and communicative. We are looking forward to booking with them and this property again. This was close to everything in the town and had everything we needed. Thank you, for having us!

Summary: We rented Cheryl's house for a golf trip with 12 guys. The house was outstanding! Plenty of room for everyone, the house had everything we needed! I would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to get away. Would be ideal for a big family looking to get away to a lake house over the summer as well!

Summary: I stayed with family (6 adults, 2 children), in early spring. Given the time of year we had cool temperatures and some rain but none of that affected how much we enjoyed our stay. The home is beautifully decorated, clean, and all the rooms and bathrooms were comfortable and well appointed. The open floor plan and big table and couches let everyone be together. A highlight for me is the outdoor space with great views of the lake off the gated deck and a big yard with tons of wildlife and cozy a fire pit by the water with great stargazing, it is beautiful. We wanted to get onto the water and the owner went out of their way to get the pontoon launched early for us. The kids loved the paddle boat and the older kids loved the kayaks. We went to the clubhouse pool, it isn’t very big, but still relaxing and the kids loved the pool. The attention to details was really what stood out most to us. Small details like a popcorn maker and both indoor and outdoor games, having a few laundry pods available because I forgot to bring some, even a big electric griddle to do a large amount of French toast so we could all eat together; once we had groceries we didn’t need to leave because they have thought of everything. Also, right from booking the owner was great communicating and very accommodating. They understand what makes great memories. I would definitely book again.

Summary: The house is a wonderful little getaway for fmaily and friends. It was very spacious with all the families we had and kids. The kids loved all the games and the basement was wonderful for them. It was nice that all the adults had their own space as well. It was little disappointing that we were under the impression that we were able to use the pool, but once we got to the pool we had to pay a fee to get in.. as we thought all Canadian lakes amenities were included per the description Over all it was a wonderful stay we all had a blast, just wished there was little bit more information on the amenities part.

Summary: Nice location and very spacious and comfortable home. Fireplace was inoperable and basement TV either didn’t work or we couldn’t make it work w/o instructions. Owner responded quickly to inquiries.
