Summary: Had a great weekend away at Lazy Bear Cottage with a group of friends. The cottage is spacious and very well equipped with everything you need. The paddle boards and floating mat were great for enjoying the lake during the day and the sunset views from the private dock were beautiful! Would absolutely stay here again.

Summary: We absolutely loved our stay here. Starting with the drive up, it was exactly as we had hoped. Checking in was seamless and we were greeted with the cutest basket of goodies on the kitchen island. It is the coziest cottage and has absolutely everything you could need. They even made sure to have the dogs items covered which was amazing! We spent almost the entire time down by the water whether it was paddle boarding, canoeing or the kids jumping off the dock. There were plenty of sand toys which was a nice break when the kids needed a rest from the water. We started our mornings playing one of the many board games and since being home, have added more games to our collection! We made meals together which was convenient as they had absolutely everything you could need to cook a nice meal. We spent the rest of the day at the water and enjoyed fires in the evening as well as fishing off the dock. The cottage is spotless, cozy and truly feels like home. We mentioned several times how at home and how at peace we all felt. We can't wait to come back next year and make it a family tradition at this beautiful cottage. One of our favourite parts is how our kids could walk into the water and swim on their own as it is shallow enough to do so, but deep enough that they could jump off and have a blast. We are grateful for our experience and opportunity to stay here and we look forward to many more stays!

The beds and linens were fresh, extremely comfortable and pristine. They truly thought of everything to ensure our stay was memorable and enjoyable and they were easy to communicate with. Great fishing from the dock was also a huge plus!

Summary: The Lazy Bear Lakehouse is such a beautiful and cozy place; the owners Michelle and Ryan have thought of everything! Such excellent hosts! The location really made for a relaxing and memorable stay with family. An ideal and pleasant getaway from the city. A beautiful place to get away, unplug and enjoy nature; cozying up around a nice fire outdoors was a highlight! We our planning another visit (longer next time), and we will be recommending your lovely place to everyone!! Thank you so much for everything and looking forward to another visit. All the best et à bientôt!

Summary: This cottage was an absolutely perfect getaway for me and my family. We spent a relaxing week, jumping in the lake, enjoying the views and soaking up the sun & fresh air. Michelle's place is even nicer and more well equiped than in the photos. I would definitely stay here again!

Summary: We like the cottage a lot and are considering to rent it again in the future. Three recommendations: Put mosquito repellants on deck and fire pit, fix door to deck, and include a couple of kayak.

Summary: We enjoyed our time at the Lazy Bear Lakehouse on Buckhorn Lake very much with our adult children and grand dogs. The cottage is lovely, the setting quiet and serene, although we were there during the week only and in June and suspect it might get busier on weekends and during full summer. We enjoyed the paddle boards provided and brought kayaks as well. We weren't able to enjoy a campfire as there was/is a fire ban, for good reason. I was unable to reply to the host on the thread upon arrival as google stated I'd been redirected too many times - weird - but I was able to email separately and communicate by text, hence the 4 stars for communication and check in but that was not a fault of the hosts. Also google maps directed two of our group down the wrong lane so we drove past the neighbour's cottage before we realized it was down the next lane. The geese had taken up residence on the deck and lawn before we arrived and the host offered to get the maintenance crew back to clean it up but we looked after it. It's nature - sh** happens! Our weather was beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay!

Summary: From the moment we arrived we had an excellent time. Because my wife needs a wheelchair and walker, the lakehouse was easy for her to get around. I found the renovations were really thought through, from the sunroom addition to the light switches everything was excellently done. Totally impressed with the appliances, it was just like being at home, everything you need. With everything being supplied, it just added to the comfort level at Lazy Bear. They also have a great cleaning crew. Lazy Bear was exceptionally clean. Michelle and Ryan were readily available for a couple of questions that we had. Great Hosts. The only problem we had was with there renovations they forgot to put in a heated toilet seat LOL Thanks again Highly recommend for a great holiday Dave & Betty
