Summary: We had an amazing time staying at this beautiful island cottage! The property offered so many activities to keep us entertained, from access to a boat, kayaks, and paddle boats to a badminton net, trampoline, and tons of indoor games. The hammock and swing were wonderful touches, perfect for relaxing after a fun-filled day. The cottage was spotless, and Andria, our host, was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed for a smooth and relaxing weekend. One thing to keep in mind is that you’ll need to take care of your own garbage disposal by bringing it to a landfill, which involves carrying it by boat on your way back to the parking lot. Also, sound does carry quite easily throughout the cottage, so it’s best suited for guests who are comfortable with each other. That said, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future. Thank you, Andria, for an unforgettable experience!

Summary: Our stay on McVittie Island was magical. The house was very comfortable and we were made to feel very welcome. I believe that the place was more peaceful as it had to be accessed by boat. It was wonderful to be close to nature and enjoy seeing deer and other wildlife in the garden. We enjoyed the BBQ, s'mores over the firepit, watching the stars on the dock and the water of course.

Summary: What a beautiful property and amazing experience we had. The host, Andria was so welcoming and very responsive to all our questions. Before arriving we were given some friendly reminders which saved us from missing some important things that made our stay even better. Andria left us a nice welcome package and the cottage was super clean and spacious. We had plenty of room for our kids and lots of water toys to choose from which was great for our kids. The fire pit was cozy with nice seating prearranged and the large yard was perfect for playing soccer, volleyball, badminton and they had a trampoline as well. Our kids were never bored including our teenagers and who paddled over to Patterson Kaye for a snack. My wife and I felt relaxed the entire time and will definitely be returning again next year. This is the perfect spot for families. Thanks for making our summer vacation so special.

Summary: We enjoyed a nice extended weekend and had great weather with 2 families (including 2 toddlers and young kid). The winner was the trampoline, big yard and fire pit. Nice log cabin, good space for 2 families. The kitchen could use a little TLC, but it all worked out. We did have some inconveniences. Boat transfer was smaller than we thought as the original boat was getting repairs, which meant multiple trips to get over. The new gas tank for the BBQ wouldn't open unfortunately, and no tools to help with that, so we had to get creative with our meals. But Andria was a very responsive and helpful host. We even paddle boated across to enjoy a nice lunch at Seasons.
