We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks here!

There was nothing that we lacked, everything we needed was right here. We loved seeing the two deer that live nearby as well as trips to the dump to see the bears.

Great cottage in a great setting.

Thanks again!

We had a fantastic vacation. We caught lots of fish, had lots of fun boating and really liked hiking into Percy Lake.

This is our fourth time here and we don't want to leave !

When our kids were little we always spent our summers in wilberforce. now that the kids have grown up and have kids of their own we wanted to recreate that experience.

It has been a great place for our family get-together.

We spent hours on the beach roasted marshmallows by the fire and we caught enough fish for a fish fry. Weather was great the cottage was perfect for the 8 of us.

Thank you

"Your cottage is absolutely beautiful!  What a wonderful location you have.  One year we'd like to return in the fall....maybe this year.  When do you take booking for 2010?....

 

The waterfront you have was great for the kids and both my son and daughter enjoyed fishing.  My son caught some big fish and my 7 year old daughter had her first experience of fishing (and on a canoe, and paddleboat).  The other family we vacationed with are really into fishing so they were in heaven....

So thanks again and let us know please when we'd be able to book a future Haliburton getaway."

Sincerely,

Pauline

"Our stay was so enjoyable, we all had such a wonderful time!  The cottage was perfect and provided everything we needed for our week away (a home away from home).  The view from the living area was simply stunning and provided a picture perfect view of the lake and lightning shows during the night.  We are definitely looking forward to returning again in the fall and hopefully next summer.  Thanks for making it a memorable family vacation".

When you have next summer's schedule ready, we would love to be able to go up again!

Sincerely,

Thank you very much for the use of your cottage. We had a fabulous time and the weather was perfect everyday. We kept the garbage inside, no bear sightings...

We are very interested in renting your cottage next summer for the same week...

Hope you enjoy a relaxing week.

Sincerely,

Jennifer

First of all, let me say that you have got a wonderful cottage and property here. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here with our family and entertaining some friends.

On an interesting note, we were up early this morning to clean and pack. I noticed that a bear had tried to climb up on the deck to get into the garbage can. It must have been fairly large because it's claw marks reached as high as I can when I'm standing on my toes. It dug it's claws into the wood siding along the bottom of the deck and ripped off a few strips of wood. There are also claw marks a little higher up on the edge of the floor. It doesn't require any major repair but maybe a coat of stain on the exposed wood to seal it.

Karen and I closed the deal on our own cottage on the lake over on Morris Lane near the public beach facing north. Unfortunately, that means we won't be lined up to rent yours again next year but we will spread the word and hopefully find you some other good tenants. Ours has a lot of fixing up to do to rival yours but

we've picked up some neat design and decorating tips that we may try to replicate.

Thank you.

Jeff and Karen

Just a quick note to say we had a great time at your cottage last week!  It is a beautiful place and is certainly the best designed cottage we’ve ever had the pleasure of vacationing at.  We rented a 9.9 tin boat from the marina at Fort Irwin which served us very well for the week’s fishing expeditions.  We were also fortunate enough to have the wolves howl back at us when we visited the Haliburton Forest on Thursday night.  Dinner at Sir Sam’s was highlighted with a selection from their extensive wine cellar – very nice!  Golf at Haliburton Highlands was a scenic and challenging trek for one afternoon, we had a good visit with the new owner who seems like a very nice fellow....         

 

Thanks again and special thanks to my Dad for renting the place, we really enjoyed our week.

Mark.
