Attention Guests
HST – Revenue Canada has recently changed its policy with regards to HST for short term rentals. Therefore, rental prices on this website will reflect these new HST charges.
Guest Payment – We under any circumstance do NOT use e-transfers as a form of deposit or payment. They are not secure. If you are in the process of booking a cottage with us, please give us a call, we would be happy to assist and ensure your information is protected. 705-788-1809.
Covid – Bookings that must be cancelled due to COVID-19 will only be transferable to a future date and are not refundable. This policy is only applicable to vacations that were placed during COVID-19 lockdowns, specific to short term rentals.
