Weekend getaway
We stayed at the Whitestone cottage for an extended weekend and it was amazing. We had a large group of 14 guys and there was plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortably. The kitchen is a chefs kitchen, it’s got everything you need and more along with a dining room table that can probably fit 20 people without any issues. There is so much to do at this property both outdoor and indoor if the weather isn’t cooperating. I’ll have to find another excuse to make my way back to the cottage.

The most amazing weekend and wedding
It is hard to put into words just how magical this property is. We had booked the cottage in hopes of a gorgeous intimate wedding and it did not disappoint! There was enough space for the wedding parties to stay comfortably at the cottage while a few more guests arrived for the wedding day. In total, 16 guests stayed at the cottage and everyone was able to sleep comfortably. In total, there were 31 guests on the wedding day. The backyard space provided a beautiful setting for the ceremony while the kitchen fit all 31 people comfortably for the reception. The cottage was clean and Kim was incredible in her communication leading up to our stay. I would recommend this property to anybody looking for a getaway!

The perfect getaway
This was our second time staying here, and it was even better than we remembered. Kim is a kind, responsive, and professional host and any issues were promptly resolved. We enjoyed everything the cottage had to offer and made family memories that will last a lifetime. A couple highlights were the large living and gathering space, the hot tub and campfire circle, the amazing water access and dock, and getting to see a shooting star on a clear night! We can't wait to come back!

Great multi-generational family vacation
We gathered multiple generations in our family for a quiet vacation and had a great time. The cottage is as listed and served us well. The early morning view of the lake was amazing. Cooking in the kitchen and shared meals at the dining table were a treat. Lots of common space on the main floor as well as side rooms when a bit of quiet is needed. The waterfront was enjoyed by us all, young and old, though it should be noted it's a bit of a distance from the cottage.

Fantastic cottage
The place was absolutely beautiful! The beds were so comfortable I wanted to take it home with me, and everything was very clean. Tons of games for rainy days and the kids had a blast fishing, they caught 1 after another off the dock. Kim and Mark were great hosts and met all of our needs.

Wonderful vacation
There were 5 of us , my spouse and I my son and daughter- in- law and grandson and a dog. We all agreed this was a great cottage. It was really spacious and yet cosy- lots of different areas to get together or have some time apart. There was lots to do, basketball, table tennis ,pool ,outdoor water toys, indoor streaming services.The lake is lovely. It is a bit of a walk from the cottage , maybe 10 minutes,down a gravel path through woods and meadow. There is a really lovely covered seating area by the lake where we hung out and played card games between swims. The cottage is just as pictured. The beds were really comfortable and the hosts were lovely. It would be a great place for a larger group as well! We would definitely come back!

Whitestone Lakehouse
We had a wonderful time. There was lots of room for for all 20 of us plus two dogs. The kitchen was well equipped and easy to use although it was a bit confined for that many people. The waterfront is well designed and the sauna was a big hit! The lake is beautiful and swimming is great especially with the raft and watercraft. Not everyone was enamoured with the long walk to the lake from the house but we got used to it. All In all this is a really nice property.

Fantastic family escape from the city
Our extended family of 16 people (ages 12 - 81) and two small dogs had an awesome time at this spacious cottage with breathtaking views. The drive to the cottage was easy, the entrance was clearly marked, the driveway well-maintained, and there was plenty of parking for our 5 cars. There’s a wow factor on entering the cottage, with the oversized main windows looking out onto breathtaking views. The cottage itself had everything we needed and the two ovens came in handy for preparing meals for a large group. We enjoyed every space and amenity: enough bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone, lots of seating, kids especially liked the games room which was great for family movie night. We also enjoyed the hot tub, the expansive dock, jumping into the lake and sitting under the lakeside gazebo. What a treat to have a place where we could all be together and not feel cramped! Kim was terrific to deal with and their hospitality is top notch! Overall, we had an outstanding time and only have positive things to say about Whitestone Lakehouse. We would definitely stay again!

Wonderful weekend at Whitestone
Kim and Dave’s place is fantastic. We were a group of 17 and slept comfortably thanks in part to the fresh towels and linens. The property offers plenty to do rain or shine with an amazingly serene lakeside dock setup paired with a projector room with ping pong, pool table and hot tub just outside. Amazing golf course (The Ridge at Manitou) less than 20 minutes away too. Can’t recommend it enough. Will certainly be back!!

Wonderful Experience
This was our first time getting all our family together in one location at the same time and everyone had a great time. There were 3 generations - grandparents to small children - and the place offers something for everyone. The house was large with more than enough room for our group of 16. The long dining table allowed everyone to eat together in comfort. The well-equipped kitchen with double oven made cooking easy. The open-concept Great Room was spacious enough for everyone while the smaller peripheral rooms allowed people to have some quite time away from the group if they desired. Wifi was strong for those needing to work, beds were large and comfortable, and the basement games room had something for everyone. We rented a pontoon boat from the local marina which was a great addition to the weekend's activities. Kim and Mark were wonderful hosts. It was easy to text them if we had any questions and we always got an immediate response. There were small touches of hospitality everywhere - bug spray, hats, doggie bags, shampoo & conditioner, coffee, condiments...all available for use by guests. We booked our stay because I said I wanted the "VRBO commercial" for my 60th Birthday and that's exactly what I got! Everything was just perfect. Thank you Kim and Mark for making our trip a one-of-a-kind experience for everyone in our group.

Massive cottage with all of the amenities!
Stayed with a group of 20 guys for a bachelor party. We were hoping to have a good time but thought the pictures looked too good to be true - boy were we wrong! The property was absolutely beauitful, not to mention massive! The host was super accommodating and all of the things we forgot or didn’t think to bring (towels, coffee, firewood, etc) were all provided by the host as part of our stay! Was super clean and a ton of fun! No bugs at all the entire weekend, water was a little chilly (but nothing you wouldn’t expect for a late April stay) but the hot tub and sauna helped with that! We’d stay again in a heartbeat! :)

FamJam Booking
We had an amazing stay at Kimberley's place. To start - this space easily holds a large group - without ever feeling like you are all on top of each other! Everyone had their own bedrooms (we were a group of 14) and the beds are so comfortable! this place also has everything you will need. the only item i would recommend is bringing dry wood and kindling to the sauna (in the winter) as the wood provided is left outdoors so it took us a while to get a fire going (3 hours) but once we got it going, it was perfect! We will definitely be booking this place again !

Absolutely wonderful!
My group LOVED this space. First, the beds and linens are SO cozy, after being to many cottage rentals and not having a good sleep, finally we found a place with great beds! Kim was a fantastic communicator, and anytime something came up that we needed support with, she was on top of it quickly. I'd come back for this reason alone. The space is beautiful, kitchen is fully stocked, view was stunning, all around a fantastic stay. Thanks again Kim! Can't wait to return.
