Perfect Cottage Experience
The drive to the cottage was a beautiful part of the stay. We enjoyed the surrounding towns and the long country roads that took you to and from paradise. The cottage was clean, well stocked, and we all agreed the beds were comfortable. Frank, the turtle, captured many hearts-a fun, unexpected ‘host’! We spent hours on the lake thanks to the paddle boards, canoe, and paddle boat. Cooking and eating for our group was both easy and enjoyable. Lauren was quick to message me and was a warm and helpful host. Thank you!

Fun for the whole family
The cottage is very well equipped , not only with all of the supplies who could ever think of but also lots of water toys to play with on the tranquil lake. Frank ate all of our fruits and vegetables so we ate a lot of bbq meat all week! The hikes were fun and we did a lot of exploring. The dog slept very well at night due to all of the activity she had during the day. Thanks for a great trip!

The house was beautiful and well stocked. The property is large, private, but above all just so full of nature that it’s hard to describe. Peaceful lake.

Property is beautiful, great view, walking path around the lake was well cleared. Serene. Lauren and Larry provided access to paddleboards, paddleboat etc and were very engaging during the orientation to their beautiful cottage. Frank the turtle kept us all well amused. Absence of motorized watercraft was wonderful. Campfires at night were beautiful as well. Thank you Lauren and Larry for offering your beautiful cottage to our family to enjoy for a most wonderful week of making memories.

Peacful Paradise
This was the second time we have stayed in this beautiful piece of heaven on Dube lake. The cottage is clean and bright with all the amenities a family could want/need. The property is beautiful. Dog heaven, chewing grass and chasing frogs. Plenty of non-motorized watercraft on a calm quiet lake. Owners, Lauren and Larry, are wonderful. 5/5, would stay again. :)

Lauren and Larry were wonderful hosts and the cottage is fantastic. Already trying to figure out when we can go back. Our 1 year old and 2 pups also loved the property. Frank the turtle was great entertainment as well! Dont hesitate to book!

We enjoyed our stay. Very clean residence and has everything you might need for entertainment and cooking. Hosts are very friendly and accommodating people. If you enjoy nature, quiet atmosphere in a comfortable setting, smell of wood you will enjoy it. They have lots of activities (table games, hot tub, sleds in winter, barbecue ..) It’s not easy to find everything you enjoy in one place, so I definitely recommend

A perfect vacation in a beautiful, peaceful setting
My husband and I and my son, daugther-law , 12 year old grandson and dog stayed for a week at this beautiful property. It was exactly as the pictures showed it. The lake is small but very quiet and so pretty. The swimming off the dock was lovely .My grandson loved the paddle board and kayaks provided. The surrounding forest was perfect for walks with and without the dog. The cottage itself was really well equipped, clean, pretty and very, very comfortable. It was perfect for getting together for family meals, movies and board games and yet had lots of space so that my son and grandson could play Nintendo on one level while the grandparents read and relaxed on another. Lots of fun games and early morning coffee in the hot tub as the sun came up was wonderful. Our hosts were lovely. They met us to walk through the cottage and were available throughout our stay to answer questions. They really could not have been nicer or more helpful. It really was a perfect vacation for everyone in our party, lots to do in a beautiful, peaceful setting. Highly recommended.

Perfect Place for a Multi-generational Reunion
The Dube Lakehouse provided a wonderful place for our family to reunite after the pandemic. Great activities for the teens and adults as well as separate sleeping areas that allowed us to get away from each other when needed. Peaceful non-motorized lake and beautiful dock were much appreciated by all. And Frank the turtle provided a lot of entertainment! Thank you Lauren and Larry.

Private Dream Retreat
Over the last several years, we have done five different cottage rentals. This one was by far the best to date. Some of the special things that stood out from other rentals: -Lauren and Larry greet you in person for a full walk-through of the property and make you feel very welcome -the kitchen is fully stocked with all the condiments you could want and even some food and a fire was laid out in the outdoor fire pit -the 60-acre property is very private with only three other cottages on the lake, which is small and warm, which makes for great swimming. -there is a very friendly and tame giant snapping turtle named Frank who will hang out with you while swimming or spending time on the beach or dock, (and who prefers strawberries to raspberries). This is not as scary as it sounds, and was very entertaining Other smaller points that really helped elevate this week include the 30 min long private hiking trail around the lake, the abundant kayaks, SUPs, canoe and paddle boat for exploring, the large swath of raspberry bushes that provided tasty snacks.

Dream vacation!
Can't say enough about this beautiful cottage and the wonderful hosts, Lauren and Larry. All of our family members, from ages 26-95, thoroughly enjoyed the location, amenities, privacy and peaceful location. Just like staying in a 5 star hotel. All the toys you could want - paddleboards, kayaks, etc. - and easy hiking trails. Great for dogs too! Highly recommend!

Lauren and Larry were fantastic hosts and the cottage and property were flawless. The check-in was great with Lauren and Larry taking time to show us where everything was and the "cottage" was fully stocked and had everything you need/want for a relaxing stay. The property was very quiet and the 40 acres were great to enjoy some solitude with my family and even three 15 year olds found they always had something new to do every day for a week. We highly recommend Lauren and Larry's place and hope to be back soon.
