Spacious clean accommodations
This trip started out as a couples trip to the Wet Whistle wine fest but evolved into a women’s trip instead. The location is close to downtown, ground zero to a great bar and bakery but far enough away from the hustle and bustle. The home had ample rooms and common areas and was very spacious and clean. The hosts did a very good job communicating with us. We would definitely stay there again and think it was a great value.

We enjoyed staying here for our second time now! The home is very clean and accommodated us 8 adults comfortably. Restaurants are close by for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Algoma is a lovely small fishing town that we enjoy coming to and having this wonderful place to stay is a great bonus! bonus!

End-of-Summer Vacation Getaway
Catherine and Rob are wonderful hosts. They are very responsive. The home is charming and spacious on the inside and offers nice interior amenities. The view of the lake is obscured through buildings and power lines - I would probably say it is more lake view than lakeside. The 10 minute walk to the lake/beach is enjoyable in the town of Algoma. The outside area doesn’t offer a place to sit and relax - there is a large grass area down from the home that you could entertain a large gathering but its location doesn’t make for a relaxing area. On a side note (nothing to do with the home) Algoma is more of a long weekend getaway - most things are closed Monday and Tuesday and several are closed on Wednesday’s and even Sunday’s. There is a cute little bakery/cafe/ice cream shop down the street from the home that is wonderful.

Annual Fishing Trip
Great place to stay, my family started doing an annual fishing trip and this was perfect for us coming from all over the state. The house was beautifully furnished, very clean and well maintained. There was great communication with the hosts and everyone really enjoyed the stay. The only suggestion that I may have is having one of the bedrooms converted to a couple of twin beds. But that is just a suggestion and we are going to be staying again for our trip next year! Thank you again Rob and Cathy for the wonderful experience.

Or son got married over the weekend and we booked this home because it had everything we needed and enough room for our family to stay together. The property was very well maintained and clean. The beds were comfortable, and I loved the shower! The house is well stocked . The he owners are friendly and our communication with them always had a prompt response. I would definitely come back to this place.

Absolutely Perfect!!
The hosts, Cathy and Rob, are quick to respond, and very accommodating, although we really had no issues to resolve! The home was beautifully furnished, very clean, and very well stocked with everything you would need. My sisters and I brought our 90 year old mom back to her hometown for 3 days. We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay again if we get the opportunity to return to Algoma! Thank you Cathy and Rob! Nan p.

Girlfriends Lakeside retreat
Our group of friends stayed at this cozy Lakeside retreat. It was wonderful having four bedrooms, so each person got their own room. Accommodations were tidy upon arrival with ample parking for three cars. There was plenty of linen, blankets, and towels. The home was nicely decorated and a pleasant environment. It was a great getaway to a small town where we spent most of the day, snacking and enjoying each other’s company. There may have been a glass of wine or two shared too. We went on a walk into town and visited a few boutiques. Then we had lunch at a wonderful place with white linen tablecloths. We had a wonderful time making memories of our deep friendship. Thank you Cathy and Rob!

Good - suggesting some improvements
Overall very good. However little disappointed - because there was no A/C. One BR with office desk got very warm - difficult to sleep. The house is very well updated & nice. We like the rain shower in the Bath room. Additionally all of us believe that the windows should be updated - because very hard to open & very old. The other improvement we can suggest is lockable bath room doors. Beds were very good & comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
