We enjoyed our stay at the lake house, beautiful setting right on the lake with farmland and fields. Great location for restaurants, beaches and sightseeing. The lake house is very cozy and quaint, and pet friendly. It could use a deep clean as there were cobwebs and dust bunnies but otherwise a very nice place to stay.

Wonderful place to stay. So relaxing and peaceful. We spent the majority of our time just sitting outside by the lake and at the fire pit. Our dog was so happy to swim and play ball. Will definitely be returning!

Could not have dreamt of a better stay! Pauline’s property is so beautiful and relaxing, and the weekend access to the fabulous White Gate Farmstand makes for a delicious and convenient setup. The cabin was charming, clean, well-equipped, and totally comfortable. The lake access is every bit as convenient as it appears on the listing, and we are already looking forward to our next stay!

Another wonderful stay

This was our 3rd stay at the Ice House at White Fate Farm. As always, the rustic Ice House cabin was cozy, peaceful, and a comfortable summer getaway from the city. The little kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal. The foldout bed in the livingroom was comfortable enough for my teen son, while the bedroom in the loft is very comfy. The view from the large picture window is beautiful. There are kayaks and paddle boards to enjoy and a friendly school of sunfish that will swim right up to you. We loved going for walks around the picturesque grounds and over to the farm stand for their selection of goodies. The Ice House is a relaxing, rustic stay for nature and farm lovers.

Wonderful Staycation

We are local to the area and wanted a mini vacation without having to travel far. The cabin was absolutely perfect! The gigantic picture window, the private dock, and quiet farmland surroundings were the highlights of the property. Seeing the fog dance across the lake during sunrise was magical!

The BEST mini vacation!

The icehouse at white gate farm is magical!! From the moment property manager Kevin Welcomed us, to the moment we left, we were home. The produce and breads made on the farm were exceptional. Our only regret is that we didn’t book a longer stay. Next time. And three WILL be a next time.

Our weekend getaway

Super quiet gorgeous view from the massive window overlooking the lake! We were free to roam around the grounds, being pet friendly was also a huge win as the dog loved running around by the lake and in the field. Kevin made check in and check out super easy. We will be back for sure! The farm stand Saturday morning was also amazing
