As photographer and kayaker, this location was ideal for my exploration of Benson Lake. I managed to journey my way by water through the lake and discover it's treasures. Many areas of calm water barely disturbed by the wind provides stunning reflections. An orchestra of a wide variety of birds kept me entertained in the quiet and undisturbed sound of nature. The location also provided quick trips to surrounding trails for hiking and other lakes and rivers for more kayaking. I only had 3 nights of stay in the spring, but I am sure to return in the autumn to indulge more with the lovely fall colours.

This property is incredible. It’s a smaller but cute and comfortable cottage. It was clean and they were very accommodating to us. The hosts were friendly and ready to help. It’s hidden in the trees but not too remote either! With wifi included it was a comfortable stay. We were able to see multiple deers around the property and felt very safe. There was little to no bugs surprisingly! The lake is a 30 second walk where you can enjoy fishing. We were able to catch a couple different bass and it was a huge adrenaline rush. Westpoint is a good little town to walk thru and don’t forget about the many awesome tours Kingston offers less than an hour away!

A slice of paradise! The whole experience exceeded expectations. The property is deep in the bush with a few friendly neighbours. The hosts were inviting, caring and overall great people. Our dog had glorious freedom and a few friendly neighbourhood dogs to socialize with. I cannot recommend this place enough. A great time for the family. We can’t wait to visit again with a couple more little ones. Thank you for sharing your space with us!
The night skies are incredible.
Beautiful view from the kitchen and deck.

Lovely cottage

Tatiana was a super host who made sure we were comfortable and all our questions were answered. The view from the cottage was beautiful and relaxing. Tatiana let us rent her kayaks and we had a great time paddling on the water. I had to work one day of our visit and was happy that the Internet was strong enough to handle a Teams call with high quality. There were lots of cute touches around the cottage and a nice outdoor spot for eating and relaxing outside. We're new to Vrbo and didn't see to bring our own linens, but it's important to know this includes towels and dish/hand towels.We'd definitely stay again in the future!

We had a lovely time at Tatiana' s cottage. She was very attentive to our needs and responds immediately. Something to keep in mind is no supplies are provided. Bring your own soaps, toilet paper, paper towels, bath towels and sheets. No direct swimming from the house. We are planning on returning despite these comments. Thanks again Tatiana
