The place is very convenient and we can get access to parks and skiing very easily. The owners are very nice and kind, they refunded me one night since I booked for two nights but can only stay for one night. Highly recommend it and will come back in summer.

We had a good relaxing weekend. Even though we were ineligible to enjoy the on-site amenities due to not being vaccinated, we had a great time. Check in and check out was easy.

Nice and accommodating resort
Nice resort with a nice and private beach, staff were nice and they accommodated my EV charging which made getting there and back home a lot easier. Our cottage had a lot of flies inside like a dozen or so, they were a bit annoying. I would’ve wished that they had a way to get rid of them when the cottages are empty. Otherwise the view was amazing, nice activities. We took the cheaper chalet, rooms and bathroom were small and nothing fancy but does the job

Just spent the weekend here and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We arrived in the dark and they made it very easy to get to our cabin. The cabin was very clean, lovely soft towels and all the utensils and gadgets were supplied. A little home away from home with a rustic feeling. The mornings were beautiful and quiet. The 3 deer that wandered up onto the beach was a peasant view with my morning coffee. A much apprecieated weekend away. Thank you !!

The scenic beauty around the property was the best !! The walking trails were a real treat. We did see a few deer's during our trail in much closer distance. We wanted to see how it does look in snow and are planning to revisit the place.

We stayed at the Hilltop, The place was just beautiful, very clean, well maintained. We hiked, the surroundings was peaceful and serene. A family of deers graced us with their presence as we were hiking and before we went home. One thing, I would have preferred window coverings in the washrooms. We had an awesome experience, we would definitely come back.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time though it was a bit chilly and rainy. The location was near provincial parks where we went hiking and waterfall chasing. There are also enough things to do within the property. The cottage was clean and kitchen was fully equipped. We really had a very relaxing and memorable stay. Thank you Blue Water Acres!

Staff was kind and friendly. Amenities look old but cleanliness of all amenities was excellent! (Better than any other hotels) I’ve worried it might be cold inside of cottage but heating system was great so I didn’t use my extra blanket I took from home. Beach&Hot water! Big fridge& clean and new gas bbq. All kitchen appliances were ready. Indoor pool&sauna also was so clean. My family’s gonna come here next summer&fall again. It’s great for driving this area.
