"New Review"
Just wanted to let you know that we are settled in at Muskoka White House. The road was plowed and the steps cleared, and the cottage is in immaculate order. Heidi has done a terrific job again. Thank you for the vase of roses - they are lovely. Have a great family day weekend!
We made it to the cottage safely last night.
Thank you for the beautiful flowers and the candle. That was really generous and very much appreciated.
The cottage is beautiful and everything is perfect.
Thanks again.
We stayed at the beautiful White House. The cottage was perfectly furnished with extremely beautiful views of the lake. We had lots of space and amenities. Great beds, bedwear, towels. Couldn't ask for more. The cabana was especially our "hangout spot".
Attractive modern architecture (at "White House"). Well equipped. Great dock and lakefront living. Outstanding views. Not too much boat traffic. 15 minutes from Port Carling. Jayne's very prompt response time was outstanding. David's introduction to the house technology was thorough and understandable. The response to some storm problems was greatly appreciated.
The cottage was clean and beautiful and provided my family with days of quiet enjoyment. Jayne was available to answer any of our questions and made sure that the front walk was clean, the heat was on and that there was plenty of firewood available for our use. Our stay at "The White House" was one of the best family holidays I can remember. We look forward to going back!!
