Cedars of Lake Eugenia

I’ve been here twice, once just after Labour Day in September (Summer-​ish), and once on the weekend before Christmas (Winter!). The place is fantastic and each cottage comes fully equipped with everything you expect and more — bed sheets, all cooking equipment, spices, abundant amounts of plates cups and utensils. The owners are extremely friendly, and also keep chickens and sell freshly-​laid eggs (I didn’t get a chance to try though). Also on the premises is a games room equipped with a ping pong table, a pay-​per-​use pool table, foosball table, shuffleboard table and a pay-​per-​use washer/​dryer.
The cottages and chalets (we’ve stayed in both before) all come with electric heating, as well as a wood stove to keep yourselves warm. The water is clean and drinkable. The washrooms are updated and modern. The larger cottages and chalets come with a pull-​out couch that will fit an extra couple people. BBQ and associated tools are of course included.
On the Summer trip, we went canoeing on Lake Eugenia (the resort has a beachfront on this lake, and they rake their shoreline of all the debris that occasionally washes up). Past the road bridge, lake Eugenia is very vast and beautiful. There are also paddleboats to use, and both of these are included. Kayaks are rentable at an additional cost. All the buildings have easy access, but the chalets are the ones that sit closest to the waterfront.
On our Winter trip, we used the cottage resort as a base and went to the nearby Blue Mountain ski resort (about ½ hour), coming back to cook delicious meals.
