About this property

Deep Lake, Sun And Shade All Day, Numerous Decks And Docks, Drive To The Door

This property rents for weekly Monday to Monday periods only. With a maximum of 6 people. I do not have instant book because I screen my renters to ensure a good fit for you, for me and for my neighbours. No pets allowed unless given permission by owner after booking. This is a Beautiful 3 bedroom executive cottage on deep Big Bob lake with gentle sloping waterfront, and all the amenities you could need; 3 large bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, living room overlooking the lake; country kitchen (with expandable maple table) and large screen porch with comfortable furniture and eating area also overlooking the lake. As well, 2 large decks with ample furniture, dining room, large floating dock, garage, beautiful gardens, lots of parking and drive straight to the door. Boat launching can be arranged. Row boat, kayaks and a canoe are provided on this clean quiet lake that is great for swimming, boating, exploring and relaxing. Fire pit off the lower lake deck with wood provided. Minden is just a short 5 km away where you will find everything you may need. There are a number of steps leading to the lake and this property is not appropriate for individuals with mobility challenges. It is kid friendly, but toddlers would need a hand descending the stairs.
Master bedroom has a king bed with a large ensuite that has double sinks and walk in shower. Other bedrooms are spacious, with queen beds. Bathroom 2 is a standard bathroom with tub and shower. On the main floor is a powder room. In the full walk out basement is a large den/TV area with, two comfortable couches. A Smart T.V. with DVD player, satellite and an assortment of movies and games are available on sight. Ping pong table is also provided along with other games for outside fun. A high standard BBQ with all the equipment you may need and propane is included.

Just a great cottage for a family vacation
People usually use reviews to complain about their experience, but I can't think of anything to complain about so I'll just list what was really terrific. The property is really beautiful and well maintained outside. There is a choice of deep water or beach entry and a canoe and kayak. Inside it has tons of space, more than we needed for four people. The kitchen is fantastic with absolutely everything you could possibly need and then some. There are just so many indoor spaces that I could go on forever talking about them. The TV room in particular is very well set up so groups can watch together. Everything combined to give us one of our best cottage experiences ever. I definitely recommend our hosts and their property.

About the host

Hosted by Brenda Brouwers Owner

Host profile image
Barry and I built this cottage/house in 1989. Our family has grown up on this lake and the property is kid friendly. We are both retired professionals that worked in the community where we own the cottage. I have had a family cottage on the same lake since 1968. We are both very active and love to swim, canoe, boat, ski (water, downhill, and crosscountry) right from our door. In the winter we love to snowshoe and ski on the lake or along trails very near our house. We both moved to Minden as young adults and made Minden our home.

Why they chose this property

This is a great family destination that has repeat clients most of the summer. VRBO does not make it easy for owners to screen potential renters. We live in this community and respect our neighbours and our lake community. We only book to families and small groups of people (Max 6). This is NOT a party place, it's a quiet restful cottage. Soooo, Be aware I do NOT instant book anyone! If you book this location you have to be willing to cancel on your side (VRBO's cancellation by owners makes it difficult for owners to cancel without penalty to the owner), if after interviewing it is deemed we are not a match the potential renter will cancel the booking with of course no penalty to them.
