Thank you, Jim and Gail, for the warm welcome and comfortable stay at your resort. Although short, our stay at the Bewdley Cottage Resort was filled with excitement. We were able to see the salmon run at the ladder, enjoy a leisurely walk on the Bruce Trail along the river, go fishing and enjoy a nightly camp fire with our neighbors. We fell right at home in our cottage. We had barbecues on our back porch and had all the required home facilities at our fingertips. Great set up, well located, comfortable and pet friendly. A+

Great simple cottage on Rice Lake. Very good use of the space inside. Lots of windows. Really close to town where you can find an LCBO and a place for groceries. Boat I rented ran great. Jim is a pretty cool guy.

It was our 3rd time in 2 years. Kids loved it. It was nice to see them enjoy the cottage and have fun. As always, Jim was accommodating and did a fire for them. This is, our home away from home.
