Gorgeous Lakefront Cottage, Private beach & Ice Fishing ShackšŸŽ£ 45 min from Edm

Beautiful Cottage on Lake Isle with room for your whole family and friends to get away. Only 45 minutes from Edmonton. Great views from the massive two story deck.

Come and enjoy all the fun the lake has to offer. In summer you can go boating, fishing, hiking, and have a fire right next to the water! In winter you can go Ice fishing, sledding, or skating and come back and warm up in front of the wood burning fireplace while you watch a movie.

We have games, toboggans, books, and more!

A Short Getaway

Some friends and I stay in this beautiful home for two nights. The view of the water and the quiet and well appointed space made for a restful couple of days. We will certainly be back.

An Amazing Place to Escape

I spent two days here with work colleagues. We enjoyed the large space to cook, eat and talk. The bedrooms are well appointed, beds are comfortable and the deck with the view was fabulous. We stayed in late September and had a great time. We will be back.

Lake views, relaxation, & ice fishing

We had a wonderful experience staying at this gorgeous lakehouse. The host was so helpful and accommodating with the booking process and even left us a care package and bottle of Prosecco. The house had everything we needed and more. The ice fishing shack was a huge bonus and we all caught fish while comfortable and toasty warm. I would happily rent this place again in summer or winter.

Lakehouse weekend fun

Great lake activities and view. Lots of amenities for family's. Kitchen was ok to cook in- could be more pots and basic cooking ingredients. Cleaniness of bed sheets and and upkeep not this best.

Family Christmas

Had a lovely family Christmas at the lake house. Host was very responsive and helpful. The property could use a deep clean (walls, furniture, etc.) and some of the linens could be replaced, but the kitchen was very well appointed and we had plenty of room for the 14 of us. All in all, a good experience.

Annual Family Weekend at the Lake

Every year we take a family weekend trip to a lake cabin to close off the summer together - our family consists of us, our four adult children and their husband and wives and our 3 grand children - this year we chose Lake Isle and rented this gorgeous Lakehouse - the house itself was wonderful - the kitchen had all we needed and the open floorplan let us all be together. The grandkids enjoyed the toy room and the beach toys and we all loved the fire pit each night - the bed rooms were nice and plenty of space we brought the kayaks and launched in off the deck- all in all it was a lovely family weekend and weā€™d definitely rent again. iā€™ve already recommended it to a friend for her family as well !
