Nice shack for an ice fishing trip with friends
House was as described, and the host (Jamie) replied to texts very promptly if we had a question, the hot tub and steam bath was essential after a long day of drilling holes chasing walleye! We had 7 guys in the house for some ice fishing on lake Winnipeg. We typically fish down by the mouth so we just trailered to Warner rd, it was a bit out of the way but it wasn’t an issue. We wanted to try fishing out in front of the house but ran out of time. The house worked out great!

Everything is what the pictures show, couple small things hottub full of sand, water has pretty unique odor, coffee maker doesn't work, sectuonal is broken but comfy none the less. Overall cabin was fully set up and nice stuff, location was perfect for fishing, and hosting friends would definitely recommend renting to anybody who wants to be off the grid somewhat and relax.

Beautiful but dirty
Place was beautiful but we needed to clean upon arrival. Kitchen counters and dishes were filthy. Everything was dusty and hadn’t been vacuumed. Living room couch stained and broken. View was spectacular. Masterbedroom was nice. This place has a lot of potential but I wouldn’t recommend it as is.

Aged with some upgrades
The pictures featured the best this cabin had to offer. As expected from reviews, no wood for firepit, no water cooler and the house water was a bit offensive even though we live in a home with well water! The access to to the cabin was easy, nice lakefront spot and very quiet. Beach was lacking at the cabin, but walked along in front of neighbors and to near the marina. Overall the kids liked exploring the beach down the way and it was a good getaway from school, work and making family memories. Access to tv, wifi was perfect for rainly & teen time. Great area to dine together, play games and socialize in open living area. The hot tub was a bit old, slight odor to it and sadly had some sand in it although instructions were clear to shower prior to use. Thank you for the experience of cabin life on the lake!

Wonderful family getaway on Lake Winnipeg!
Enjoyed a relaxing family weekend in beautiful lake front cottage with 4 adults and two happy dogs. Jamie was a welcoming host who stayed at another cottage within walking distance. Hot tub was a nice touch, had a few fires and enjoyed the nearby fireworks show over the lake. Short drive to Gimli to pick up dinner one night and walk the pier and visit a few local shops. Highly recommend the host and property! Barry & Heather Milne Winnipeg

Beautiful big cottage
Lots of room and comfortable living space. A nice little extra would have been to have some wood included so we could have had a fire in the pit. Also not good drinking water, would have been more convenient to have a water cooler in the kitchen instead of carting bottled water.

Great stay. Relaxing and lots of space for a large family.
We truly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The big windows and the lake view were awesome, even if it was cooler outside at times. The hot tub was a great hit. The appliances were new, clean, and worked great. A clothes dryer rack would have been great for the towels after using the hot tub, but the dryer did the job, too. I'm glad I brought some larger cooking pots for our family of 9. We all enjoyed our stay a lot!

The property is in a quiet cottage area... with a Spectacular view of the lake. It is nice to have a hot tub to Enjoy. Jamie was great to communicate with. Excellent instructions.

Nice Place depending on what you are looking for
The location was great and the cabin was very comfortable to accommodate 7 people and three dogs. The kitchen is quite well equipped and easy to have multiple people cooking in. Just a little more upkeep (some repairs are needed) and attention to detail (beds made with no top sheets, lots of cobwebs on deck furniture) would be great. Not the owners fault, but the high water levels made the water access difficult for my aging parents who have mobility issues (beach access was why we picked in the first place), and mosquitoes were terrible, making it nearly impossible to enjoy the outside in the evening. Owner was very easy to reach and great to communicate with.

Comfortable home
Rented this property with my husband and 2 adult children. Home was large and comfortable, set right on the lake with a lovely view. Everything we needed for an enjoyable time. Cleanliness could be improved however. Kitchen is aging, mattress covers are stained and hot tub maintenance could be better.

Beautiful cabin with a great view
This cabin exceeded our expectations. We went here for our honeymoon and we hope to come back again with friends. Jamie was very easy to contact and made the whole process very smooth. The cabin was large and was equipped with everything we needed. We loved the hot tub and the large sectional couch in front of the smart TV. You really can’t beat the location either, being right on the water and only being 15 minutes north of Gimli. Hope to be back soon!

Overall a beautiful place to stay, a few improvements could make it 5 star
This was a lovely place to stay for a girls getaway. Gorgeous views and spacious. Kitchen was very well stocked and Jamie was helpful in answering our questions. We had a fantastic time there and will treasure our time spent together. A few improvements could make this 5 stars. Food residue (?) was left on some some of the surfaces; we did feel a need to wipe down counters and tables on arrival. There were no top sheets on some of the beds; we would have felt more comfortable sleeping under a clean sheet. One of the blankets in the upstairs bedroom closet had an unpleasant stain on it - we left it out for the cleaners when we left. The tiles are falling off the wall by the hot tub… not ideal to have them falling while using the hot tub or moving the cover. Hope this helps the owners make someone else’s stay even better! We would certainly return.

Great Cottage
We rented this cottage for a little ice fishing get-away. There is great fishing nearby at Riverton & Gimli. The cabin is well-appointed with a well equipped kitchen and large bedrooms. The hot tub was a great bonus, it was nice to relax in after a long day on the ice. Communication was great - Jamie was very quick to respond whenever we had questions. Will definitely stay here again, looking forward to checking it out in the summer time!

ARNES A-Frame Adventure
This was an outstanding property with a GREAT lake front location on Lake Winnipeg. Clean Beautiful and Spacious A-Frame with great bedrooms and two bathrooms. Wonderful dining area off of very well equipped and extremely usable kitchen, also a nice propane BBQ. Relaxing sitting area off of dining area with comfortable couches looking through an all window front. Super Deck out front of A-Frame looking out over the lake with plenty of chairs and a table. A large lawn area for our dogs and lawn games. A large garage to use for storing and cleaning up our paddleboards. 2 full sized fridges and a refreshment fridge. A great hot tub room off the side of the kitchen leading to the deck. A metal staircase down to a small but wonder little sand beach. Very close to Gimli for shopping and picking up items if necessary. A truly relaxing and wonderful experience. The owner was very communicative providing additional directions to get the property - they were very useful. The rules/regulations were very clearly laid out and reasonable. All in all a GREAT Time. If you are looking for a relaxing quiet spot on the lake I highly recommend this site. THANK YOU! We definitely would consider returning.

Great location.
Very nice property and we were not disappointed. Pay attention to the directions your host gives you or you might wind up in Arborg Manitoba. Search using the street address and Gimli, MB. Print off a map and it's easy. Fresh fish at the processing plant down the road should not be missed, cheap and delicious. Going for a walk around the development is relaxing and a chance to see what other cottages are like. Remember a vacation is what you make of it, and with this property you are off to a great start.

The property is well appointed and very comfortable. The view of the lake is spectacular through the a-frame windows. The host/owner is accessible, helpful and a pleasure with whom to deal. We stayed over a winter weekend and had a great time walking in the woods, xcountry skiing, hot-tubing, and enjoying great meals together.

Our stay at Arnes
Our overall experience was quite satisfying. We enjoyed our stay at this place. He provided the information we needed before we arrived. The house was clean and nice. The only reason that I didn’t give 5 stars was the hygiene of the hot tub and the fact that we were asked to bring our own sheets and pillow covers.

Thanks for taking the time for the review. Apologies for the cleanliness of the tub but I couldn't help you out without being contacted. A quick message and I would of had the cleaner come over and take a look. The guests are made aware before booking the house that they are to bring their own sheets, pillow cases and towels. Other than that Im glad you enjoyed the house.
