Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Great place for a big group
Very clean cottage with lots of room to sleep and entertain. We had a quad group of 9 guys but could have easily fit lots more. Extra building to entertain and cook in was ideal for our group. Rooms were decorated with solid pine and everything seemed newly renovated in the main house and bunkies. Bunkies were pretty good too, no complaints at all about them. Having washer and dryer was great too. Whole area is set up for hunting groups or quad groups. Nick was great to deal with and the next door neighour was friendly and helpful. Only downfall was the 9 km on the road to get to the trails, which was really minor. Will be back again someday for sure.

Great and Spacious Cottage Close to Algonquin Park
We stayed with a large group of 12 people and 4 cars at Nick's Retreat and were surprised by how spacious, well equipped and clean the entire property was. It comes with enough room and facilities to easily accommodate even large groups. We'll be happy to stay there again for our next trip to Algonquin park!

A fantastic family vacation!
The accommodations at Nick's retreat were more then comfortable. The spacious kitchen for cooking and clean, newly renovated bathroom made traveling with kids a breeze. Not to mention the convenience of a large mudroom which is a must have for an outdoors vacation. A large washer and dryer are available in the house and easy to access- or dry your clothes in the Canadian breeze on one of the two very nice clothes lines outback. The yard is perfect for a picnic, campfire or kids who just need space to play. Or, drive a very short distance down the road and enjoy the small, amazingly clean and beauitful, beach/park on Bark Lake. My daughter made sure we stopped by the park daily! Maynooth and Barry's Bay make nice out-and-about activities, both are full of local artwork and friendly people. Drive a bit further and explore the route 60 corridor of Algonquin Park. The logging museum there is entirely outdoors and was a wonderful stop for our energetic pre-schooler. Access to water is plentiful even within 5 minutes from the house. We boated daily and fished with endless success. This is a great place to get your kids involved with the outdoors. My daughter never missed her tablet and begged to stay longer! However, the highlight of our trip was the hospitality we received from both Nick and other neighbors. Thank you!
