November 11 | Remembrance Day 🌺

For those who served.
For those who sacrificed.
For those who never made it home.
For the families who carried on.

Today, and every day, we remember.

May we never forget the courage, the sacrifice, and the lives forever changed in the name of freedom.

We will remember them.

Lest We Forget.

🍂 A little more time indoors? We've got you covered at Windrose Cottage!

As the days get cooler and the weather encourages us to spend a little more time inside, there's still so much to enjoy at Windrose!

Pick up a guitar, play a little piano, challenge someone to a board game, tackle a puzzle, or bring back some memories with our retro gaming systems. We've also got a PS4, books, colouring, a VHS player with a collection of movies, and more games than we can count!

Prefer to just curl up and relax? Every room has a Smart TV, and the living room has a big screen perfect for movie nights.

Sometimes the best part of getting away is having nowhere you need to be and nothing you have to do.

So grab a blanket, get cozy, and make your own kind of fun. Whether you're feeling competitive, creative, nostalgic, or just want to relax, there's a little something for everyone at Windrose.

🤍 Your getaway. Your pace. Your Windrose Way.

🌿 Something NEW is coming to Windrose Cottage in early 2027! 🤍

We've been keeping a little secret, and we're finally ready to share it with you!

As we continue to add those special touches that make a stay at Windrose feel like a true escape from the everyday, we're excited to announce that a beautiful outdoor sauna will soon be joining our cottage experience! 🧖‍♀️✨

Imagine a peaceful evening by the lake, a relaxing soak in the hot tub, and then unwinding in the warmth of your own private sauna. Another little way to slow down, reconnect, and make memories at Windrose.

But before we introduce this new addition, we'd love your input!

We're considering two options and would really appreciate hearing what you think.

🤍 Option 1: A small increase in our nightly rate, with sauna access included for everyone.

🤍 Option 2: Keep our nightly rate as it is and offer the sauna as an optional add-on for guests who would like to enjoy it.

We know everyone enjoys their time away differently, and we want to be thoughtful about what works best for our guests.

So tell us, which would you prefer? Option 1 or Option 2?

We can't wait to hear your thoughts and share more as we get closer to welcoming this beautiful new addition in early 2027!

Transparency is everything to me. Deleted the post regarding new airbnb policies because it was randomly messaging people. Have no idea why. It is some sort of glitch. Don't even know why it picked those it did. I checked all my settings and literally nothing on my end. Reported it to facebook but likely nothing will come of it at all.
I stand behind everything I said thou and have screenshots/video of it all. Hope you all have a fab day! Enjoy the photo of our beautiful serene lake.

🍂🧡 Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours! 🧡🍂

As we take a moment this Thanksgiving to reflect on the past year, we find ourselves feeling incredibly grateful.

For those who may not know, Jason and I are the proud co-owners of both Jason Roy Home Renovations Ltd. and Windrose Cottage. Two very different businesses, but both built on the same values — hard work, pride in what we do, personal connections, and a genuine appreciation for the people who put their trust in us.

To our renovation clients, thank you for trusting us with your homes. We know that your home is so much more than four walls. It's where life happens, families grow, and memories are made. Being invited into those spaces to help bring your visions to life is something we never take for granted.

To our Windrose Cottage guests, thank you for trusting us with your precious time away. Whether it's a family getaway, a weekend with friends, a special celebration, or simply a chance to slow down, knowing that our little piece of paradise has become part of your treasured memories means more to us than you know.

You may have noticed we've been a little quieter on social media lately! The truth is, both businesses are incredibly busy during the warmer months, and this year has certainly been no exception. Like many small business owners with seasonal demands, we spend much of that time working long days, making the most of every opportunity, and preparing for the slower winter months. Sometimes that means there's not much time left to share what we've been up to!

But please know that even when we're quiet on here, we never lose sight of the people who make it all possible.

To our clients, guests, returning customers, friends, family, and everyone who recommends us, shares our posts, leaves a review, or simply cheers us on — thank you. Your continued support allows us to keep doing what we love, and we are so very thankful.

From our family to yours, we wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with love, laughter, good food, and time with the people who matter most.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Jennifer & Jason

🍂 SOMETIMES THE BEST GETAWAYS ARE THE ONES YOU DIDN'T PLAN! 🍂

A few unexpected openings have popped up at Windrose Cottage, and perhaps one of them is just what you've been needing. ❤️

Fall has arrived at the lake, and while the seasons are changing, the beauty certainly hasn't disappeared. There's still so much to enjoy here — peaceful mornings overlooking the water, colourful autumn scenery, cozy evenings, a relaxing soak in the hot tub, and time to simply be together.

We know life is expensive these days, and sometimes a big vacation just isn't in the cards. But a couple of nights away, especially when shared with friends or family, can be a wonderful way to recharge without travelling far from home.

💕 A girls' getaway filled with laughter and late-night conversations.

🍁 A romantic escape with nowhere you need to be.

☕ A few quiet days to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy life's simpler pleasures.

✨ OUR NEWLY AVAILABLE DATES ✨

🍂 October 13, 14 & 15

🍂 October 28 & 29

❄️ November & December — plenty of availability, with just a couple of weekends already spoken for!

Whether you're planning a spontaneous escape or looking ahead to a little pre-holiday relaxation, we'd love to welcome you.

Because sometimes the most cherished memories aren't made on grand adventures. They're made in the quiet moments, with the people who matter most. ❤️
