The Management Team


Don & Marie Gage purchased Willow Beach Cottages in 1996 and therefore have over 10 years of resort management experience on top of the 15-20 years of management experience in other fields.

They transplanted themselves to this lovely country lakeside setting from the city of London, and therefore are aware of the demands of city life and needs of customers coming from the city.

Their children Lisa and Martin have been a critical part of the management team over the years but, for the most part are living away from Haliburton County at this time. We love to help others discover the beauty and vitality of this wonderful community in which we live.

No matter what the season there is always something to do .. something to suit all interests and ability levels. We're always happy to help you find something that will enhance your cottage experience.

As we move forward with the concept of Carefree Cottaging we hope that we will come into contact with people from all walks of life who hope to engage in a true cottage experience. Many of our customers are more like family after 10 years of contact .. we're hoping to expand the number of people who count themselves in this group.
