Premise

After returning from abroad following a breakup with his long-term partner, Justin plans to connect with his teenage daughter he gave up for adoption. His plans to make new memories with her at the family cottage go awry when he discovers his parents left it to his picture-perfect stepsister, Maisy-May.[2]

Cast

  • Jordan Gavaris as Justin, a gay man returning from abroad to reconnect with his birth daughter, Billie. In an effort to bond with her, Justin brings her to the lake where he spent most of his childhood summers.[3]
  • Julia Stiles as Maisy-May, Justin's picture-perfect stepsister. Conniving and ambitious, she inherited the family's lake cabin from her stepfather, to Justin's surprise and dismay.[2]
  • Madison Shamoun as Billie, Justin's city-loving teenage birth daughter whom he gave up for adoption. Billie is mixed-race: her mother is a Black woman and her father white.
  • Jared Scott as Killian (season 1), Maisy's and Victor's eldest son and Billie's love interest. Like Billie, Killian is mixed-race and has some understanding of what it feels like to be an outsider.
  • Terry Chen as Victor Lin, a Chinese-Canadian ex-pro hockey player, married to Maisy-May. Like his wife, Victor is ambitious and shows no hesitation to manipulate those around him to ensure his family succeeds.
  • Travis Nelson as Riley, a local artist, handyman, and store operator who is Justin's love interest.
  • Natalie Lisinska as Jayne, friend and sometime minion of Maisy, whom Maisy has passively bullied since their teen years.
  • Jon Dore as Wayne, Jayne's often clueless husband. Wayne is immature and a man-child but has genuine affection for his wife and daughters.
  • Carolyn Scott as Ulrika, a cabin owner of Swedish descent who grows cannabis that she shares with some community members.
  • Declan Whaley as Opal Lin, Maisy's and Victor's younger child who is genderqueer and identifies with Justin.
  • Emily Roman as Jeri Moore, Jayne's and Wayne's daughter who is the middle child of triplets and most like Jayne.
