Cottage was nicely situated near mouth of Muskoka River. Could see Lake Muskoka. Lovely fire pit, dock to sit on and view the boat traffic and soak up the sun. Games room was a fun place to retire to for the evening. All the adults and grandkids had a fun time. Dogs enjoyed the walks and lots of white tail deer. Highly recommend this place.

Amazing family adventure

Awesome location and property - definitely not as expected for size of property and area based on photos. Busier channel of water than expected, but kids still had a blast in the lake. The friendly neighbor Jim made our stay incredible as he was able to help out with any small hiccups and kept the water toys inflated for the kids. Would recommend this property to families particularly with “teenage” kids! The host was easy to contact and was helpful with any questions/concerns we had. Everyone had a wonderful vacation at the cottage!

Excellent host!

Overall we had a fantastic time! The place/ location really grew on us! The games room was the bonus we never thought we needed but ended up creating such great memories there. It comfortably slept our group of 10! Great little beach around the corner! We had a couple issues that needed tending too, fluke things, with the A/C and fridge, that were tended to promptly by Jaimie and his property manager.. my only suggestion for his future renters would be offer enough cutlet, plates and bowls and cups for the amount of guests it can host! We had to buy disposable stuff cause this was lacking but made it so we didn’t have dishes to do so not a big deal. And the pictures make the property seam a little bigger and more private then what it is but we didn’t see any neighbours our whole time there so we lucked out in privacy! We would def rent again!!:)
