Wonderful Location

Our family (5 of us for one night & 2 additional kids one night who slept on the huge air mattress they have available!) loved staying here while attending Mariposa Folk Festival! It was incredibly clean, had all the amenities you need, and in a beautiful setting. Sharon was quick to respond to any messages & very helpful. The location was really close to Casino Rama but you would never know it, as it was incredibly peaceful & quiet!

Definitely a Hidden Gem

My family and I had a great time. We felt right at home. The house was clean and well stocked for our kitchen needs. We used the Blackstone Grill for breakfast and dinner. The covered deck was enjoyed by everyone. There was a lot of mosquitoes but citronella candles and bug spray was supplied. The location was fantastic as it's literally at the back of the Casino. I would return

Wonderful Long Weekend Stay

We were a group of 6 adults who stayed here over the May long weekend and we could not be more pleased with the experience! The property was so beautiful and the location was a perfect escape. The cottage itself was immaculate and stocked with everything we could possibly need (even down to citronella candles and makeup wipes!) which made our stay super comfortable and convenient. The attention to detail in maintaining and preparing the cottage was evident, and it truly felt like a home away from home while also being so beautiful and unique. I would definitely return and recommend this rental!

Found a real gem

Hidden gem is a beautiful property that is chock full of amenities. There is a full spice rack along with all kinds of cooking supplies. It's close to Orillia and a couple public beaches, and you can see Casino Rama around the corner. We really enjoyed our stay. A couple things to note is the area is very swampish, so mosquitoes are quite heavy outside (the owner provides mosquito repellant and coils). Nevertheless, we decided against using the fire pit at night, for this reason. Great visit, would stay again!
