Amazing Stay!!!
As soon as we saw the house, it was beautiful and we couldn’t wait to begin our vacation! The house was very clean, amazing views and a dream away from home. We loved how the house was in the middle of everything if you had to make a run to Walmart or shopping. We especially loved the water view and how quiet and peaceful it was. We will definitely return! Thank you Greg for being a great host

Magical Snow Escape
As always, this property is wonderful, particularly in the wintertime! There is lots to do outdoors in the surrounding area. The hosts even provided some treats for Valentines Day, which was very thoughtful! We look forward to returning again!

Our daughter had a blast and enjoyed her ski camp! Our dog was in heaven. There was great privacy as well. We highly recommend it & definitely love to come back.

Beautiful getaway
We stayed at this beautiful property for thanksgiving. It was a lovely experience. The cottage is located in a very quiet. serene location right on Muskoka river. We throughly enjoyed the views from the living room and the warmth from the log fire. Greg, was an amazing host. He even let us check out later in the day. I would go back again. Highly recommend this place.

Fabulous home and wonderfully pristine river location
Greg was a wonderful host. When something went wrong, he responded immediately with a solution to the problem. Sleeping arrangements should be considered as sometimes, depending on ages and relationships, beds need to be assigned appropriately. We had one male almost 13 and two girls ages 15 for part of our stay.

Exceptional vacation
The cottage is stunning and luxurious. Exactly as advertised and more. Swam off the dock and paddled the river to falls every day. Rainy days in the Muskoka room are what it was designed for. Loved the days we spent there making happy family memories. Hope to spend time there again in the future. Thank you Greg and Kathleen for a wonderful vacation.
