"We had an amazing 2 night stay at this cottage with a group of friends. The location was fantastic—peaceful and beautiful, just what we needed to relax and spend quality time together. The cottage itself was very clean and comfortable, with great furniture and everything we needed for a relaxing stay. You could really feel the care that went into making the place welcoming. And a special thank you to the owner for being so helpful and accommodating. We made some great memories and would definitely love to come back again. Its a hidden Gem!"

"Sheldon was an excellent host who replied promptly to all of our questions, and his responses often gave more informative details than we often expected. The cottage and property were completely in line with with what was posted on VRBO, and Lake of Bays was a lovely setting for our late summer holiday.

"This cottage is an oasis. From the moment you walk in the front door, you feel its calm and ease. The main floor is open with a beautiful dining room table and well equipped kitchen. The screened in porch is wonderful to avoid the bugs or the rain. The bedrooms upstairs are comfortable and have soft linen and nice pillows. Lots of towels both for showers and also for the beach. The owner Susan is very responsive and helpful. The lake is clean and beautiful. We enjoyed paddle boarding and listening to the resident loons. I highly recommend this cottage."

Muskoka Cottage with a Sandy Beach

"Perfect cottage for our family! Lots of space inside and out for rainy days, bonfires and lawn games. Lake views were beautiful - morning was the best time to be on the dock. Cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and had tons of character too. Sandy beach made it easy to get in the lake and the floating dock was great for jumping. Lake was shallow when we were there but no weeds and ideal for canoeing. We had a wonderful time at this cottage - highly recommend."

"We recently spent 4 days at Maggie and Louis' beautiful cottage. It is absolutely clean and immaculate, and is on a beautiful inland lake that was quiet with very few motorized boats. The highlight was the dock where we spent our days fishing, and using the kayak, rowboat, and standup paddle board. We also loved the Muskoka porch! The cottage was supplied and stocked with everything we needed. We are already talking about coming back next year!"
