Some Thoughts from Our Guests

We had a lovely weekend at this charming cottage! The place is cozy and well-equipped with everything we needed, making it feel like a true home away from home. The location is perfect—right on the lake, offering a little slice of heaven with stunning views and plenty of opportunities for water activities. It’s also conveniently close to the town center, with a fantastic food truck just four minutes away. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring our stay was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

This lovely a-frame was the perfect spot for a winter getaway. It has it all: views of beautiful forest, a roaring fire, tasteful interior, outdoor fire pit, walking trails, a family of deer that visits, and is close to so many other great outdoor winter amenities. We didn’t want to leave! 
​- Sasha / Muskoka A-frame
THIS IS HOW ALL AIRBNBs SHOULD BE! This is a charming and truly delightful escape. Everything looks as it is presented in the pictures and described. If you are looking for a place to escape to and enjoy nature's beauty and quietness, this would be the place. David is excellent with communication. Incredibly detailed and thoughtful. No detail overlooked.
