Our family had a wonderful time. The fire pit at night was a big hit.

October at the cottage

Beautiful property. The kitchens (main cottage and loft) had all the essentials needed. The beds were super comfortable and everything was so clean and tidy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

This property was absolutely perfect for our family reunion, which included three littles and a range of other ages up to 71. There is *so much* to do without even leaving the property - and on the frequent clear, calm days we had during our July stay, the water was stunningly clear and refreshing to swim in. We also enjoyed several local excursions. The host is extremely responsive with communication, and everything was lovingly and thoughtfully set up and well stocked.Two quick notes to be aware of if anyone has knee or hip issues - the floors in the cabin are a bit uneven, and there are no bedrooms on the ground floor in either house. We are keeping this on a short list of places to return to as we plan future reunions! Thank you for a wonderful 10 days!

Fully stocked, family-friendly cottage with beautiful lake access

AMAZING fully stocked, family-friendly cottage. This cottage had everything for our large family, for all ages. Some of our favourite things were the fully stocked kitchens, private access to the beautiful water, the outdoor gear (paddle boards, kayak, water shoes), two swing sets, fire pit, hot tub, spacious outdoor space, and high-speed WiFi. There was privacy at the cottage and the town was a short drive away (we loved Meaford!). If you have little ones, this cottage had everything for them (pack and play, high chair, plates/cutlery, toys). We have rented many cottages and this has been our favourite. Highly recommend and would definitely book again.
