Our family recently stayed at the cottage and enjoyed the beautiful views and cozy, functional spaces. The amenities, including a dishwasher and air conditioning, were also a great plus.However, we did have a few safety concerns during our stay. The swimming area was very weedy and rocky, making it difficult for our two young children (ages 6 and 7) to use. Additionally, we found a significant amount of broken glass near the front of the cottage, which was a worry for the kids. There was also a broken window on the door that was taped up and could be a potential hazard.Overall, we had a good time, but hope these issues can be addressed to make the cottage a safer and more enjoyable place for families with young children.

Relaxing vacation!

We had a great time at this cottage. We were a group of all adults and had a wonderful time cooking and enjoying shared meals on the deck, screened sunroom, and large indoor dining table. Hosts were quick to respond to any questions and pleasant to work with.

Kawartha Lakes cottage

Lovely cottage for our family of 5 plus 2 pets. The layout of the cottage is terrific, 4 bedrooms, nice big kitchen. Sunroom, mudroom, deck and BBQ - 3 entry/exit points, was great for the pets and us. Vicky (owner) was a pleasure to work with. Cottage was well equipped with everything you could want and more! There are 75 + steps down to the water. Lovely sitting area by the water. Loved our stay and would love to return again! Thank you!

Maintenance needs help

When we arrived, we immediately noticed that the cleaning was not up to par. We recleaned the bathroom, couches, and glassware from the cupboard, and removed most of salad from the dishwasher filter. Bathroom towel bar kept falling off. Refrigerator door shelves held together with duct tape. Main door key broke. Bed to the left of bathroom needs a new mattress. Dangerous issue with the dock as the floor panels of the dock had slid or been placed such that there was a 4-5” gap in the middle. At one point my wife slipped in it and crashed down up to her knee which was firmly jammed between the planks and scraped. It was only in trying to pry her loose that we discovered that the panels would move at all. She was in such shock and pain that once we had extracted her, she actually passed out and we had to carry her back. She is still nursing some serious bruising and swelling in her lower leg. Canoe had a 6” crack and was taking on water. I found a roll of duct tape and did a temporary repair. Muskoka chairs in VRBO photos were all broken and in a pile near the dock. Had to dig around in the basement to find some other folding camp chairs. We enjoyed our week overall and the lake was lovely. Thankfully we had brought our own inner-tube floaties since most of the floaties in the dock shed were not usable. It’s unfortunate that the cleaning, maintenance and safety issues left a bad taste.

Respectful Host, Nice Lake View, Equipped cottage

We enjoyed celebrating Thanksgiving at this property, The house is quite old but the condition is very good, you can find all your needs while you stay, The host is super kind and responsive to any question you might have, and the front yard is very secure for the kids to play, The house is not at the lake level but I don't really mind going down the stairs to reach the water. I highly recommend this place.

Extra Miles...

Our experience with Vicky in her cottage was very good. Vicky is a kind, simple, and very willing and open lady to help her guests enjoy what she offers. She is the one who is ready to walk extra miles so that everything goes well for the guest. It was a pleasant surprise to see the beautiful view from the cottage to the lake, and the entire area surrounding it.` We really enjoyed our visit, and we will indeed repeat it soon.

Family friendly waterfront cottage

The cottage was perfect for my family. We spent most of our time on the dock, swimming, fishing and using the paddle boat. Lake is shallow near the dock and then gets deep. It was good for my younger children to enjoy. The fire pit down by the lake was great, we used it each night. The cottage was Ean, beds were comfortable and kitchen was well stocked.

Great Time

First off I would like to say that the owner of this cottage was so lovely to deal with. Very helpful and pleasant to talk to. The pictures on site don’t do this cottage justice. It was a perfect getaway for adults and children. We were there from Tuesday to Friday and we will definitely go back. The cottage is far from a cottage, the house was great. Had everything that we needed. The house had no issues, 3 bdrms with queen and double beds. A large family room that looked out to the lake. Big kitchen with all the amenities. Nice large yard in the front with a fire pit and front deck and the back had another long deck with a bbq and entertaining section with a table, chairs and umbrella. There were stairs that looked daunting at first but it was great exercise and not that bad after you used them a few times. There is a paddle boat, and canoe and a nice dock where you can fish. There are rocks so you will need water shoes as the rocks are quiet sharp and will cut you feet. Everyone who was there really enjoyed themselves. Cottage had life jackets and also a fire pit down by the water. Beautiful sunsets and best place to look at the stars. I will definitely be going back! You won’t be disappointed when you go to this cottage.

Very Good Week

Very good place to stay. Some might be weary of the stairs down to the beach, but this wasn't a concern for us. Lots of room in the cottage and the owners are very pleasant.

A fantastic experience! A lovely cottage, with plenty of space, and all the amenities (AC! Satellite Tv! Puzzles! Boats!). Vicky was easy to get a hold of whenever we had any questions or needed advice on where to purchase groceries or anything else we needed. Can’t wait to return next year!

Lovely Cottage

I had a lovely time at this cottage. I was in the off season (Nov) where it was nice and quite. Lovely sunsets and scenery. Sitting in the sunroom as a little brisk that time of year, but it was a great place to sit and read under a blanket. It is very much a cottage - so don't go and expect a pristine-luxury-glam experience. Expect a nice cottage with a lovely host.
