Beautiful setting on Lake Muskoka.
We loved our stay on Lake Muskoka even though it rained for two of the three days. The house had a wonderful view of the lake, it was in a quiet location and the property had all the amenities that you needed for a comfortable stay except for an iron and hairdryer. Highly recommend to other travellers.

Muskoka property
Great place to stay. Right on the lake. Large deck to sit outside on. Full kitchen and dining room to use. Plenty of parking. Very clean and comfortable. Not too far from Gravenhurst, good directions on how to get there. We really enjoyed our stay there. Also air conditioned, and they had the air on when we arrived.

Well located property with wonderful views over Lake Muskoka from within the cottage or whilst sitting on its ample deck. Comfortable and well equipped. The canoe available for use by guests provided opportunities to explore the lake and you can swim from the cottages own dock. A wonderful and relaxing time enjoyed by all 4 of us.

The cottage is spotless and offers amazing views. Very cozy interior!
We had an amazing weekend at thins cottage. Communication throughout was fast and seamless. The cottage was great, very comfortable and clean. The living room and master bedroom offer amazing views. The outdoor deck and way down to the water show extensive wear and tear and will require some work but this did not have any impact on us as we didn’t have any children with us. We will come again.

Waterfront getaway within arms reach to the city
Overall, we had a great time at this little family getaway. We were fortunate that the weather cooperated and that the dock was completed for the season!! Prior to the trip, Catherine emailed detailed instructions and a renters agreement that was very helpful! During our visit, we were able to connect with her promptly with any questions or concerns. This cottage was very well furnished - fully equipped kitchen with all the utensils needed (even for the BBQ), wash/dryer, various life jackets available, lots of linens and towels, and extra pillows and comforters. Catherine had a binder on the coffee table with very clear instructions for wifi, using the TV/remote controls, garbage and recycling rules, the BBQ, firepit and overall "Do's" and "Don'ts". The location was great - just a 7-10 minute drive to local stores and shops! Sawmill Brewery was just 12 minutes away! Since this is an older cottage, there are a few maintenance things that I'm sure will be fixed overtime (outdoor patio lights, lights down the patio stairs and bathroom faucets). Although this cottage does not allow animals, unbeknownst to Catherine, someone must have snuck one in because there was animal fur throughout the cottage and on our bedsheets. Again, we let Catherine know and she was very apologetic. My suggestion would be a more thorough job by the cleaning company. Another piece of feedback we shared was for new pillows and extra blankets. The pillows had sweat stains, were musty and weren't the comfiest (very flat). Since the extra blankets were stored in a wood chest, they were also quite musty (we ended up washing them before use). I would suggest storing them in a large plastic tote bin. This was a very nice spot, just had a very little area areas that needed improvement :)

Little bit of heaven
My husband and I stayed at this property for three days and two nights. There are no words to describe the view. It is spectacular. The cottage is super clean and has everything you need. I could have stayed a month. My host, Catherine, was always available and responded quickly to any texts. Definitely a 5/5 experience and just the recharge we needed.

Central Muskoka location and beautiful property
Perfect for our family of 6 long weekend vacation. Close to Huntsville, Parry Sound, and Bracebridge. ATV trails within driving distance. Colours this time of year were very pretty. Parking is shared with another property and not clearly laid out as to where to park so clarify before you go. Queen bed was super comfy but bring a topper for each of the double beds…really hard.

Perfect in Every Way
We thoroughly enjoyed our week long vacation in Muskoka. Catherine's cottage is super clean and well appointed with everything you could possibly need. We enjoyed relaxing on the dock, swimming in the clear water and canoeing around the nearby islands. Definitely a little bit of heaven. We would highly recommend this property.

Amazing and beautiful place
Our family was extremely satisfied with our stay at this beautiful property. Catherine was a amazing host. The cottage was equipped with everything you can think you will need. I was so impressed. We stayed in many cottages before , here and other countries, ... But never in one like this. One think that always got our family a bit unhappy, was the lack of privacy from the owners of the others vacation rentals..... But this did not happened with this vacation, Catherine gave was the space to be free to enjoy her cottage. Thank you again for the amazing time Cecilia and Family

Beautiful rainy days
We did not expect weather would be that cold at the beginning of September, +12. And it was also rainy but due to the hospitality of the cottage we managed to enjoy every minute of our staying. It was warm and cosy inside and we cooked food on bbq and had fire in the fireplace after swimming and canoeing. It was even more amazing family reunion than we could expect. Loved it a lot and returned back home with warm sweet memories of the cottage life. Thank you, Catherine, for your prompt responses.

Relaxing Muskoka Getaway
Beautiful property, clean with amazing views from the deck. The best part of the cottage is the large window that provides indoor views to the living room and kitchen. The dock was large and stable, great for lounging and swimming. The canoe provided was an added bonus. Although the walk down to the water is vertical, sturdy stairs and even night lighting is provided making it very easy. The fire pit is not a traditional one, a small enclosed fire pit that is located at the end of the stairs and thus doesn’t accommodate many people to sit around it. The interior of the cottage is very clean and comfortable. Very much enjoyed that bed linens and towels were provided. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you possibly need for your stay. We made a variety of meals and never had issues with lack of equipment. The location of the cottage is superb, with only a ten-minute drive to Gravenhurst and a short drive to Bala for other activities such as hiking and Johnston’s Cranberry Marsh. The host was very responsive and accommodating. We had a wonderful relaxing vacation!
