Perfect cabin paradise

We stayed over thanksgiving weekend as a family. 6 adults 2 kids and 1 Bernese mountain dog. The cabin was perfect in every way. Spacious comfortable and decor was totally cabin chic! I adored every inch of it. The weather wasn’t great but the girls enjoyed the playground and we managed to fit in a fire outside. The rest of the time we enjoyed the wood stove inside and darts and other games. The kitchen was so well stocked I wanted to move in. We have other family claw by and this made a perfect base for us (coming from PEI and Toronto) All the little touches - the snack basket of treats and yummy wine - the scented soap - the lovely thick towels - rounded out a wonderful weekend. We will be back. Thanks so much.

LABOUR DAY WEEKEND 2023

We can't thank Janet, Kevin, Scott, Andrew, and Georgia enough for their hospitality. They provided all essentials, and all the little details made us feel right at home. My family enjoyed the beautiful trails with the atvs, dirt bikes, and the dogs loved the nature walks through the trails. Maple Valley Cabin was a beautiful place for my family to connect and make memories that will last forever. ❤️ The Martins Family!

Wonderful and cozy cabin

We stayed at Janet and Kevin's cabin over the civic day long weekend. It was a wonderful experience and our family made a ton of memories during this trip. Janet and Kevin welcomed us with a welcome basket and a lovely handwritten note. I loved the personal touches. This was a first cabin experience for our family and we felt right at home. The cabin is thoughtfully and beautifully decorated and is very very clean. The kitchen is stocked with everything you can possibly need. My 3 year old loved the sandbox and treehouse. We ate most of our meals in there :) Janet was very responsive to questions during our stay. There is a cabinet stocked with games and toys. We loved the campfire every night on the lovely red muskoka chairs. I felt like I was living inside a gingerbread house. Can't wait to be back!

Fantastic kid friendly get away

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful property for our summer vacation. The 5 of us were very comfortable. The home was clean and had all the features we needed. The hosts were easy to get a hold of and really helped us plan our activities with great knowledge of the area. The cabin comes with countless games and spaces to use both indoors and out. And the outdoor play house with a slide and sand box under are in great condition and safe for age appropriate children. This kept our 3 fully entertained while we unpacked or prepared meals. Though we did several day time outings we could easily have been fully entertained without leaving the property. We had a wonderful time and would recommend this location to any family looking for a relaxing getaway.

Fantastic 5-Star Family Getaway

We were looking to get out of the city for Family Day weekend, and we were hoping for a rustic winter getaway in the woods. When I booked this cabin, I was thinking we would be treated to a rustic retreat . I was drawn in by the description of the trails and the snowshoes, and the proximity to some local winter attractions like Arrowhead Provincial Park's skating trail. I got what I expected, but also so much more. This cabin is brimming with so many creature comforts and thoughtful extras, the hosts go above and beyond. When we arrived, there was a welcome basket with a sweet note and some goodies for our kids. Dog bowls had been put out for our pooch, and there were lovely soaps and toiletries in the bathroom. Everything was spotless and cozy, and the cabin had everything (from extra blankets to a fully stocked kitchen) you could ask for. We were delighted by the cabin and spent some time exploring the gorgeous local trails. It was also a short (1hr 15 min) drive to a local ski hill, Antoine Mountain, which was really fun and not too busy! Getting out there was great, but so was relaxing under a starry sky with the snow falling all around and a fire roaring in the fireplace. We played board games (crokinole!), we watched some shows, and we enjoyed winter to the max thanks to these amazing hosts. Thank you again for making our Family Day such a memorable adventure! We can't wait to visit again.

Maple Valley Cabin - Amazing Cabin In A Beautiful Setting

They say a picture is worth a thousand words and the pictures of Maple Valley Cabin are a true testament to the beauty of the cabin and surrounding property, however the ambiance that encompassed us while staying at this cabin was magical/true peace and tranquility!! Maybe these feeling were a reflection of the attention to detail that the hosts made, first class all the way!! If you had forgotten any of the basic necessities for cooking (there was butter in the fridge) or that lovely hot shower fear/stress not they had it covered. Tim’s coffee YIPPEE!! Ok even our dog was feeling special with a large dog bed beside the wood stove, which he thoroughly enjoyed after long adventures through the beautiful, wooded trails. We were lucky to have a couple of clear nights which allowed for amazing star gazing!! WE WILL BE BACK!! : )

Wonderful!

We stayed at Maple Valley Cabin for 6 days in mid-August with our family of four and dog. The cabin, property and hosts were excellent. The interior has the slightly rustic feel of a log cabin in the woods but impeccably decorated, maintained and equipped like a high end resort. The property is very private and quiet with lots of green space for dogs to run and play! Would be great for young kids too.

Perfect Cabin in the woods

Janet and Kevin have thought of everything you may need and placed it perfectly in this log home. From the furry throws to the pillowy dog bed …. There is everything you need and more. All the beds are super cozy and the firewood is plentiful. Having personal trails through the woods to walk with the dogs was amazing. Love to hear back in the fall or winter to enjoy all the seasons. Honestly the best cottage stay we ever had.

Stunning and serene

Wonderful property and hosts! We enjoyed a short, but lovely stay at Maple Valley Cabin. It is well appointed and offers everything guests need to enjoy their retreat. The property is picturesque and clean. Janet et al. were responsive and welcoming - and ensured we had everything we needed for creature comforts. The rooms are comfortable, the living room is spacious, and the kitchen is properly equipped. We were not concerned with the lodging at any time. Even our pet had what he needed to be his jolly self. I would go back again and again. Thank you for the memories - and we hope to come back soon :)

Relaxing summer getaway!

We were beyond impressed with this vacation cabin. Not only is the home filled with every convenience, beautiful trails and scenery, and a relaxing location, but the attention to details was amazing. This was our toddlers first vacation so we wanted something easy and relaxing. This was definitely the place. The fire pit was fully stocked, there are indoor and outdoor activities and games, play area for the little one, toiletries for the adults and the toddler were offered, even a stocked condiment and spice cupboard. The host was perfect in how she explained what there was to do in the area and also being fully available if we had issues or questions. This is a vacation home that is perfect in every way. 100% would recommend this for anyone.

Great time in the woods, again!

This was our second stay at Maple Valley Cabin. Great place, clean, well-stocked, and Janet and Kevin are wonderful and supportive hosts!! Im sure if they were able to prevent the mosquitoes and black/deer flies they would, but with early summer in the woods, the bugs are part of the package! Another wonderful stay, thanks again!!

Absolutely stunning inside and out, with so much to do and see it’s a wonderful place to get some R&R and enjoy the great outdoors. Our family dog had the time of his life running the trails too, we have never seen him so tired at the end of each day lol he is already missing his time at the cabin ☺️ Thank you Janet and Kevin for a fabulous vacation!

Awesome Winter Retreat

The Cabin was a perfect fit for us all. Secluded on 100 acres gave us the privacy but yet the most enjoyable winter weekend getaway! The many trails in the surrounding woods kept us active and busy. We have rented from VRBO many times & must say it was one of the best equipped rental. Janet and Kevin have thought of everything! Games, fire pit, fireplace, claw foot tub, fully stocked kitchen, snowshoes… the list goes on. Thank you Janet & Kevin, We will be back!

Such a beautiful, peaceful place. The decor pulled at our Canadian heartstrings. The trails are great. Both with and without snowshoes. Our Hosts were topnotch. So thoughtful and accommodating. The kitchen is a treat for chef in all of us. Well equipped and logical. My young dog got to experience deep snow for the first time and provided many laughs. We will most definitely be returning.

Immaculately clean and well stocked with towels, paper products, a plethora of dishes and pots and pans, etc. The stainless appliances are high end and excellent quality. The grounds are beautiful with walking trails out back. They have supplied some entertainment (i.e. snowshoes, outdoor games for the summer, television and even wifi).
