We had a winter Holiday, so were out skiing alot, home late, but really enjoyed our mornings in the little kitchen nook, fully engulfed in sunshine ! Watching all the ice fishers and snowmobilers on the lake. Loved our stay. Great neighbours too !
The Farm House Cottage was just perfect for our Christmas vacation. The host is outstanding and went the extra mile in every way. Magical decorations in a very well appointed cottage. We absolutely loved it and highly recommend booking this fabulous cottage. Very close to Huntsville, we had fun going to Santa’s Village and Back of Beyond Equine Centre for an iconic sleigh ride in the woods! The cottage is very cosy with fabulous lake views, a great property! Will happily rent again!
Have stayed here previously and once again thoroughly enjoyed it! The cottage has pretty much everything you would want or need for your stay. We’ve already planned our next visit and can’t wait!
Cottage was very well equipped and as described. Lots of space and very comfortable. The host, Indy, was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend. Great location on a beautiful lake.
Cottage was clean and very spacious for 6 of us and dog. Communication and help when needed from Indy was second to none - would definitely recommend to anyone and will definitely go back!
This is our 2nd time staying at this property and it is definitely one of our top go-to spots in the area! The property manager, Indy, is so professional and pleasant to communicate with, and the property itself is excellent. Excited for our next stay.
This was our 4th time staying here and it was a wonderful experience for our family! We have nothing but great things to say about the property, amenities, location, etc. The host, Indy, is always so wonderful and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend, we can’t wait to come back!
This is a very comfortable and nicely designed house in a beautiful location- right on the lake. Great area to walk around and close to Hidden Valley and Huntsville and Algonquin. We would recommend the house and hope to return.
The house deck was great with 2 entrances and fantastic seating outside with great views of the water for 8+ adults.
Kitchen was well stocked with all the basics (lots of plates bowls, cups, glasses, knives, utensils and plenty of cooking acessories (parchment, tin foil, dishwasher soap, etc) Beds were comfy. Property is lovely.
Caveates: VERY close the road for dogs, entrance patio bricks sunken and a bit of a tripping hazard
We had a great week at the Farmhouse cottage. It was very clean and organized when we arrived. The kitchen is very well equipped and the cutlery and implements are high quality. All the advertised items worked well and there was lots of space for us. The only issue I noted is it is located very close to Portage Road and there is a fair amount of traffic noise during the day (it does quiet down at night).
Thanks for a great stay!

The property manager, Indy, was extremely helpful in making check in and check out very easy and by quickly responding to any and all questions. The property itself is a beautifully restored old farmhouse that is situated directly on Lake of Bays. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this property. The only caveat I might offer would be if you are travelling with elderly or handicapped family members. Being an old farmhouse, the stairs are pretty steep and narrow and could be quite difficult for them to navigate.
Cottage was lovely, beautiful dock for hanging as a group. Really enjoyed our time. Lots of space inside and out.
The cottage is very close to a busy road, which was a bit unexpected and not ideal as we had young children and pets
Host is amazing . Place is incredible . From the home to to the fire pit to the lakefront with all the toys. Could not have been better. Just wow. We will be back!!
The farmhouse cottage was overall a great experience. The cottage itself was very clean, and the bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were really comfortable. The kitchen was fully stocked and clean. The cottage is close to both Dwight (where there is a Grocery Store as well as Ericka’s Bakery, great coffee, baked yummies and other goodies) and Huntsville. We really enjoyed the outdoor spaces, including the fire pit, the dock (with an array of watercrafts, an addition of a water lily for kids would be great) and the outdoor seating areas from which you can see both the vista of the lake and pretty property. We had six adults, two kids and one dog with us and it was very comfortable. Like other reviews have mentioned, the cottage is situated close to a two-lane District Road and while it was not an issue for us, should be kept in consideration, depending on your circumstances. Thank you Indy for a wonderful week up North!
