Perfect Fall Getaway
We spent three nights in this charming, rustic cottage and loved every minute of it! We felt right at home as the cottage had all the amenities that we needed for a peaceful and relaxing fall mini vacation. A large waterfront property with a stunning view of the river. Many hours were spent dockside enjoying the fresh air and the scenery. Can’t wait to visit again!

Perfect cottage getaway
Everything was wonderful from start to finish! Check-in was easy. Had a nice classic cottage feel, in a lovely location, with a beautiful view over the river. Although there are neighboring cottages, was quiet and private. Loved relaxing in the hot tub overlooking the river, and BBQ dinners on the deck. No complaints!

Beautiful spot
This is a wonderful cottage in a beautiful spot on Burnt River. We enjoyed kayaking and canoeing, campfires, and the many great games that are available. Abundant water was supplied, as well as a full propane tank for the BBQ. Communication was always easy and prompt. Highly recommended.

An amazing place
My family and I just stayed at this wonderful place and had an amazing time. It is very clean and well maintained. The hosts, Neil and Shanna were excellent. They responded so quickly and were very helpful whenever I had a question. There is so much you can do here. If you want you can swim, fish, paddle on the river or maybe have a fire and some smores. At the end of the day soak in the hot tub, which was so good and maybe watch one of the many movies available. We had an amazing time and hope to go back next summer. Thank you Neil and Shanna.

This property is beautiful, quiet and well maintained by the host. It had everything you need to enjoy a getaway. Located close to town and on the water, which the hot tub and fire pit overlook. There are also kayaks and a canoe to use, for some leisurely fun! Highly recommended, as the host was so helpful and friendly the entire time. We will be back!

Lovely River Front Stay
My wife and I booked this Cozy Rusty Cottage as our Christmas gifts to each other and had a lovely stay despite the rainy and warm weather. The hosts were very clear with communication and gave lots of instructions and rules regarding the visit. We enjoyed the hot tub, the view of the river in the backyard and the fireplace inside the cabin. It was very private, peaceful and romantic. We are interested in renting this cabin in the summer to take advantage of the water sports available!

Lovely Visit
The cottage and property are exactly as described; tranquil, fun and beautiful. We really enjoyed being on a river, opposed to a lake for a change. All of the water amenities provided; canoe, kayaks and paddle boat is amazing. The hosts provide easy to follow instructions regarding every aspect of the cottage. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it.

Muskoka vibes in Kawarthas
The road in to the cottage was well marked and easy to navigate. We had clear instructions upon check in and check out. The cottage was tidy, clean, well organized and the kitchen was well stocked with condiments/necessities. The kids loved the variety of board games, fire pit for hanging out around/roasting marshmallows and water toys available. We appreciated the number of charging stations and consistency of internet. There are 3 bedrooms, not 4 and we’re confused by the listing. The depth of the river was great - we enjoyed the ease at which we could swim and dive. The wrap around deck, outside eating area and hot tub were an absolute hit!
