Hot tub was a health risk, garbage all over the property outside, god awful looking fence blocking the VERY busy road NOT a place for dogs to run around, also no firewood when they said there is a bag and smelled very gross inside as well. NEVER AGAIN ANY VRBO after this. It was my 40th birthday and it was RUINED all I wanted was a hot tub!!!

About the host
Hosted by avi
I am a passionate nature enthusiast and homesteader from the Greater Toronto Area. My love for the outdoors led me to the stunning Bancroft and Haliburton regions, where I find joy in developing unique cottage getaways. I believe in creating spaces that not only provide a comfortable retreat but also allow guests to connect with the beauty of the surrounding wilderness.
My goal is to share a piece of my passion with you, offering a stay that feels both authentic and rejuvenating. I've poured my heart into crafting this cottage, ensuring every detail contributes to a memorable and restorative experience.

Why they chose this property
This area is a year-round paradise! I fell in love with the Haliburton/Bancroft region because of its vibrant community and endless opportunities for adventure. From hiking and fishing in the summer to snowmobiling and ice fishing in the winter, there's always something to do. The local towns are charming, with great shops, restaurants, and a true sense of community that makes this more than just a place to visit—it's a place to experience.
What makes this property unique
Our property is a true slice of history and a nature lover's dream, a combination you won't find anywhere else.
Imagine a charming, 115-year-old cottage nestled in a serene landscape. The creek flowing through the property gives it a truly magical feel—you'll hear the gentle sounds of nature from the moment you arrive.
On the east end of the property, you'll discover a hidden gem: a small, beautiful waterfall. We've placed a bench there so you can sit and soak in the view, letting the sounds of the water melt your stress away. It's my favorite spot, and I know it will be yours, too.
