Family getaway

We had amazing family getaway. The accommodations were amazing plenty of space and things to do. we visited in the winter and enjoyed watching a family movie next to a cosy fire. There was tons of snow and there were beautiful views of the snow covered lake. We look forward to returning in the summer and enjoying the lake.

This is an amazing place.

This is an amazing place. We spent 10 days during our semi annual family gathering. We enjoyed the fire pit and the swimming and paddle boards. The bedrooms are all great including the bunk beds. I haven’t slept in as bunk bed since I was a kid but these are not IKEA! I would recommend this location as long as you can handle the long walk down the stairs to the to the beach. Our age group was 71 to 86 and we were good with it. Beautiful landscaping

Amazing find

Our group had a blast at Lisa’s cottage. The waterfront is beautiful and so is the house. We had lots of space and activities to keep us entertained while it rained. There was something for everyone. When the sun came out we were able to take advantage of the beautiful weather and enjoy the lake. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We hope to be back in future.

Wonderful stay!

We had a group of friends up here to celebrate our upcoming wedding and it was an AMAZING place! We had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable and the rooms easily accommodated our group of 11. The place was clean, exactly as shown in the photos, and the dock/waterfront was SO relaxing. We spent an evening by the firepit and it was definitely a highlight of the stay. Having a dryer was much appreciated when it rained one day while we were out golfing. Only things I'd advise future renters on; - don't forget to read the document the owners send with all the info, I missed it and ended up asking them a number of questions that were already answered - plan for garbage removal! You must take all your trash & recycling with you at the end of your stay and we were almost out of room in our car. If we had planned, we would've taken smaller bags with us on days we went into town.

Our 2023 Trip to Muskoka

Overall it is a very nice cottage, with good location and road access. Our family of 9 adults and two children under 10 enjoyed our stay. We offer the following additional comments pro and con for your consideration. Pro: • Easy parking for four vehicles • Nice view from the house and balcony, • Beautiful landscaping, • Dock large and very stable, • Good fishing, • Fire pit was well located and very useful, • Reliable wifi, • Lots of tvs, • Comfortable furniture, • Nice bedding, • Ping pong table was great fun for the kids (and adults), • Paddle boards were very enjoyable; • Beautiful view of the stars on clear nights, Con: • Dryer broke down on the Saturday a few days after we arrived. The repairman did not arrive by Wednesday, the day we left, • Kitchen & dining area are rather cramped if all 6 bedrooms occupied, • The dock is relatively far & pathway quite sloped away from the house, making it difficult to access for older people; • There is some erosion around the path to the lake about half-way down with water seeping through, making it necessary to walk on the stones to the side of the path which can be unstable, • Garbage dump is really far (~30 minutes drive). • No adult life jackets, • Limited thermostat control and cold basement rooms, • Some things seemed to be in disrepair (ie several broken Muskoka chairs at fire pit, dehumidifier in basement was never running, the dryer as noted, canoe paddles)

This is THE place

Went with a group of girls for a bachelorette weekend. Nothing exciting just a low key girls tripe away. I am not particularly outdoorsy and a bit of a princess. This place totally exceeded my expectations. Get the cottage experience without roughing it! All the girls were comfortable and had a blast. I will definitely be back with family!

How can this be rated "wonderful"?

Truly scratching my head after seeing everyone's recent reviews. Where should we start... 1) ANTS, lots of ANTS! Once you enter the property they start greeting you in the kitchen, big ones coming from around the fridge. Then you see them on the bench next to you when you're eating at the dining table. Then you see more of them in the floor below on the ottoman. Then you see them around the toilet and shower. We know it's close to nature and we should expect some bugs, but the ants infestation indoors is really over the top. 2) Once you enter the property, you get a strong smell of the last occupant's brunch (and possibly dinner?) and the smell lingers so it didn't give us a good vibe from the get-go. 3) Utensils in the kitchen cabinet, particularly the plastic bowls and frying pan, has ketchup-like stains and again you can see and smell the last occupants' meal(s). We ended up tossing our food that was cooked on the pan because of this. Cleanliness (and hygiene) is an issue and you can see black stains in sink and shower as well. 4) No blankets and no bed sheets. There's a single sentence (which we admittedly missed) about no linen in the rental document, and we were blanket-less for the first night till other family members brought blankets the day after. 5) Insufficient hot water supply. We had couple families with kids, and after one kid having a bath and another adult showering, there was no more hot water left and every other person had to wait for almost an hour for water to be heated in between. 6) Air circulation is an issue at the main floor (which may explain issue #2 above): during daytime the air is very humid and stuffy because it faces the sun, then at night the air is very dry indoors, which makes it hard to relax and sleep. 7) Stingy on toilet paper and paper towels. There are only 2 rolls on site. Unforeseen in other cottage stays. Rental document mentions bringing your own. Just wanna remind others to really remember to bring your own here. The outdoor set up was nice, view was great and canoe was fun though.

A Dream Vacation House

We started with an unexpected surprise when we checked in - Google map led us to another location using the same address. That other house was a complete opposite in terms of appearance and quality and that scared us to death. Thankfully, Lisa picked up her phone immediately when we called her and directed us to the correct location. The property is gorgeous and looks exactly the same it is in the photos. The scenery of the lake is breathtaking. We had a blast at the property. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed. There are 3 full bathrooms and 3TVs in the property, which is perfect for our group of 3 families. The kids love the loft. They enjoyed movies and played video games together there. It's like the kids' own private space. We spent a lot of time playing table tennis during which we shared lots of laughs and funny moments. We also played Connect 4, Scrabble, Meme and Card Against Humanity which were available in the property. The only downside is that the road led to the property has some steep slopes. So, winter renters have to make sure that their cars have winter tires. After all, the location, the layout and scenery of Lisa's property are all perfect. It's everyone's dream vacation house! We will definitely re-revisit this property if we have the luck to be able to book it again!

Beautiful location. Great sleeping for families, not so great for 11 adults. Very nice property. Lots of stairs to get down to the lake. Lots of chairs by the dock and great fire pit area. Enjoyed that area and had a great time.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Knighton

Host profile image
We purchased this cottage after searching for two years and fell in love with the property. We decided to renovate a few things on the interior, but we focused mainly on making the exterior space more enjoyable for our family and guests. We're excited to share our home away from home with families that will enjoy the space and take care of it as their own. Our neighbours are incredible! We're very easy going and accommodating.

Why they chose this property

We've always loved Muskoka and jumped at the opportunity to be on a smaller, family friendly body of water in 3 Mile lake. Not to mention the fishing is incredible for large walleye, smallmouth and largemouth bass.

What makes this property unique

Longhorn Lodge is off the beaten path but also close to Bracebridge and Port Carling. It's located in Green Bay on Three Mile lake with fantastic fishing and swimming right of the dock! The lake is a smaller body of water compared to the Big Three, but still big enough for fishing, water sports, tubing and just ripping around on Jet Skis/Boats - and perfect for paddle boarding, kayaking and canoeing.
