Relax on the Shores of Charming Lac McArthur

Hillside Getaway – Signature Collection
Part of the Signature Collection at Lakeside Getaways, Hillside Getaway overlooks the sparkling waters of Lac McArthur. Hillside is perched among mature sugar maples. Known as our most affordable Signature Collection option for families on a budget, it delivers all the essentials for a memorable cottage vacation without compromising comfort or the features that matter most.
This three-bedroom, four-season retreat features a wrap-around balcony with a hot tub perched high above Lac McArthur. Enjoy the lower deck by the lake which is perfect for morning coffee, afternoon lounging, and evening stargazing. The private dock is the perfect launch point for fishing, paddle boarding, or exploring the lake with a kayak. Indoors, the single-level layout offers a bright, open living space, a fully equipped kitchen, and comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to six guests.
Hillside Getaway is a return to the heart of cottage living—simple relaxation, outdoor fun, and a slower pace. Whether it’s a family holiday or a quick escape from the city, this property blends value, charm, and a true lakeside experience.

No complaints. The place was very clean and comfortable. Only thing is there was no paddle boat as shown in the pictures.

Our apologies. We recently had to "retire" the pedal boat. We have updated our amenities list and photos to include that change

We absolutely loved our stay at Hillside Getaway. The cottage is even more wonderful than we hoped for—it’s so beautifully maintained and impressively stocked with everything we could possibly need. From the cozy linens to the well-equipped kitchen and all the little thoughtful touches, you’ve truly thought of everything! It feels like a home away from home, and it’s clear how much care and attention you put into every detail.We’re incredibly grateful for your hospitality and commitment to creating a five-star experience. The views and hot tub were the highlights! We truly made such special memories here, and we can’t wait to be back! Thank you for sharing this lovely getaway with us.

Gorgeous setting, especially in the midst of fall colours! Immaculate, comfortable cottage (aside from dirty dishes, left from previous guests, found in the cupboard)! Good communication, overall, but host did not acknowledge/answer questions asked mid-stay. Very well-stocked kitchen, minus a microwave. Bathroom has no electrical outlet. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would definitely return!

Beautiful winter getaway!

We stayed for 2 nights at Hillside in Feb 2025. This accommodation was the perfect location for a picturesque and relaxing winter getaway. We were able to access the property with ease and found the paths and deck very well cleaned for the winter weather. The inside of the cottage was beautifully decorated with quaint and classic charm. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace each night and enjoyed the view from the deck. It was the perfect place to unplug from the norm and enjoy a thoughtful experience. The hot tub also provided a nice feature to enhance relaxation and enjoy being outdoors in the winter. Overall the accommodations are very cozy, clean and well maintained. We cooked lovely meals in the full kitchen each evening and enjoyed coffee with a view each morning. I highly recommend this property for couples and families alike. I cannot wait to return in the summer months to enjoy the lake experience. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
