We had a wonderful week on beautiful Loon Bay! It is a perfect quiet spot for kayaking and spotting wildlife and beautiful sunrises. The giant dock and the private spaces in the two buildings were amazing.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful and cozy cottage. It had everything our family needed for a perfect weekend getaway. The kids especially loved playing on the sandy beach, while we enjoyed the peaceful, calm mornings watching the loons on the lake. The cottage was very clean, well-equipped, and communication with the host was excellent. A truly relaxing and memorable stay. We highly recommend!

Terrific location and cabin

The property is on a nice beach on the beautiful, island-studded western shore of Parry Sound. The cabin is very comfortable with a modern kitchen, porch with nice furniture, and a comfortable beds. Really great way to experience one of the prettiest places on Earth!

Great Spot !

Overall we had a great experience! The cottage had all the basics covered for our stay. The beach was great for the kids and the dock/ raft was great for swimming! If you are a boating enthusiast this cottage is perfect! The dock can accommodate a large boat (or 2) We brought our boat were able to explore each day! The host was easy to communicate with and provided everything we needed to know. The neighbours were friendly and kept to themselves.

Peaceful piece of property on the water

First off you will need a boat to access this cottage. We used a water taxi service from a local marina. That in itself was a nice added bonus to experience. The place is clean and well maintained. The waterfront is exceptional with a large dock to enjoy. Swimming was daily and there is a sandy beach area for the kids to use. The screened in porch was great to look out over the water and a large bar height table was great for playing cards and eating your meals. This is a property that the whole family agreed that we have to book again next year.
