About the host
Hosted by Jessica Page
Our family currently lives in Oakville but love to escape to our cottage in Muskoka for a restful break and to enjoy our coffee on the dock, swimming in the lake and walks through nature. We will be available at all times before and during your stay to answer any questions you may have. We are happy to provide recommendations for things to do in the area!
