Response from VrboOwner on 4 Aug, 2025
Thank you Jay, we loved hosting you and your family.
About the host
Hosted by Jon Sarafinchin
We love hosting other families and sharing the same joy we get out of Muskoka. Renting has made it possible to keep upgrading the cottage every year while still enjoying it with our daughter when it’s available.
Why they chose this property
I grew up summering on lake muskoka on the island across from Wilson (Eileen Gowen Island). South muskoka has so much to offer, wonderful activities to get involved in and unique places to visit by boat it’s what makes Muskoka so magical
What makes this property unique
We condense a lot of fun family activities into a small plot of land. From the trampoline in the back yard to the raft and water trampoline in the front, ping pong and an extensive games closet, we have all the toys to keep guests busy. (We come up between renters so we enjoy all the toys as well 😊)
