Wonderful Woods Bay

This was the most tastefully / beautifully decorated luxurious cottage we've rented The weather was awesome (no bugs) and the boating was spectacular The only downside was the rock path down to the dock is a little challenging for those with mobility issues Other than that an awesome stay Thank you

Great Access to Georgian Bay

Comfortable property...marina around the corner and easy access to Georgian Bay Island. Had my 16' with a 25 HP tiller and able to run as far as Frying Pan Island through protected channel. Property was as advertised and owners very responsive.

Fishing trip

Great location , close to fuel dock . Great dock to protect the boat overnight . Bring at least 300 feet of electric cord to reach the power plug to recharge boat batteries . Great deep water access - great fishing - plenty of room to turn the boat around and store the trailer . A bit tight getting back to the house - would recommend dropping your boat off at moon river marina before check in — overall great place and location !! We had a 1875 lund impact boat

Beautiful Inside and Out

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Little Big Rock cottage. "Quiet, clean, comfortable, and the owner was very accommodating," said my husband when asked what he thought of our stay. And for my part, I'd like to add: beautiful inside and out.

Family Vacation

It was a lovely cottage to spend 8 nights with our family at... very comfortable. We missed not having AC for getting to sleep most nights but it did cool down quite nicely overnight. Loved the large dining table on the deck for enjoying all of our dinners and taking in the sunsets Beautiful. Great marina and public boat launch near by to get the water toys in.

Great trip at a fantastic property

Christine's cottage/home is absolutely beautiful. Our family boys fishing trip couldn't have been better. The Woods Bay area of Georgian Bay has some of the best fishing in Ontario and coming back to the beautiful and luxury accommodations that this property provides was a welcome treat after a long day on the water. We will be back in the future for sure and highly recommend this property to anyone interested. You won't be disappointed!

Luxurious cottage

True to photos and description, this cottage exceeded our expectations. The hot tub and sunny deck provided space to unwind and enjoy the view. A trip up to the Moon River Falls was a lovely spot for a picnic. Recommend bringing your own water as the well water does have a sulphuric taste.

Very nice mid-Sept visit

The cottage is comfortable, spacious, and well equipped. The lake, dock, deck chairs, and hot tub were nice places to view the sunsets. The kitchen is ideal for any coffee addict, and there were plenty of cooking utensils, plus the knives were sharp. Shopping for food/wine was handy in Mactier, which was 25 min drive away.

Where to begin - I promised my family I would give this listing a "10/10 - Would stay again - 2 thumbs up" review. From my first inquiry thru to our last day, everything about this home was perfect. The pictures are 100% accurate. Spacious, clean, and fully stocked - this home was perfect for our family reunion. Between the two living rooms, dining room, and multiple outdoor decks, there is ample room to move about for indoor and outdoor relaxation. We enjoyed the the bracing fresh water swims off the deck. All the beds and pillows were super-comfy with plenty of fresh linens and extra towels for both bathrooms. The large capacity washer/dryer was a bonus. The kitchen was top-notch, well stocked for everything to make our family meals. The beverage fridge was a boon for after-paddling/swimming deck time. Christine's home is fully equipped for entertainment and making memories. Thank you so, so much for sharing your home. We hope to come back soon.

Nice cottage but not ideal

Cottage was quite nice and comes well equipped. Lights and so on are controlled by Alexa. Although this sounds great, my technological abilities weren't up to the task - a reflection of age no doubt. The rocks down to the dock are quite treacherous when wet, so not good for elderly or anyone with mobility challenges. Even my athletic 30 year old son slipped! You need a boat of some sort if you're going to stay here. Although the water is drinkable, it does have a bit of a smell and taste. So bring drinking water. One slight annoyance is that although the cottage is listed as having a hot tub, this comes with an extra charge which we only realized after arrival. I found the extra costs for guests and pets unusual and leaving a bad initial impression. Also, check in time is late at 5 pm and check-out at 10 am. Why? So overall, a nice cottage, OK, but not great.

Winter Solitude

A beautiful and incredibly well-equipped chalet on a quiet Georgian Bay lake just far enough from the main road... what's not to love. But the small details were so appreciated - books about the area, a Group of Seven jigsaw puzzle to work on while looking out over the water, Xmas decorations, cozy blankets and lots of candles! Christine was quick to respond to all communications too. I could imagine a summertime visit, kayaking from the dock, and enjoying all the outdoor seating areas (including the fire pit). Truly a great find!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Laing

Host profile image
I have been a host for over 13 years with properties located in Florida, Quebec and Germany as well as this location in Ontario. I enjoy decorating and making each property special so I combine antiques combined with comfortable furniture to make you feel like you are in a home environment. I also love to cookng so you have everything you need to make and serve that special meal should you choose to cook for your partner and/or friends.

Why they chose this property

We are remote enough to not be part of the crazy busy cottage scene yet close enough to drive to it. We are located amongst the islands of Massassauga Provincial Park, so lots of areas for remote boating and fishing can be found yet we are accessible by car. We also offer the most amazing sunsets as we face west.

What makes this property unique

If you are looking for the perfect location to tour Georgian Bay then our cottage is exactly what you want. We are a 15-20 minute boat ride to 'Henry's' and have a marina and public boat launch 5 minutes away. Lots of parking for your car and trailer, extra large multiples docks and decks to enjoy the outdoors.
