Communication with the host was so easy and check in was also a breeze. We loved the views and the many perks (kayak, paddle boat, dock chairs…)Our dogs loved the property too. We also enjoyed nearby Bancroft and Princess Sodalite Rock Farm.Gorgeous home on the water. We would love to come back sometime.

Clean with a great interior setup. We loved the wood burning fireplace. The best part was being right next to the lake and the clear view from the cottage.

We had a wonderful stay here. The satellite tv wasn't working but that was a minor issue since everything else was great. Our family, including our dog, enjoyed swimming and playing in the lake. And the bird watching was excellent, especially the loons. Nice & close to Bancroft for grocery shopping etc. Definitely recommend!

We had a great long weekend! The size of the cottage was perfect and cozy for us 6, we made the one small bathroom work, even for getting ready for a wedding! The expansive deck just outside the door and the dock was fabulous for hanging out. We watched a movie one night, used the fire pit one night. Perfect stay!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Dream View Redmond Bay! The location is absolutely stunning, right on the water with beautiful views. The cottage itself was clean and cozy, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. Loved that it's pet friendly and fenced off We spent our days swimming, fishing, kayaking, and enjoying the peace and quiet from the dock. The nearby town of Bancroft was a short drive away which was great for groceries and hiking to Eagles Nest Lookout. We highly recommend this cottage for a relaxing and peaceful getaway and plan to return in the future!

Checks all the boxes for a perfect cottage stay

We loved this cottage. It has the old-fashioned charm of the cottages we grew up with, with all the modern comforts we appreciate now. Beautiful picture window looking out on the lake. We even had a visit from three loons!

Great place!

Amazing deck and dock, very clean and bright interior. Lots of windows with beautiful view, AC worked well. Nice gradual entrance into lake and easy to jump off dock too. Host was easy to contact and very helpful. Feels private as no neighbours are nearby, just the road beside so can hear the cars at times. Boat launch next door too. Great living area with TV and couches were very comfortable for at night or during rainy times.

Beautiful Baptiste Lake

Wonderful week at this true cottage! The hosts were fantastic and so generous with all the extra unexpected amenities. Pet friendly made it a true vacation as we could have our dog with us. No surprise visits all week, just privacy and relaxation. We will definitely choose this destination again! Highly recommend!!

Beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful, cozy cottage. The cottage is very private, and very peaceful. Best part for us was the campfire located so close to the water, and the beautiful dock. Loons, geese, and ducks were all very active and vocal. The close proximity to Bancroft was also very convenient. The owners are very responsive and easy going.

An Excellent Stay on Redmond Bay!

The accommodation and location were wonderful - close enough to shopping/restaurants (10-15 minutes drive), but far enough that you could enjoy some peace and quiet by the lake. We stayed the first week of October which was perfect to watch all the leaves changing colour (and we were lucky to have some 20+ degrees days as well!). Kayla was very informative and responsive to any questions I had and check-in / out was a breeze! We highly recommend driving around nearby Baptiste Lake as the views are absolutely stunning! Would happily book again!

We just returned from a perfect long-weekend getaway! The cottage was clean, well appointed and had everything we needed. It was exactly like the pictures. It was cool in the evenings so the heat helped out. The waterfront on the property could not have been better! The dock was perfect for sitting on during the day to enjoy the last days of nice weather. Our son used the kayak and everyone had a great time. There was supposed to be 5 of us plus dogs but ended up being only 3 of us with 1 dog. The place would still have been the perfect size if our other 2 family members came. We hope to book another stay at this beautiful cottage!

So good!

Our stay at Sally’s cottage was excellent! Very clean, comfortable and cozy. Waking up to that view, being so close to the water, reading & bbq’ing on the deck, fishing from the dock, just so relaxing. We had everything that we needed for a week of peace and quiet. Kayla was an excellent hostess, kind and quick to respond. We look forward to returning to Sally’s in the future.

Peace and quiet

This was our second time coming back to the cottage and again, the 3 of us had a wonderful time. Every morning enjoying the sights and sounds of the loon family. My Dad caught bass and pike every day from the dock, he was thrilled! I really enjoyed the kayak and paddle board. Then in the evenings we sat on the lower deck and enjoyed the peace and quiet of the beautiful lake.

This is my second time renting this cottage and we love coming here. It’s right on a quiet area of the lake so my dog can swim freely, and we can enjoy time outside peacefully. We went up at the end of September so it was understandably quiet, but even when we came up here in the summer, it was still not super busy, didn’t have people flying past on boats regularly. The new deck was a great addition, it was so comfortable to sit there and enjoy the view. The cottage itself is nice and clean. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the tools you could need, there are even dog bowls! There is also a nice BBQ as well. Beds are comfy and rooms are a good size. The living space is great, and love the hard drive of movies for when the internet gets a bit spotty. Kayla is also super responsive and helpful with any questions!

Everything you would ever want in a Cottage

We had an awesome time, theres really not any more you could ask for when it comes to a cottage up north - beautiful lake/dock, good fishing, fire pit/stove, bbq/oven etc.. we went up to algonquin one day for a few nice hikes as well as the eagles nest trails. Spent the days swimming, fishing and kayaking and then took advantage of the awesome wood stove for some movie nights. Town is very close so it was a breeze for grocerys/restaurants, we ended up over packing for sure. Thank you Kayla for a great getaway!
