Everything I was looking for. As advertised; comfortable, beautiful view, relaxing. Peaceful mornings watching the lake fog dissipate with my cup of tea. Went to the Portuguese House in Huntsville one night for dinner. Highly recommend as well as this rental property.

Incredibly clean, magnificent views via an entire wall of windows overlooking the lake and a host that was very quick to respond. It was so serene and peaceful (and just 15-20 minutes to Huntsville). We can’t wait to come back!

This place was an absolute gem. The lake (Oudaze) was not overcrowded and great for chilling out. The fishing was excellent, lots of Small mouth bass. The dock was new and great to relax on. We brought our own fishing kayaks but there was supplied ones if you need. The cottage inside was very clean and spacious for the 2 of us. the beds were very comfy and slept great the whole trip. Thanks again for the great stay.

As nice as it was, we felt that the rate was a bit high, more like the price of a 5 star hotel...The owners might want to consider some kind of a screen porch as the bugs in high season are a challenge. Overall though, the place was lovely, super-quiet and very well equipped.

Fantastic Stay!

We had a fantastic stay at Villa Capri. The cottage was everything we were hoping for. Perfectly located right on a nice, quiet lake. The cottage was nicely laid out with a great view of the lake. The cottage was beautifully renovated and very comfortable. Would definitely go back.

We had the BEST time at this rental! It's close enough to Huntsville in case you want to go golfing or do any shopping but remote enough to that you truly feel like you're getting away. The lake is beautiful and not super crowded. The cottage was clean and inviting and the property owner was quick to respond if/when we needed something.If we can, we'll be back next year for sure.

Peaceful Lakefront Getaway at Villa Capri

We absolutely loved our stay at Villa Capri! If you're looking for a quiet, private lake to kayak, canoe, or paddleboard, this is the perfect spot. The kids had a blast fishing off the dock and playing in the water, which had a pleasantly sandy bottom—much better than the typical mucky walk-in. The home was spotless and stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

Lovely cottage lovely lake

We loved the views and the easy access to the lake - sandy bottom - and dock. The cottage featured amazing views of the lake in the open concept living/dining/kitchen area. Fireplaces indoors and out. Clean, comfy furniture and all the implements you could ever need in the kitchen. And our hosts were very accommodating. We will definitely go back!!!!!

The cottage was almost everything we were looking for. It was well equipped, comfortable and had delightful views and physical situation. One drawback was, the water depth off the dock was quite shallow and not terribly well suited for swimming. And, the one kayak was a single so going for a paddle together wasn’t possible. But otherwise it was a really pleasant stay.

It checked all our boxes!

Villa Capri was the perfect size for my family's stay. The property was clean, the water access was great for swimmers of all skill levels, and the lake was sandy and smooth. There's plenty of functional outdoor space to really enjoy outside and the views from the living room and kitchen were lovely. Being a short drive outside of Huntsville, I found the lake less busy and the property quieter than other stays I've had in the Muskoka area, which was a nice bonus.
