We had an amazing stay at Erin’s property. The cottage was extremely clean and has so many fun amenities. Erin was very responsive and helpful. We all wished we booked a longer stay
The cottage is beautiful and everything we needed was there. The kitchen was well stocked, the furniture was inviting and comfortable, lots of space for our group of 8 and the kids loved the games room! Our host Erin was thoughtful and attentive. The location of the cottage was perfect for our group, close to Hidden Valley Ski Hill and close to Arrowhead Park for skating the trail. Wonderful to enjoy the hot tub after a day of winter activities! The town of Huntsville is nearby to pick up anything needed, or for a restaurant or treat.Thanks you for a great getaway!
Stayed for several days with our adult children and our grandchildren. Well adorned home with every possible amenity for all ages. Spotless on arrival, everything as advertised, ideal location on the water.
Erin's cottage was absolutely beautiful! It was spotless, beautifully decorated and had all the amenities and comforts that helped to make our stay wonderful. The pictures online are accurate, but the cottage is even more beautiful in person! We loved our stay, and would go back anytime! Highly recommend this property!
Our family of 6 was in need of a getaway over the holidays and the Waterfront Cottage did NOT disappoint! The home is absolutely stunning and the property is beautiful. We immediately settled in playing board games while the snow fell and the stress from our busy lives fell away. And if you need to make a trip to Main Street, it's only 10 minutes away. We highly recommend that you choose the Waterfront Cottage for your next holiday. You will not be disappointed!
Beautifully maintained cottage on a beautiful waterfront property. Great for friends and family wanting a quiet escape along the Muskoka River. Neighbours are also so friendly. The cottage is equipped with all the essentials to make your stay super comfortable. Highly recommend staying here!
We were 2 families (4 adults and 3 teens/kids) sharing this spacious cottage together for our annual summer getaway. This spot did not disappoint with great water sports, indoor games, well-equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. We made use of everything and appreciated all the little touches and conveniences.
