From Scott and family…

A gem of a retreat, 5 stars!! What a find!

This beautiful property just north of Shelburne NS, in middle Ohio nestled away from the wide world on deception lake was an unbelievable find. The last property on the winding road you a greeted by view of the lake and wonderful wrap around deck.

The cottage was clean, spacious, comfortable beds and allows you to be removed from the world with all the comforts of the modern world.

A beautiful fire wood burning fireplace, two outdoor fire pits, wharf onto the water and sand beach.

Whether you are relaxing in the Sauna or Hot tub, out on the lake in the kayaks or canoe or in the lake swimming everything about this place is about convenience and class.

From the spectacular sunrise in the morning and sunsets at night. I highly recommend this property for your next family or personal getaway. I know I will be back to Morning Mist Cottage

Amazing Family Getaway

Beautiful cottage and property. We totally enjoyed the private and peaceful setting. The lake was perfect, Such a great place to rest and enjoy nature. We saw five deer in total, a mother and two babies swam across the lake. Beavers at dusk, squirrels and a couple of bald eagles. We would highly recommend Morning Mist as a must go to vacation site. The cottage name Morning Mist lives up to its name. A truly 5 star cottage.

Dear Peter, We succeeded! The review was posted and thank you so much. I need to be my own guest and take the time to relax so that I can see what you saw. I have seen the mother deer many times bounding through the woods and I believe she was the one who helped herself and babies to my plants. I love them but found a natural product to distract them. Mr. Beaver was gone from my Lakeview but came back and with his mate? Thanks so much for your positive support of your cottage experience at Morning Mist. KInd Regards, Pauline

Relaxing Getaway

We had such a great weekend! The cottage was clean and we had everything we needed there. The lake was beautiful and for this time of year was nice to sit on the lower deck and enjoy or look out at it with a fire going inside. The sauna was also a great way to relax. This was the perfect spot and just what we needed. The owner Pauline was available for any questions we had. We would definitely go back for another stay!

Dear Gareth, Thank you for the lovely review. Happy you had a blast. Concerning the depth of the lake. Lake Deception has always been a lake without depth but it is deceptive...the lake goes on forever! i The lake can be over your head at the raft and only if we have lots of rain. That is why I ask that there be no diving. It is over my head always and I am of normal height. My grandchildren were just down and they love to jump off the raft and do a very flat dive where they skim the surface. Thank you again for choosing Morning Mist Cottage Retreat. Kind Regards, Pauline

Lovely peaceful secluded location

Very quiet cabin by the lake. Lots of water sport equipment was provided. Very clean and cute. Looks just like the pictures. Friendly host was at the cabin when we arrived. My one pup was obsessed with the chipmunks. We also saw quite a few deer and ducks. Hubs saw beavers. Husband tried out the sauna and said it was top notch. Great little compound for a family gathering.

Lovely lakehouse

Beautiful spot, very clean and comfortable. Property is secluded and surrounded by lake and forest. Very peaceful. Shelburne is about a 15-20 min drive, for groceries and anything you may need. Stayed with my teen, tween, husband, and elderly parents. We were all very comfortable and happy to spend time together in such a nice spot. Photos are very accurate. Maybe bring water shoes as the lake is a bit rocky, but shallow for any little kids. Pauline was a great host, easy to communicate with.

Do not stay here

My family and I stayed here for a week this past august, lake deception is a perfect name for this cottage. Unsteady dock, broken mirror, broken sliding door, outside light hanging by wires etc the owner states a beach area on property well there isn’t one. Hard beds cheap hand soap. The list goes on. For the cost she charges you would expect higher quality. As people who have owned a cottage in the muskoka this cottage is not even up to par. Do your self a favour and find something better.

This review shows a general lack of integrity and honesty in my experience with guests as a business owner for 25 years. Sadly, this review is a fabrication and retaliatory in nature. Mr. Doelman was unaware that VRBO remits taxes, and requires the guest pay a service fee. Added to Mr. Doelman’s dilemma, a couple who was to accompany he and his family backed out at the 11th hour leaving he and his partner to foot the bill. Hence, they both attempted to get compensation to cover their costs two weeks after they vacated my property. In good will I made Allen and Sarah aware that they paid 100 less per night in my peak season and received a 5% discount for staying seven nights. As well, they failed to pay the dog fee. Shelburne county was on fire in June and 60 families saw their homes burned to the ground. The drought was followed by torrential rains that poured down ferociously the month of July and into August. My fabulous docks which were built on a sandy beach were ripped asunder when the water level rose completely covering my docks and shifting the foundation. A huge loss for me as host and owner and disappointing to guests who expected a sandy beach. Guests were told of the rains and to take caution by entering the water from the shore. I have told guests for years it is impossible to control the weather and now more than ever. Mr. Doelman and partner not only sent me texts repeatedly comparing my property to a cottage in Ontario which is like comparing apples and oranges. It can’t be done. And lastly, when previous guests damaged my screen door on our 12-foot patio door a new one was ordered at my expense and was delivered the morning of Mr. Doelman’s arrival in the afternoon. Broken? Oh, my. I would suggest to future guests be sure you understand the terms of your reservation and if not within your budget you have time to reconsider. If you choose Morning Mist Cottage, I welcome you with bells on. As a premiere host with a five star rating these guests have attempted to destroy our 25 year reputation and for some it could be believed. Unfortunately, not everyone you meet is nice. Future guests to Morning Mist Cottage can look forward to a gutted and beautifully renovated main bathroom, an eight-person Arctic spa, two outdoor showers, a quaint and delightfully decorated outhouse with a functioning toilet and so much more. This is phase three of four phases, and the best is yet to come.

What the doctor odered.

This place is amazing. Pictures really don't do it justice. So clean, inside and out. The gardens and bird feeder attracted the hummingbirds. The view!!!! The dock!!! All 10 of us felt the stress melt away. We swam in the lake. You might need water shoes if your not use to rocks for a ways in. The canoe and kayaks were alot of fun. The kitchen and dinning table fit us all. Everything you need. We used the propane fire pit and the bbq. Thank you for all the propane. We had a chance to have a wood fire. Thank you for all the fire wood too. The town of Shelburne is not a far drive. Lucky for me I had others do the errands while I sat on the dock. lol. No one wanted to leave. It must be gorgeous in the fall.

Wow, thank you Lorraine. You must have had the magic touch with the hummingbirds. They came looking for food three days after you left when I arrived. They know good people. Thank you for the suggestion. I swam myself a couple of times for only the second time this summer and it was my thought to offer little shoes for guests. There is sand beyond the belt of but one has to get there first. Thank you again for your care and attention to the garden. It looked beautiful.

Total Escape

Pauline has created a comfortable and authentic Canadian experience with her lakeside cottage. The cottage is well provisioned and considered and unlike many rentals, feels like a home rather than a rental. Clearly she and her family have loved their cottage and you feel that, making it so much more special. The lake is gorgeous and the many areas to sit and relax are varied. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather so the various water toys and swimming platform were amazing. A really lovely property that created happy memories for my husband and I and our daughter and son in law who live in London, UK. If I were to invest in the property further, I would suggest an outdoor area that is protected from the rain and would offer a bit of shade during the day. Also - our prolific Canadian mosquitoes can be a challenge so having a screened in area for the evenings would be a huge benefit. We did love the gas fire pit in the evenings. The two canoes may also be on their last legs as they do leak. A couple of stand up paddle boards? These are merely suggestions but we had such a fabulous escape from our normal lives and hope to return again to this incredibly beautiful spot. Thank you Pauline!

Dear Tracy, Thank you for your informative feedback. Happy you appreciated the lake and the swimming and our outdoor fireplaces. Yes, it feels like home. Unfortunately, one of our kayaks was stolen two years ago and we replaced it with the two person kayak and the yellow youth kayaks. They are much more reliable than fibreglass canoes as the lake has some unexpected rocks which cause damage which can't be repaired overnight. But the canoes are my pride and joy and have been repaired regularly for 45 years. My husband and I did a lot of canoeing in our first season at Morning Mist so keeping our canoes is personal. But I never considered paddle boards and that is a wonderful suggestion which I will take you up on. Thank you again and come back again when we finish phase 3 of our renovations.

Perfect family vacation

We are so lucky to have found Morning Mist cottage. Our family of 5, along with our friends family of 5 plus their dog have just had the best 4 days enjoying this little piece of paradise. The lake was so private, and Pauline provides multiple kid/adult kayaks,life jackets and a canoe. Definitely recommend bringing some big floaties to relax in,on the lake. The beach area near the dock was also great, and the dog loved the freedom to run around and go in and out of the water. We chose to sunbathe on the huge deck, it was so spacious and we all had room to soak up the sun. The fire pit is huge and Pauline provides more than enough wood and supplies. We had one day of rain showers, but still enjoy the lake and the sauna was another perfect added touch. Our kids absolutely adored the bunkhouse! Another piece of the great character of this property. Inside the cottage, we had everything we needed. Clean, well stocked, spacious, and as advertised. Honestly, the photos don’t do this property justice. The sun rises on the water and we watched the sun set from the water/floating dock every night. 4 adults and 6kids and not once did it feel like we were cramped or needed space from each other. Pauline was very easy to communicate with and was very prompt at getting back to me regarding the one question I had. Adults and kids all agree, we had the best family summer vacation . We hope to be back again next year!

Dear Kim, Thank you so much for the detail that your used to describe your experience. So, happy you all had a great holiday. I will indeed get some floaties. I bought long foam floats but they may have not been put out. Love that you loved the beach...something I have wanted for decades and got this year when we had to use a new company to level up the deck and secure it for life. Thank you again. Kind Regards, Pauline

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Pauline Raymond

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião

Right now I have transitioned back to Canada having spent 12 years in the Bahamas teaching music education for a portion of this time while owning and operating a vacation rental in Cable Beach Nassau.
Having four adult children and eight grandchildren I am spending more time in Nova Scotia these days. Being in the outdoors, swimming in the ocean and lake, walking my toy poodle Lily, decorating/renovating, music, gardening and learning are some of my passions.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

My former husband and I were married on the land and spent summers at our cottage with our four children. In 1998 I became sole owner of Morning Mist Cottage and continue to renovate and decorate this sensational property. 'Coming home to your heart' is indeed an opportunity for relaxation and spiritual renewal, laughter and love.

It is beautiful in the spring, summer and fall and now winter. I was not at the cottage during November for 15 years until I moved back from the Bahamas. Getting ready to open sometime in April or May.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

I have maintained the rustic appeal with all new amenities. Guests repeatedly have said that the photos depict only some of the beauty that is felt on this property.

Guests love the peace, the stillness of the lake, the south facing sunshine, the forest, the adventures through swimming on the lake or canoeing/kayaking and the many options we offer having three fireplaces, a cedar sauna, comfortable beds and tons of space. Most importantly, I invested in an Artic Spa/hot tub. It is one of the finest hot tub around with a salt water system that keeps the water clean and invigorating. The potential for health benefits let alone the fun is worth it to provide for our guests.

Having grandchildren in my life I have made an adventure of the forest with new Geo Dome and swings and net for basketball.
