Cottage vacation rentals in Barrie

We loved Jess' place. Very cozy and felt like home. The location and house are perfect for a city escape. The area is relaxing and quiet, and all the locals seem nice. One kind neighbour even shared his logs with us to help with the fire.

This was our second time staying at Jamie’s cottage and it was just as wonderful as the first time. It is such a beautiful location and the cottage is warm and cozy with the amazing fireplace. It was a perfect spot to watch all the snow fall gently out the big windows, looking out over the river. So peaceful! We ended up having to leave early and it made us all so sad, especially our kids, so we’ve already mentally made plans to go back next winter. Jamie was super communicative and we really just enjoyed our time so much.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Aliya’s cottage. The place was exactly as described and pictured, all amenities were available and functioning as described. The place is spacious, furnished with high quality furniture, I wouldn’t hesitate to book Aliya’s cottage again. Aliya was also a great host, very thorough and timely communication!

Amazing host, great location not to far from the city . Everything you need, literally bring your cloths and toothbrush and you’re good to go. Would highly recommend. Great for family’s or small groups of friends.

We had an excellent stay at Steve’s cottage. Comfortable, super clean and had so many fun things to do! We really appreciated the gift basket and wine! It was enjoyed. Ty!

Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Muskoka cabin. Great views of the lake and was really fun to go out on the canoe and kayaks. The cabin was cozy and nice with a great kitchen and awsome living room for hanging out and relaxing. Host was extremely responsive and nice. She provided helpful clear instructions and information. Would love to go back.

Really lovely spot! The cottage is super clean, well laid out, with lots of outdoor space and tons of amenities, from the hot tub, indoor/outdoor games, etc. The neighbourhood is very quiet and peaceful, and just a few minutes walk to beach access. Really enjoyed our stay, and appreciated the hosts frequent communication and clear instructions. We hope to return!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage in the woods! It was clean, spacious, and incredibly peaceful — the perfect nature escape. The hot tub was amazing, and the game room was such a fun bonus. We also loved how cozy and comfortable the beds were, and the living room and big kitchen made it easy to relax and enjoy meals together. Just a heads-up: there are quite a few mosquitos, so be sure to bring some bug spray. Other than that, everything was perfect. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a quiet getaway surrounded by nature!

Beautiful home right on the beach, perfect for small families! Secluded from the public area of Wasaga, enjoy peace and quiet and direct beach access from this cute spot! Thanks again to the hosts

Great location , clean cottage , backyard is really nice, with a perfect sunset view. We had a relaxing weekend and would definitely visit again. Special mention to Richard, he is responsive and provided all the required information.

I stayed here for two nights and had a lovely experience. The atmosphere was peaceful, the location was convenient. Everything was clean and well-maintained, making it a comfortable and relaxing short getaway. Definitely worth considering for a quick escape!

Was super helpful and understanding loved the little details left for us about local spots and restaurants and activities to do

Great host, very responsive/helpful. House and furniture were very clean. Perfect for a family getaway.

Great little spot to get away for the weekend at an economical price. Was duck season so lots of gun action in the morning which was a bit annoying but nobody’s fault. Close to the beach and nice walking trail nearby. We had a great visit.

Absolutely beautiful place, I would 100% comeback and I would highly recommend this spot to anyone. The host was very nice and responsive. I had a great time!

Such an awesome stay! The cottage was super cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. The lakefront views were even better in person — we spent so much time just hanging out on the deck and by the water. It was the perfect spot to relax and unplug. The hosts were super friendly and made everything really easy. Honestly didn’t want to leave. Definitely coming back!

The cottage is an absolutely paradise! Fere and her wonderful family were consummate hosts - very accommodating and communicative, with great local recommendations. The cabin itself is idyllic and the perfect place for a weekend getaway; we couldn’t believe it was just an hour from the city — we really felt like we got the chance to unplug. The property is beautiful and well-maintained, with great walking trails and gardens! The cottage is comfortable and spacious, with all the necessities for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Thank you so much Fere & Noah!

This cottage is perfection. Liane & James are just SO lovely. If you're reading this, don't look any further. Just book it. We couldn't have had a better week at Follie's Cove. The cottage was the perfect mix of modern and rustic. Clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped. We felt at home instantly. The sunroom was the perfect chill spot for us and our two big dogs to get out of the sun/rain without feeling cooped up indoors. The beach was heaven for our dogs, and on a quiet end of the lake, so we saw few other people all week. The quintessential Muskoka experience! Liane and James were *beyond* wonderful. They set us up with a ton of breakfast food and desserts. Even offered to return the day after check-in to drop off more coffee. It truly felt like renting from friends. Highly recommend renting the pontoon boat from them and puttering around the lake. Wish I had more space to gush about the space and their incredible hospitality. We would book again in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful stay at Cassidy and Stephen’s cottage! The place is beautifully decorated, very well equipped, and ideally located. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Perfect for families, with plenty of toys and books for the kids to enjoy. The communication with Cassidy and Stephen was very smooth throughout our stay. Highly recommended for a cozy and family friendly getaway.

What a beautiful waterfront cottage! Navid has been very responsive and accommodating of every requests and the cottage was very clean and organized. The view was amazing and had everything you need!

My family and I had a great stay at Mr. & Mrs. Nathans place.. Place was so clean and tidy.. We will definitely go back and highly recommended ❤️

This place is extraordinary! Beautiful space to be in with a great bit of lake to enjoy. Would highly recommend, and hope to return myself some day.

Totally recommend! (But I don't want the secret to get out too much, because we'll definitely be booking again!). Michael and his partner were responsive, kind and went out of their way to help us. We had a question about the TV and they came over to help right away. Great amenities and small touches in the house: in the kitchen (everything we'd need), bathroom (extra toiletries), and even blankets on the couch! The house is beautiful and all the furniture from living room to dining room and bedrooms is quite comfortable! A bonus for a relaxed girls weekend. No complaints and we were blown away by the coziness of it all. It's in a lovely little neighbourhood too - great for strolling, near the lake.

For my birthday last weekend, I was looking for a cottage to getaway for work and to celebrate, and I immediately fell in love with this cozy little house when I saw it. It has everything I could ask for to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, just like home. I spent my birthday here, and I couldn't have asked for a better place. The Scandinavian interior style is my absolute favorite, and every detail of the decor and soft furnishings was perfectly chosen. It’s clear that the owner, Lina, put a lot of thought and care into making this space feel like a true home for visitors. Each room was spotless, and everything I needed for a comfortable stay was provided. Lina is incredibly understanding and accommodating. We all had an amazing time and are so grateful for this experience. Five stars aren’t enough to express how much we enjoyed our stay and how this beautiful house made our birthday weekend so memorable. Highly recommend!
