Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Lake Joseph

We had a wonderful time celebrating our friend’s bachelorette. We’ll definitely have to come back one day when it’s a little warmer!

Stayed here for my daughter’s dance competition weekend and it was perfect! The place was easy to get to and close to downtown and other surrounding areas. Loved that they allow pets, and everything was super clean with no issues at all. Would definitely book again!

Clean , cozy place with all the amenities you'll need. Short walk to a public little beach. Even our Molly enjoyed exploring the fenced in yard and local trails. Cheryl R.

We had a lovely stay. The place was even nicer than we expected. This is the best air bnb we’ve ever had. It was really private and really clean, which was exactly what we were looking for. They provided so many little things which just added to the overall experience. Its the small things that go a long way. The place was really open concept and just really well furnished. Gave a fantastic vibe. The hot stub was clean, private and lovely. You wont be disappointed whatsoever here. Thank you for being a fantastic host Rebecca.

Chelsea’s place was absolutely beautiful ! Upon walking in the house, the view of the water is breathtaking and did not get old each morning while sipping our coffees. The home itself was very homey, and a great wide open space for gathering with friends. Chelsea was super helpful when booking, made recommendations and was super responsive during our stay with any questions we had. I would highly recommend a stay here - can’t get much closer to being “on the lake”!

My friends and I had an amazing time at Ken and Rebecca’s place. We would love to visit again and highly recommend.

Amazing responsiveness from pre-booking through to checkout! When you walk in the front door the view is stunning, and gets even better at sunset. Everything you need is readily available, kitchen has all you’d need. Loved the open living space for conversation. Even though neighbours are close, it still feels quite private on the deck and in the yard. Highly recommend this place for a smaller group. Just be sure you’re all ok with stairs as the bedrooms are all downstairs. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home!

We had a lovely and relaxing stay at Sawdust City Haus. Everything was clean and tidy, the decor was cute and cozy, and the house was well-stocked with everything that we needed. (We especially appreciated the fully-equipped kitchen and the selection of board games!) The instruction booklet with information about the house as well as local attractions was extremely helpful. We loved soaking in the hot tub and getting up close and personal with the neighbourhood deer! Oh, and the beds are super comfortable too. Devon was a great host; always responsive and helpful. Thank you for everything!

We were in town for a wedding and had a great stay at Michelle’s place. Great location in the heart of Port Carling but still private enough to relax on the large deck and enjoy the view of the water. Would definitely stay again.

Hands down the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in After almost three years of Airbnbs around the world, this one in Canada tops them all. We stayed in both the Lookout (the little house) and the Pine Lodge (above the store)—and didn’t want to leave. The Lookout felt like a cozy sanctuary: garden, sauna, spotless, fully equipped. The Pine Lodge had a steam room (huge bonus!), comfy couches, a big dining table, and a fire always going. But what made it truly special were Krystal and Madison—the kindest, most caring hosts we’ve ever had. It felt like arriving at friends’, not strangers’. During a freak ice storm, they moved us to a backup-powered house and even brought us food. Just wow. Local tips: • Cawaja Store: best coffee, insane ice cream, and local broths, pies, soups. • Mums Restaurant: old-school diner, fresh, cooked-to-order food. • The Friendly Corner: lovely for sunny outdoor meals.

Words can hardly capture the magic of Cathy’s BnB in Wasaga. From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew we were about to experience something special. This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a destination in itself, a beautifully curated space that feels like stepping into the pages of an artist’s journal. The first thing that struck us was the atmosphere — peaceful, welcoming, and infused with personality. Every inch of the property is meticulously thought out and bursting with creativity. You can feel Cathy’s heart in every detail. It’s clear that this isn’t just a business for her — it’s a lifelong passion project rooted in artistry and hospitality. Cathy’s background in the arts and event world shines through in the most delightful ways. If you’re looking for something more than just a rental, if you want to stay somewhere that feeds your soul as much as it rests your body, Cathy’s BnB is it. Thank you so much for our stay!

Beyond grateful for Lesley & Ian. Absolutely loved this piece of Paradise. You were both so very friendly & helpful. The place was Peaceful & had such a beautiful view from any room. We truly look forward to staying here again in the near future. Thank you once again for everything

Such a beautifully decorated and well-appointed space for our last minute “mini-moon!” The apartment was spotless and had absolutely everything we needed, and then some. The thoughtful touches (robes, slippers, treats) were much appreciated. We loved the hot tub with the river view. Robert and Taurean were friendly and very responsive hosts! We would return in a heartbeat.

We absolutely loved our stay at Chantal and Sylvain’s place! From the moment we walked in, we were very impressed by this clean, cozy, and beautifully-furnished home-away-from-home. Our hosts thought of everything, and were friendly, responsive and helpful. Their place is complete with everything you could need for a comfortable stay, in addition to some additional thoughtful, special touches. We had fun playing some of the many available board games, and found it so peaceful to sit in their quiet backyard, surrounded by trees. We LOVED lounging in the beautiful hot tub. Next time we’re in Coldwater, we would definitely stay at Chantal and Sylvain’s place again! Highly recommend!

Tranquil and completely private place. If you are looking for a perfect spot in heart of muskoka, this is the place for you! Loved the private dock and kayak facility. Super nice hosts. Would love to stay over on my next visit.

Everything was perfect - thank you. will definitely be back.

Despite the cold weather, my husband and I had an incredible time at Catherine’s cottage. Close enough to the city centre that we could grab anything we forgot, but isolated enough that we felt we were the only two people. Thank you so much for the great stay, we cannot wait to come back.

Laura was a responsive host. We had a great time at the cottage. The fireplace was a bonus for this spring’s cold and rainy weather. In fact, Laura brought us backup firewood to put our mind at ease. The wifi was stable as an added bonus. Thank you for having us, Laura!

This place is awesome for a break from the hustle and bustle! Close to town but when you’re there it feels like you’ve stepped back in time. Chad was responsive and very helpful when we had a technical issue that became easy to resolve. I’d recommend to anyone on the fence, this is it!

My boyfriend and I pick a new cottage to stay at every May for his birthday and this was by far the nicest one we’ve stayed in! Andrew had fantastic communication throughout the whole process, and upon asking, his wife even was kind enough to decorate the cabin for his birthday - which made all the difference to our trip. The cabin is exactly like the listing and we found the kitchen especially had every possible amenity we could need! Property was beautiful and very peaceful and private, Andrew also provided very useful tips on the best trails before our arrival! Overall we rate this a 10/10 and can’t wait to come back to stay!

This was the best way to experience the beauty of Ontario. The rusty cabin is clean and warm, with many old records and fascinating books when it gets dark, and well maintained kayaks for daytime. Bill is an amazing guy, holding some of the history and knowledge of the place in his heart and he is so willing to share it with the others. Book this place to get a sweet taste of Algonquin and Little Hawk lake.

Lovely spot and as advertised. Great host(s) and very friendly.

Our family of three spent two nights at Leah and Kevin’s cabin. The property is beautiful, private and peaceful; surrounded by forest. The cabin itself was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The wood burning stove guarantees a cozy stay. The cabin is perfectly located, everything within a short distance drive. Looking forward to coming back in the future!

Our stay at Otter Lake was relaxing and enjoyable. Photos don't do this cottage justice, it was extremely spacious for us (4 adults and 1 pet). We spent most of our time swimming in the lake, bbqing, sitting on the dock or around the fire pit. The lake is soooo peaceful and when we arrived we were greeted by a loon 🥹. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat, thank you for your hospitality, Taylor!
