Vacation rentals with lake access in Lake Muskoka

We rented Amanda's place for 2 nights in the winter and it surpassed our expectations! Amanda was a great communicator. The older cottage has been extensively renovated, it was clean, comfortable and cozy. We loved the wood stove and the heating system worked well. The kitchen is first-rate, and very well-equipped, it even had decent knives! We cook a lot and we very much enjoyed making meals there. We loved watching the ever-changing weather on the river from the picture window in the living room, and even saw a beautiful sunrise. The star of our stay was the sauna—we have a wood-burning sauna at home and at our cottage—and we were very impressed with its size, the modern design, the huge picture window and the style of stove. It got up to temperature even in -17 degree weather. We hiked and snowshoed in the Alexander Hope Smith Nature Reserve which was a walk from the cottage. The town of Washago was a 11 minute drive, with a great grocery store. Would definitely stay there again!

We had a lovely stay at Clare’s Cabin everything was as expected and she was super responsive and checking in on us incase we needed anything. Will definitely recommend for a peaceful getaway!

The place is filled with love of Pirabakaran, we can feel the efforts on all the items and supplies he provides to make our living experience way much easier and nicer. The house and space are nice and comfortable, recommended for having a relaxing lakefront cottage/house getaway with the people you love. amenities are good: kayak, floating, fire pit, huge lakefront backyard, bbq grill, pool table, darts, big living and dining area

amazing location on the waterfront. So relaxing to be away from the city. was great for travelling with kids. thank you for letting us stay

We came in from Alberta for a wedding in the area, and stayed at Tara’s place. It was much larger than we had imagined, and the property was just gorgeous! We would absolutely book with Tara again if we were back in the area.

We had a great time. Sir Sam’s ski hill nearby. Hot tub was great for those days when ski hill was not an option. There is fast internet at the cottage. Very private and quiet. We enjoyed our stay.

We stayed as three families (old room mates, partners and kids) over an extended winter weekend and had a blast. We enjoyed the hot tub and the sauna, went cross country skiing, played games in the casual downstairs games area, and had some really lovely meals and games nights in the upstairs dining room and living rooms. The space was clean and welcoming, the kitchen well-stocked, and we left with big smiles. An unfortunate incident with the propane heating was outside of Zarina's control and was quickly resolved as soon as we alerted her. We would happily return for another group outing.

Had a very nice weekend at Christina's cottage. The place is beautifully decorated and very comfortable to hang out in. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and there's a grocery store 10min away that had everything we needed. There's also a decent restaurant just a block away when we didn't feel like cooking. A few things weren't functioning due to the big ice storm just a few days earlier, but Christina was quick to respond to messages and had someone there to fix things within the hour. There was a little more snow still around than I expected for April, so we didn't use the outdoor amenities very much, but the sauna was still really nice. Port Carling is pretty quiet this time of year, but we did find a few nice hikes nearby to enjoy the scenery.

I stayed in the cottage for one night in a cozy one-room setup, and it was such a lovely experience. The place was beautifully decorated, warm, and inviting — it felt like a perfect little retreat. Everything was thoughtfully arranged to make the stay comfortable and relaxing. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and charming getaway! Thanks Cathy ☯️

Another great stay. Love this place. Clean, comfortable, and the host is fantastic. Looking forward to next time.

“We had such a great stay at this Airbnb! The house was not only beautiful, but also super cozy and inviting — it instantly felt like home. Everything was clean, well-decorated, and comfortable. On top of that, the host was amazing — super friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

We had an unforgettable stay with Leslie and Ian . The view from the apartment was gorgeous in the snowy February weather . We felt deeply comfortable and protected from the elements inside. Equipped with Amazon Alexa , my fiancée and I got the opportunity to enjoy our books to peaceful music and set a soundtrack to our morning routines . In the winter months , as Leslie and Ian state in their ad , winter tires or all wheel drive are a must for the steep driveway . Before a big night planned at Tall Trees restaurant, my Nissan with all season tires got stuck in the snow on the driveway . Ian immediately came to our aid and assisted us with the many tools at his disposal , freeing us from the snowbank and saving our night . This kindness and hospitality will not be forgotten . An excellent stay !

Doreen and Derek were excellent hosts. They were warm, friendly and receptive. The place was clean, nicely furnished and the kitchen had all necessary amenities. The neighbourhood was quiet and beautiful. We would like to visit the place again if the opportunity arises.

Wonderful and relaxing place to stay for my boyfriend and I! The complimentary toiletries, wine, freshly baked bread, cookies, etc… we really appreciated the thought and effort into making us feel welcomed. The hot tub was AMAZING and the instructions were clear to use (we were first timers). The fireplaces made us feel so relaxed and cozy during this unfortunately cold April. We would definitely come back if we find ourselves in the area again :) Thank you for having us!!

Everything was really good. There were lot of amenities in the place. If anyone is looking for neat and clean place to stay, i would recommend this place. Moreover, there is jacuzzi in there as well.

clean and cozy. free parking. need to bring your own cooking oil tho!

Very responsive host, easy to communicate with! When something is missed by the cleaner, frank was able to help us with solution. The place is very quiet and peaceful, very recommend for small families.

Returning guests here. We had another amazing getaway in Lynn’s cottage (see my previous review for specifics - it still stands).

Alan & Rosalie’s cottage was everything we could have asked for and more ! It was a perfect place to just relax and recharge after a busy fall and Christmas season. We wanted for nothing, it had everything we needed. Alan met us when we arrived and explained where everything was and how it all worked. My wife and I and our two dogs had a wonderful experience. We will most definitely be doing a return visit. If you are looking for a place to getaway and relax this is the place, highly recommend it ! Thank you Alan & Rosalie !

Best cottage. We have a very good time.

Very clean and beautiful surroundings. Private and all the convenience’s of home yet feels like a cabin in the bush. Will definitely go back.

My family couldn’t have asked for a better getaway. As far as bang for your buck goes you can’t do better. Andrew and Hali were exceptional hosts, very responsive and helpful anytime we had questions. Everything was very clean, bedrooms and furniture throughout were very comfortable. My boys would absolutely love to come back, and we’d highly recommend this place for anyone wanting a seamless experience on a beautiful lake. Thank you for such a great experience!

We had the best summer before school starts , thanks to Henry’s cottage! There lots to do, campfire, kayak, boating etc. We love the jetty by the lake and we have coffee there every morning!!! The backyard is so spacious it has the playground that kids have plenty of stuff to do! The place is very quiet at night! We also love the bedrooms and it has no problems accomodating our family plus two more. We have a good experience here and Henry is very responsive on our concerns and questions! We will definitely come back !! Thanks!!!

Really enjoyed our friends weekend getaway at this cottage. Very clean and well maintained!
