This Airbnb was everything we wanted and more for our last long weekend of summer! The hosts Camilla & Chris were very kind and welcoming, they made us feel right at home as soon as we arrived. The guesthouse was cozy and fully equipped (salt, pepper, oil, pots, pans, pizza cutter, you name it!), the pond on the property was extremely inviting and the horses they have are beautiful, gentle and great to ride. It’s hard to believe such an amazing place exists just 1 hour from Toronto where you can escape and enjoy some piece and quiet - We will definitely be staying here again in the future!

Amazing stay, perfect hosts!

The guest house is amazing and had everything we needed. Very pleasant and relaxing. Great hospitality. WiFi was flaky, however. Cell signal was fine though.

What a lovely weekend! It was rejuvenating and just what we needed. A lovely property filled with things to explore, friendly animals, and an excellent host. A perfect escape from city life in a comfortable and unique accommodation. My kids had a blast! We will be back!

The location of the guest house was extremely picturesque. It was a short driving distance to many locations in the Lake Scugog area. We were allowed full access to the 30 acre property which we used to go snowshoeing. We were very happy with our stay.

I would say everything is fun and nice here. The horses,dogs, and cat are so cute. The room is nature and clean. The host is really nice in horse lesson.

We had a great time at the property, it was peaceful and relaxing!!!

The garden and the pound were beautiful. However we specifically filtered houses with working shower and kitchen and wifi. Such a disappointment the fridge and microwave didn't work at all. No hot water to take shower and no wifi. Owner needs to be transparent as we needed those amenities.

The host canceled this reservation 11 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Ensure you bring bug spray and make sure you pick everything up that you need in town in one go, otherwise the drive to and back will be about 40 minutes. Awesome place otherwise.

Great location, everything basic was provided, clean, peaceful and very spacious! We enjoyed the huge backyard with the dock. The lake was great for kayaking (not good for swimming). The family was very pleased with the place and I was very impressed with Zain's hospitality as he kept in touch throughout the whole weekend making sure we had everything and were enjoying ourselves. We appreciate the later checkout as well. Thank you.

overall stay was good for the price it was definitely worth it

Pros: Good for the price. A "no frills" getaway close to the GTA. Huge yard, lots of space for a large family or group of friends. Beautiful views from dock. Cons: Very limited kitchen - would suggest bringing everything you need with you (i.e. knives for food prep, pans, coffee maker, kettle, etc). No bbq. Tap water has very high iron content and gives off a strong metal odor. Cottage was really stuffy/damp smelling when we arrived. Water in front of cottage not good for swimming.

Wonderful spot. Private and quiet . . . It made for a lovely retreat!

Nice location with lots of space

Great location and facilities. Spacious rooms, convenient kitchen wares and laundry, lovely dock to the lake in backyard. We 2 families had a great weekend and want to come back again.

The cottage is great! My family and I enjoyed our stay. The Host is very nice.

This is a perfect spot for getting out of the city and enjoying nature! The farm is beautiful and Martin was a great host. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone!

This has been a wonderful stay. Terry and Brian have made us feel incredibly welcomed and at home. Marley, our dog, has loved the property as much as we have. Setting and views are amazing. Lots of wildlife to watch from balcony and sunsets are gorgeous. Highly recommend this property for its character, amenities, views and hosts!

We stayed here for 2 months to get away from the city for a relaxing and peaceful summer and it couldn't have exceeded our expectations more! Terry and Brian are extremely gracious and welcoming hosts and the coach house and land is very well kept, comfortable and gorgeous.

We were welcomed by Terry on arrival. Lovely hosts & beautiful property and home. This was perfect for what we needed, and my dogs settled in right away.

This was the perfect escape from the city for a weekend!! There was a barbecue to use and the deck/yard was lovely for relaxing. Larry and Judy were fantastic hosts and were so kind and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The views of the lake were gorgeous and the space itself was cozy, clean, and inviting! Overall, both my friend and I would absolutely stay again!

Larry and Judy's place was perfect. Cozy and super comfortable place rifht above the lake. The view is amazing, you really feel like you're on the lake! I loved that we got a cottage weekend while not driving too far out of the city, grocery store not too far away and Larry and Judy provided all the necessities and more. I would definitely stay here again.

Thoughtfully outfitted, beautiful view from the window and lovely deck. Host was very welcoming and nice!

Had an incredible couple of nights on Lake Scugog. Listened to the loons calling and watched the big heron fishing for his dinner right outside my window. Larry and Judy were helpful and so caring and welcoming. I'll definitely be back!!

It was a very nice spot and conveniently located close to Toronto. Both Annie and Jeff were quick to respond to any questions and requests and it was much appreciated. We had mostly beautiful weather, hence access to the large backyard and water was great.

Annie and Jeffer were just absolutely amazing hosts, who went above and beyond to accommodate my family and I. We loved it here, the cottage is beautiful and so peaceful. We will definitely be coming here again and again :). Thank you so much Annie and Jeffer for making our vacation incredible :)

Newly renovated cottage, has a great time by the water and so close to the City. Annie and Jeff was so responsive, and accommodating. Would love to visit again soon!!!!

Annie and Jeffer were great hosts, they responded quickly when we had a question and left helpful notes around the cottage. The property is exactly as described and the view is spectacular. My family and I loved taking in the amazing sunsets in the evenings and sitting around the fire pit. We also took a trip to Port Perry which is very close and visited a local Lavender farm based on Annie's suggestion. Would definitely recommend this rental!

This cottage is beautiful and huge. Perfect for having a family get together (especially if you have multiple mini families). Bedrooms, living space and outdoor space are all bigger than they look in the photos! Water is shallow and rocky, so no diving, but it was amazing for swimming and some paddling around. The cottage has well water, which isn't an issue at all (and Peter was kind enough to leave us some city water), just something to be aware of! Georgina (15 min drive) has a water tap where you can get city filtered water if you're not into well water. The smell is pretty strong, although it is totally safe to drink. I stayed with some family for the last week of August, which was unfortunately cold this year. However we built fires, played games and had movie nights, and despite the weather it was still an amazing and comfortable trip!

We had a restful week at the cottage. The place was as described and very comfortable. Great, private lakeside area - only downside is entry is from ladder off dock. Peter was very responsive and answered questions quickly.

We had a great time at Liam's place. It's a beautiful home, very comfortable and with great decór. Top that with an incredible sunset view, and you'll start to understand why it's so easy to fall in love with this place. Liam was a great host, and provided us with plenty of information before, during and after our stay.

Had a pleasant stay at the house - really nice environment at the lake, great experience. A real retreat place, also great for families

Our immediate reaction to Liam's cottage was that it gave us immediate sense of relaxation. The quality, design and level of decor would compare to that seen in House and Home magazine. The exploration of the art work within the cottage itself was a journey back in time yet at the same time the level of technology provided was astounding. Casting the live Tesla Model 3 launch was effortless with the Smart TV which reminded me after enjoying the clean air, well manicured landscaping and the clean beach, that we have to preserve our environment otherwise cottage's like Liam's would be meaningless. Liam was very responsive via text and email and the cottage had all forms of kitchen appliances and linens necessary for our stay. The one complaint was the cottage was so neat and clean that we chose to be super careful to avoid spilling liquids and tracking in dirt from outside.

Our family had a great time in Liam's cottage, everything was amazing beyond our expectation.. The property is big and well kept with direct access to the beautiful private beach. We stayed there in September but the lake was still warm and we enjoyed swimming in a crystal clear water. The place was very private and quiet - just perfect for the relaxing WE out of the city. The cottage itself is very clean, stylish and comfortable with spa like bathroom nice fireplace and cozy bedrooms. Our host Liam was very helpful, always responded to emails within minutes before and during our stay. We couldn't have asked for a better host or property and are looking forward to another visit next year!

Liam's place was beautiful and the cottage was exactly as described. It was very peaceful and had all the amenities we needed. Be sure to bring some firewood in the winter - it helps to warm the space up! Liam was very responsive and I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice getaway.

We stayed in Liam's home over thanksgiving weekend. It was everything we hoped it would be. Really nicely decorated, beautiful location and great amenities. If you're after a relaxing weekend on the lake then look no further! Liam is really responsive and really willing to be flexible. Thanks!

This cottage is absolutely beautiful!!! Liam was very easy to get a hold of and he provided us with instructions on how to get to the cottage and some in town tips. The beach area is very rocky but the water equipment that Liam provided allowed us to drift on the water and catch some sunshine. The stairs to get down to the water are also a little narrow and steep! I would recommend this cottage to any small group looking to stay in an out of a magazine property that has the most amazing sunset views. Thanks Liam for having us.

Ik verbleef in dit huisje voor het lange weekend van mei. De locatie is echt gemakkelijk om met name de toegang van Toronto. Erg mooi gebied en het prachtige meer en ik denk dat de foto's niet het recht te doen. Yonghong is een aardige dame; ze woont in de buurt, dus het was erg makkelijk te coördineren met haar. Ook was ze erg sympathiek en behulpzaam; ze probeerde haar best voor ons om een geweldige ervaring te hebben. Het huisje is gezellig; het is zeker groter dan wat ik zag in de foto's en je kon gemakkelijk passen zo veel mensen. Er is een prachtig uitzicht op het meer van binnenuit. Het interieur ziet er misschien een beetje vreemd in het begin, maar het geeft je twee verschillende kanten (met toegang tot de buitenkant) die een badkamer die werkte goed voor ons want we waren twee koppels te delen. We vonden de buren vriendelijk en ook erg netjes als ze daar woonde. Er is een winkel aan het einde van de straat dat bijna alles verkoopt en er is ook een klein stadje met een 10 minuten rijden, waar u kunt vinden van supermarkten en LCBO. Over het algemeen is een geweldige plek om te ontspannen en te genieten van het water, vooral als je wilt vissen, varen en andere activiteiten op het water.

Yonghong was very accommodating.. she lives down the street, and was very helpful with everything we needed. The cottage is bigger than it looks, and was very comfortable for 6 people. The yard was a great place to hang out, although the neighbours are quite close, and it's too mucky to swim near the shore. The cottage and kitchen could be better equipped (ie. no mugs, only one towel). Overall, great location and easy to get to from Toronto, we had a nice weekend here!

永红是一个可爱的主机,我们知道如果需要的话,她是可用的。这是我们的第一个山寨的预订,我们得到了一些好天气并有一个真棒时间!湖泊和地区是美丽的,你必须划了一点点去游泳象湖是一个小泥状。 住宅本身适合的8位朋友有一个周末的需要走在一起,我们需要的一切,包括厨房电器及烧烤。唯一的缺点是它得到里面的夏天一点点温暖,但我们给了反馈永红这个,她似乎非常积极主动地提供所有一个很好的经验。

如在广告中描述的一切。我们都有一个伟大的时间在这个平房和永红是非常有益的和包容。

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour au chalet de Yonghong. L'emplacement du chalet est très proche de Toronto, il est idéal pour 6-8 personnes, de super propres et confortables. Il bateau de pêche et d'autres bateaux disponibles à la location, et les visiteurs de chalets ont une réduction de louer les bateaux. Yonghong et son mari sont des gens très gentils, ils répondent super rapide à toutes nos questions avant et pendant notre séjour. Le chalet était très propre, il y avait beaucoup assiettes et des bols et des fourchettes, etc fournis. Je vais certainement recommander le chalet de Yonghong à mes amis.

The location was great. If you're looking for a waterfront this place is very homey and right on the lake. The view is amazing. Although, the water isn't that swimmable due to the seaweed but if you go deeper in its fine. I came with 8 friends and we all fit. The hosts were okay, check out time was flexible. Although the cleaning lady (hosts mom) came into our side of the cottage at night and startled 2 of my friends. We paid for the cottage and expect privacy, not to get startled in the middle of the night and have someone wander the kitchen while we are inside. That is not right and it is an Invasion of privacy! There was also a man who was outside watching my friends and I, I think it was the hosts husband. It was kind of random and startled us as well. Regardless, we expect privacy. We paid to be here, not to get checked on and especially in the middle of the night or have someone wandering on our side of the cottage. The fridge wasn't working properly and some of our food went bad, they brought a freezer for us but it was late for some of our food which is a shame because we had to throw it out. The host said she had no commitment to the fridge but if you're offering to rent a place and you say it has a kitchen... we expect a working fridge!!! So don't say you have no commitment to the fridge, thats ridiculous. Also, the shower head was not working properly. We had troubles showering which is not acceptable. The Wi-Fi was on and off throughout the day. We were also charged extra for a cleaning fee. But we paid already about 152$ for cleaning and service fees. The pans were dirty and we had to clean some of it ourselves. The BBQ was rusty as well and we had to give that a good scrub. So I'm not sure as to why we are getting charged extra. Certain things went wrong in the cottage (the fridge being a main one) we lost some food and didn't get reimbursed back for it, which is fine we did not make it into a big issue. But We are still getting charged an extra cleaning fee which is not right when we had to throw away our own food because the hosts did not provide a proper working refridgerator. So they really need to take that into consideration. Overall, the location and views were amazing. But there are certain things that need to be fixed. Fridge, shower head, privacy issues, Wi-Fi.

我们没有得到满足永红,但她是一个伟大的主持人,非常敏感与我所有的问题,并与我们的进/出检查超级灵活。小屋很简单,但有我们需要的一切。永红开辟了我们加热器我们到来之前,由于天气寒冷,虽然第一个晚上第二天晚上两个大卧室是非常冷,后加热确实起了作用,这是非常愉快的入睡。 该社区是非常安静,虽然它有点距离城市较远的 - 个人认为它并不是完美的第一个计时器到多伦多,你要驾驶1半小时才回城,如果你想有一个get从城市,还是不打算去城里所有的时间了,这将是一个完美的住宿地点。小屋就在湖前,太糟糕了,我们没有得到享受太多,因为温度低的外部,但我敢肯定它会变得更好时,它的温暖外,你可以通过坐湖与家人或朋友,有一些烧烤,或者从永红租一条船。 谢谢!

What a deal!! My friends and I had a great time at Yonghong's cottage. The price is super reasonable, and the place is in great shape and comfortably fit the 5 of us (with room to spare) . As per the other reviews the downside is you can't really get into the water since it has a lot of seaweed, and the paddle boat is not very practical (it was also hard to find a public beach nearby), but if you have a boating license you can rent the other boat. Yonghong is a great host and makes sure the cottage is in great shape for the guests. Would come back!

Please be advised, the places need realy big renovation, no privacy, no room door, if you go to the washroom you will smell in the kichen space between kichen and toilet, dust and bed smell every where, no light in the back. Honestly I paid 300$a day it is not even worth a 1$. I am very upset and ungry about this bed stay in Teresa house.

Teresa had great communication and was very friendly and helpful. The place was just like the pictures and with the 4 of us, it was super spacious and clean. Even without a/c the house stayed cool (we stayed in beginning of July). The kitchen was well equipped. The water was clear and great for swimming. The location is quiet even with a park two houses down and there is a convenience store 5min drive away. We had a great time and would love to stay again!

Teresa was a good host, and the cottage met our needs in order for us to enjoy our time away.

L'hôte était gentil. Cependant, tout l'endroit nécessite beaucoup de travail à faire. Superbe vue.

My family had a great time at Teresa's cottage. It was just the right kind of place for us. I think the people who complained are expecting a house on the lake, but this is a proper cottage. The place is quaint and with character. Plenty of room for 5 of us. I found it very clean and fully stocked. Big kitchen. Lovely back yard. Pet friendly. We brought a dog with us and there was an excellent space for him indoors and in the back yard. Teresa was very nice and always prompt and helpful in communication. Lake is alright. Lots of fish but we didn't catch anything that big off the dock.

Rustic place, quiet and on the water-front with a BBQ, excellent location- 1.5 hours from Toronto, great for a quick weekend getaway for a family. Teresa was an excellent host and bought us cake and wine to celebrate my mom's birthday! :)

Less than a positive experience. The owner interaction was very negative. Nice Cottage in a good area.

This place is rustic and a chilled location on the lake. Comfortable for a few people with a stove fire or outdoor fire depending on the weather. Teresa could not have gone more out of her way to be a great host, providing us with wine and cake. We hinted at asking for playing cards and an hour later Teresa returned from having driven to the store with a couple of packs of playing cards - this was above and beyond! I'd recommend this accommodation as a quick getaway from Toronto in rustic accommodation.
