5 of 5

We had a great week in September to celebrate our 30th Wedding Anniversary, thanks to our family. The cottage is in a beautiful location with easy access to the water. Small sandy beach that provided a great place for our young granddaughter to wade out. Mactier is close by for groceries and supplies at the Foodland and Home Hardware and has a LCBO which is also convenient. I caught a 4lb Northern Pike while fishing from the dock!! Tree colours we're just starting to change. Thank you to Adam and Jessica.

Fantastic Muskoka Vacation

5 of 5

We rented the McCabe's cottage from August 11-18, 2017. We had a fantastic vacation there. The cottage is completely charming and comfortable and the property is gorgeous. Everything we wanted in a vacation spot was there - the use of a canoe for early morning fishing trips, lovely outdoor seating areas, great deck seating and BBQ, life jackets and pool noodles for lots of water activity, and a well-equipped kitchen. We simply loved this place and recommend it highly to anyone looking for a great getaway location.

Great cottage on a quiet lake

5 of 5

We stayed a week at the cottage. It was perfect for us. We had some friends and family join us and there was lots of room for 8 people. The cottage is on a beautiful piece of land with many areas you can walk into the water. We use the canoe and kayaks every day we were there. Our dog loved playing on the rocks and in the water. A short drive to mactier which has everything you would need for your stay - foodland, lcbo, home hardware.

Lots of different sitting areas around the cottage deck and throughout the property.

Owners were quick to deal with any problems that arose during our stay - handy having their family next door.

A great find !

5 of 5

We all quickly fell in love with this amazing place. A beautiful and comfortable cottage, a perfect location, privacy, quiet most of the time, modern appliances, comfortable beds, clean, and, bonus of all bonuses, dogs welcomed!

The first clue that we had hit a jackpot came when our three-year-old spaniel madly ran around the property for 5 minutes when we arrived... like he had found heavens. We were 4 adults, one child, and the spaniel, and we had plenty of space, in or outside of the buildings. 

Two sides of the cottage face the lake and both sides have a deck - which are connected. The deck closest to the kitchen has a large wooden table that will comfortable sit 6 people, with a great Napolean BBQ. The deck off the living / dining room has a smaller breakfast table and lounging chairs, and there are other loungers and Muskoka chairs on the property. 

Our 8-year-old granddaughter had a blast exploring the site, playing on the dock, catching (and releasing) minnows and frogs, kayaking (BYO PFD for proper fit), or in the water with everyone else. Our 81 year old mother needed help to walk around the property as it is not flat, but she did go in the water every day. Cyclists will need a touring bike for the gravel road - as I did, (I made it up the hill going out!) or, drive out to the paved roads with your road bike and ride Healey Lake road to Georgian Bay. There is a tennis court near the marina close by if tennis is your thing, but we never used it so enquire first - there may be a fee. The owners are very friendly, easy going, accommodating, and, pay attention to details, right down to the flower beds on the property. They obviously love this place - and so did we.

Hidden gem

5 of 5

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This beautiful cottage met all of our expectations: private (the kids loved exploring the little bay in kayaks and fishing in it's undisturbed waters), the truely lovely Muskoka landscape, the rustic yet clean cabin, and the little beach. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.
