Family And Pet Friendly Lakefront Cottage With Bunkie On Oxtongue Lake

**PLEASE NOTE THAT THE BUNKIE IS SEASONAL**
*From October 1st to May1st it is ONLY the main cottage (sleeps 4) that is available*

Located minutes from world famous Algonquin Park on beautiful Oxtongue Lake. This cottage is nestled in the mature pines on a level lot and only 30 ft. from the water’s edge. Enjoy a day on the dock while the children swim and play along shallow shoreline.

Sleeps 8. The main cottage features two bedrooms with queen and two twin beds, full kitchen, bathroom and living room. The Bunkie (located even closer to the water) features two more bedrooms with one queen and full bunk beds, as well as living room and three piece bathroom.

Equipped with one canoe, two kayaks, two stand up paddle boards. Great for your paddling adventures on Oxtongue Lake, where you are only a short paddle to scenic Ragged Falls Provincial Park.

Located three hours from Toronto, and only 30 minutes away from downtown Huntsville. General store is a five-minute drive and Algonquin Outfitters is a 10 minute walk. Make this cottage your perfect family summer getaway!

We stayed at this beautiful cottage recently for a weekend getaway. Check in instructions were clear and process was smooth. The cottage is beautiful and very well stocked with everything you need for a weekend away. We had a wonderful weekend filled with boating, swimming, campfires and pure relaxation. We would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a weekend away.

We loved Freddie’s! The main cottage was amazing. Very well appointed kitchen, the best we have ever had to be honest! Cozy and comfortable. The boys loved having the bunkie to themselves at night. The location for us was fabulous and we just loved the lake. The paddle boards got a lot of use for sure. We will be back again! Thank you so much for hosting our first cottage vacation since 2020!

Our two-week stay on Oxtongue Lake was truly perfect in every way! The cottage itself, along with the beautiful bunkie, are EXACTLY as pictured on the site and extremely well stocked. Everything is immaculately clean and updated. Kitchen is well stocked and all is in perfect working order. The property is very pretty, especially during leaf season! Close to the neighbouring property, but private in every single way because of the layout of the property. We loved every aspect of our Canadian fall visit and hope to return soon!

We had a lovely stay at Freddie's in July 2023. The cottage and bunkie are well kept and clean. There are all the amenities that you want at a cottage and other nearby activities, like the rapids and the beach. The only surprise to us was how close the neighboring cottages are and how busy the lake is. That being said, the property is private. Perfect cottage for our summer vacation and super fun for our kiddos! We'd love to visit again!

Freddies was everything we hoped for when we booked it. The cottage was so cozy, comfortable and very clean, we didn't want to leave! We had access to both the main cottage and the bunkie which was perfect for our group - 2 families each with one child. The cottage is extremely well stocked and organized with all the cooking essentials as well as books, puzzles and games. The living space was really cozy for rainy days and the beds were also very comfortable. We loved the beach area and the dock and took advantage of the paddle boards, kayaks and canoes. The cottage is so close to Algonquin park that we were able to do some day hikes as well. Bridget and Will were very responsive, we were never left waiting for an answer on anything we asked. We loved our time at Freddies and hope to book again for next year!

We had a great time at this beautiful place! It is ideally situated between Algonquin Park and Huntsville on a quiet, relaxing lake. The small town of Dwight is a quick drive for supplies if you didn’t want to go to all the way to Huntsville (which is only 20-25 minutes away). The cottage and bunkie were clean, beautifully decorated and perfectly appointed. The kitchen was wonderfully organized & stocked with everything we needed and then some! We brought more than we needed to (all we really needed to bring was food and clothes). The lake is clean, sandy and shallow near the shore. Ideal for children and dogs. We really appreciated the flat lawn with a fire pit after having stayed at a cottage with multiple sets of stairs to get down to the water. We made use of the canoes, kayaks and paddle boards, all provided with the property. Definitely would recommend staying at Freddie’s to family and friends. Perfect family summer cottage time!

We really loved everything about Freddie's cottage - the location, the private access to the lake, the kitchen equipment, cozy bedrooms and the amazing smell of the soft towels were the highlights. We had an unforgettable first vacation with our new baby boy and his furry sister!

Our family had a lovely holiday on Oxtongue Lake. The cottage and bunkie were cozy, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped. There was ample outdoor seating so we could enjoy meals outdoors and lounging on the dock. We really enjoyed the kayaking. The lake is beautiful. It is a great place to vacation.

Our stay was great! The cottage was cozy, clean and comfy and the kitchen had everything you need. Very stylish! The big kids stay up late in the bunkie playing board games.The variety of water sports was great so everyone could explore the lake together. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!

This beautifully updated cottage was perfect for our family get-together. All the necessities were provided and supplies were found close by. Mornings were extra special with fog coming off the lake providing a spectacular view. A wonderful week.

We had a fantastic experience. There was everything we ever needed and more. The kiddos loved the beach and jumping off the lily pad. It was very clean and well kept. Highly recommend this cottage!

Pictures are misleading, neither building are easily accessible for anyone who uses walker/cane. Besides the main bedroom being spacious - the other ones had inches to move around. There was a foul smell that came from the sinks and from the toilet 's (which had brown water). The grill was VERY old and could use an upgrade. The "bunk house" had a musty smell and some sort privacy for each doorway would have been nice. The dock was nice and so was the dinner table.

The main cottage was lovely, the kitchen was beautiful and functional, we checked out the bunkie it also was perfect for another family/friends to stay. It place was great for our dogs, we really appreciated that there was a 3 foot fence on both sides of the property so we didn't have concerns that they would wander. The waterfront was really nice as well, the dock was great, Would have been nicer if there were steps down the front of the dock to access the water without walking through all the leaves etc that covered the lake bottom. Overall the place is a perfect getaway. We would definitely consider going again and recommending the place to our friends.

We were really looking forward to staying at the property and although it was tastefully decorated, kitchen was well equipped and the location was lovely the cottage cleanliness was not adequate. The hard surfaces in the kitchen and bathroom were marginally cleaned but kitchen shelving, bedrooms, bed frames and lamps were very dusty (a problem for those with asthma and allergies to dust), the floors were dusty (especially in corners and under beds). The windows were very dirty which we cleaned ourselves with the cleaning products provided and the mop for floors we went out to buy ourselves. Both door mats and kitchen mat were filthy. The only two hand towels provided were grey(they should be bleached), The queen bed mattress in the main cottage had a blood stain which is unacceptable. And the mattress/pillow covers heavily used and old. They didn’t smell very fresh at all. We were told that due to the Covid precautions everything would be freshly washed and replaced in between each guest. We went out and bought our own bedding. The living room carpet and couch covers smelled bad as well. We also found that the Bunkie was completely unusable due to the strong musty/damp smell, so I while my parents used the main cottage queen bedroom, my husband and I slept in the kids beds in the second bedroom. The patio chair cushions were filthy as if someone trampled them through mud. For the price per week the attention to cleanliness detail should be more attentive. I don’t understand how other reviews state that the property is clean, but upon our stay it was not.
