Well parking was far from cabin had to care in Stuff down bad stairs cabin was well equipped and clean but close together but privacy outside was bad Beach area right in front of outside area and everyone who use canoe had to cross in front of our cabin fire pits to close together so didn’t sit outside or have fire view of lake was nice from window don’t think I would go again there sorry it is more for kids and dogs if you don’t care that you are close together

Cabins were nice by the lake, cabins are clean but needs to be updated. Water for washing, showering was scarce.

Thank you for providing feedback for your stay. The water we used for shower and washer are from the lake, and the water is filtered through a UV filtration system to kill the bacteria and the water is submitted for testing every month. Unfortunately the UV filtration system cannot remove the colour of the water, but only the bacteria.

Decent spot in muskoka!
Overall the stay was good. The location is great. The cabin was quaint and comfortable. It was close to everything. The lake is beautiful. We met some cool people staying beside us. The price was right. The only thing is it is close to the road and traffic is constant. The owners were pleasant and nice. We would definately recommend and return.

This was a very nice property. Owners were very nice. My girlfriend and I stayed for a week and enjoyed the cabin. It was small which is understandable and we came during a hot week which made the cabin stuffy so bring fans if you have them. Free paddle and row boat use. Also no laundry except for the laundromat in Bala. Tap water is yellow. All in all, a great location and a great price. Will stay there again.

Affordable Great family getaway!
The total stay is great!!! The cottage is old but very functional, our Cabin#10 is newly painted 2-bedroom. Beds are old, one bed needs mattress replacement which can be done anytime by the owners. The owners are very nice.

Great weekend getaway
Thanksgiving weekend at the cabin. Clean small pet friendly cabin with lake views, own fire pit and bbq, fridge, stove, cooking vessels etc..just pack a cooler. Easy access to local towns, provincial park, hiking trails if that's your thing, or just chill on the dock.

I loved that it was right on the lake. The fire pit was great we had a fire every night of our stay. Cottage was small but efficient. We went canoeing, paddle boating and fishing. It was a lovely time. The only downfall to the property was the noise of traffic from the highway. This didn't spoil our stay.

Overall a wonderful experience. This was our third year here and it continues to impress. This year we stayed in a different cabin, the previous two were in a different cabin. The only feedback I have would be regarding the bed and pillows. The bed was very hard and dated. The pillows were flat and uncomfortable.

Cabin was rustic but very comfortable. It had everything needed!! The view and setting was awesome at the lake. Had met some other great people there. Had a fire one night down at edge of the water. Close to Bala for going to the Kee to Bala for a show. Would definitely stay again.

The cabins are cleaned and well equipped with everything you need. Individual firepits and bbqs are very nice to have. Little shallow beach for children to play in works well. Enough pedal boats and canoes for everyone. Setting is lovely.

Rustic cabin on the lake
If you are looking for a cottage stay that is easy going, comfortable, and has great views this might be the place for you. It isn't fancy so the kids and dogs can swim without you worrying about the furniture. It is right on the lake, lots of trees, sandy lake bottom. There are paddle boats, fishing boats, and canoes. There is a BBQ, picnic table, and fire pit for each cabin. The new owners are renovating and upgrading. Not fancy but relaxing.
