Family-friendly holiday rentals in Bancroft

This place was absolutely beautiful, it had the perfect name of “watersedge” when inside it really does feel like your just above the water, plenty of room for our guests, everyone enjoyed the space, I would definitely airbnb this location again! Joanne was extremely friendly, helpful and very detail oriented! Highly recommend!!

Sasha was a wonderful host. The breakfasts that were included were delicious . The setting was tranquil and we enjoyed the nature around us. The place and linens were very clean and comfortable.

Our stay at Dave and Bonnie's home was amazing! There was a lot of stuff to do at home itself including hot tub, sauna, jacuzzi, TV etc. They also provide kayaks and bicycles to make the experience more memorable. We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and they had put up a mini decor for us 😇 All parts of home also had mini notes to help guide you with the small details. Places to eat at walking distance. Dave was super responsive and very kind to us during the trip. Book this place without hesitation!

It was another enjoyable stay. This is our second time staying at Micheal’s listing here in Norland. The scenery is beautiful and we enjoyed all the amenities. Thanks again for the relaxing getaway :)

This was our third year staying at Paul’s beautiful spot on the river. As a group of seven seniors this spot is extremely suitable for our needs to be on one level. A perfect place for a larger group. Thank you Paul for letting us enjoy your clean, easily accessible home for our holidays. Hopefully see you next year.

The photos don’t do this cottage justice! It is so lovely and homey, we loved spending our long weekend there!! The cottage’s kitchen is well equipped and there is even a desk and monitor upstairs which is a good set up for someone to work from the cottage. We would definitely come back!

great host and great place, worth staying here

Sarah’s property is one of the best I’ve stayed at so far. Everything from the warm hospitality and peaceful ambience to the top-notch amenities and the thoughtful organization of the space was absolutely perfect. The quality of every detail truly stood out, and the team was absolutely great, friendly, responsive, and professional throughout. A must visit for anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful and refreshing getaway.

We had an absolutely magical stay at this lakeside cottage! The attention to detail in the space was remarkable, with every corner thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. The kitchen was well-stocked, making it a joy to cook meals, and the wood-burning fireplace added the perfect cozy touch for our winter evenings. The views were breathtaking—each window felt like looking at a postcard, with stunning vistas of the lake and surrounding nature. Laura's hospitality truly stood out; she went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. The location is unbeatable. Being just a short drive to Algonquin Park allowed us to enjoy some fantastic hikes with our dog and we loved returning to the peaceful setting of the cottage afterward. This cottage is a gem, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a serene getaway or a cozy work-from-home option.

One of the best cottage experiences we’ve had! The place is so cozy and comfortable. An actual lived in vibe. Right on the lake and so gorgeous. My family and I had a wonderful time. Christine was an amazing host! Thanks so so much! Can’t wait to be back

Our second stay at Nicks retreat, just as great as the first time! 40 mins drive to Algonquin park, cute bakery and shops in maynooth and a large yard for a full game of football

We reserved the Hideaway and Nomad Cabins for 3 nights, and had a wonderfly tranquil experience. The kayak launch is a couple minutes drive away, and there are various hiking trails on the property to explore. A huge highlight of our stay was the outdoor showers! But if people feel more comfortable, there is a indoor shower in the public restroom. Additionally, the view of the stars without light pollution was absolutely amazing. Hosts were always accomodating, kind, and very quick to respond to respond to all inquiries.

We had a great time with our families during the May long weekend. The location is very beautiful and a rare find.. The theme is well laid out and rooms are in excellent condition 👍🏼 Would definitely love to visit again.

This place was a great size for our group of 10 and had a very spacious and comfortable main room where we could all gather to eat, play games and relax. The sauna is a nice feature as well. The kitchen was very well equipped. Kersti and her co-hosts were very responsive, accomodating and helpful.

We stayed at Shireen's cottage for an annual family get together and it was absolutely perfect! The cottage was even more beautiful than the photos listed. We were a group of three families with toddlers and each level had a space that accommodated us quite well! The outdoor space was spectacular - with two separate docks, one with a very kid friendly step ladder into very clean and shallow water. the only tip we would have for renter's would be to bring tin foil/ ziplocks or seran wrap - we forgot that but everything else was provided! truly perfect stay!

We had the most amazing time and made a lifetime of memories!

Had a wonderful weekend at the lodge, can’t wait to go back! Cindy thought of every little thing, all the extra little details were perfect and so thoughtful.

Natalia and Evgeney were great hosts. They were both very responsive, friendly, and accommodating. Check-in was flexible and easy thanks to Evgeney, who did a great job at setting us up with our cabin. The cabin itself was exactly as advertised. We found it to be very clean. The view of Rice Lake from our cabin was great, and the area is really peaceful and quiet. Overall, we had a great time here! It was a perfect relaxing weekend.

Margaret seemed very nice, she left croissants in the kitchen for us to have in the morning. Overall a very cozy spot to stay and we had no issues. One thing I noticed is that there's an adjoining door that connects from her side of the building to ours and I'm not sure if it locks, maybe it does but I didn't see a lock option on my side. Anyway it still felt private and we definitely got what we paid for.

Cute cottage with great amenities and host

It was a great stay and very accommodating. Kids enjoyed the pool table and foosball indoors as well as the pool and lake outside. The kitchen and view of the lake was amazing. Lots of fishing was done from the docks and petal boat and some paddling from the kayak and paddle board (we brought this).

Awesome stay! Scott was easy to communicate with and it was clean and as described

wonderful hosts who will help to solve any question in a short time, beautiful and clean accommodation that corresponds to the photo, we will be happy to return here again

This place was beautiful and homey! Honestly, the upper floor was much bigger than we expected and very clean. The bathrooms were all renovated and looked beautiful. The space was nice and kitchen was very pristine. The pool area was enjoyable and pond was nice to boat in. Would recommend this place for a nice family cottage trip :)
