Cottage holiday rentals in Golden Lake

Perfect spot for a reunion getaway! Beds were super comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked! Love the pizza oven on the bbq!

We had an amazing stay at Greg’s cottage. It was the perfect getaway and the perfect mix between cozy cottage and fancy amenities! We loved the sauna and the hot tub, they were amazing additions to Greg’s. The beds were super comfortable as well which is always a plus at a cottage. Greg was always responsive and was super helpful. We cannot wait to come back to this cozy cottage! Thanks Greg!

Wait.. there is no option for 6 stars!?! Wow, where to begin!?! From check-in to check-out, our group had a fantastic time. Our host was super friendly and easy to connect with at all times. Our group had 8; 6 adults, a teen & a child. Everyone was entertained at all times from the karaoke machine, the games, the hot tub, the firepit, the kayaks & canoes, the swimming, and the stairway to haven, which was truly breathtaking taking!!! The town of Halliburton was a short 10 minutes away where we enjoyed some shopping, lunch & coffee. We were celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary; 78 & 73 years young and they rocked that staircase several times! We frequent Air B N Bs often and this is by far my new favourite. There is already talk of a return visit in the future. Highland Bliss is gourgeous, loaded with all the amenities, is spotless, super comfortable and my family is so thankful to Marcia for allowing us to visit her beautiful space and create lasting memories!

I hosted my bachelorette at this stay and it has to be one of the best places I’ve ever stayed at as an Airbnb! Highly recommend! 10/10! It has so many options to enjoy the lake (kayaks, paddle boards, trampoline all available). We all loved the 3 bathrooms since there were 7 girls, and very well accommodated everyone! Overall, excellent & perfection!

We had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was communicative and made check-in super easy. The neighbourhood was quiet, and we felt right at home during our visit. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

We had an amazing weekend getaway with 10 of our closest friends! The place was exactly as described — clean, spacious, and perfect for a group. The kitchen was well-equipped, the common areas were great for hanging out, and we really appreciated the little touches that made it feel welcoming. The host was responsive and made check-in super easy. Would definitely recommend this spot for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing group stay!

Janice’s cottage was amazing and was even better in person! It was spacious enough for our group of 9 girls and had everything we needed for a fun, relaxing weekend. Janice was super helpful and responsive, and there were tons of amenities and things to do. We had the best time and made great memories. Highly recommend!

Chorong was a great host! Leading up to our stay she was extremely responsive as I had a lot of questions! The house itself was stunning. Clearly it is taken care of and maintained very well. All of the beds were so comfortable. Outdoor area was a lovely space. Would definitely like to come back in the winter as I am sure the scenery is beautiful.

We just got back from a lovely stay at the cottage on Spectacle Lake, and even though the weather wasn’t on our side, we truly had a great time. The rain kept us mostly indoors, but the cozy fireplace turned out to be a blessing we spent our time just relaxing, listening to the rain, and soaking in the peaceful vibe. The cottage itself is tucked away in such a private, serene spot. Waking up to the sound of birds and looking out over the calm water from every window was incredibly calming. Everything was so clean and well cared for. Waking up to birdsong and calm water views from every window was such a treat. I was thrilled to finally spot a few beaver lodges in the Madawaska Valley — a small dream come true! The cottage was clean, the docks looked great, and having fresh drinking water available was such a thoughtful and sustainable touch. We didn’t get the clear skies we hoped for to stargaze, but that just gives us a reason to come back and we definitely will.

Kiki's place is like a little piece of heaven with a lake attached to it. If you want quiet, comfortable, and cosy, you don't have to look any further than this.

We loved our stay here! It is a beautiful cottage. We would love to visit again some time!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Airbnb! The view of the water is absolutely stunning, and having such easy access made it perfect for relaxing and enjoying water activities. The place was peaceful, clean, and just as described. The only small thing we missed was a washer and dryer—especially after spending time on the water, it would’ve been helpful to dry our clothes. Still, overall a great experience and would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a scenic getaway!

I will highly recommend this place. The house was absolutely amazing, infact better than the listed photos. It was very clean and had all the things you would need. Jim had taken care of every small detail, and went out of his way to ensure we had a pleasant stay - from giving us additional utilities to accommodating our request for a late checkout. He was also very responsive and courteous. We had a lovely time here and would definitely be coming back again. Special mention for the neighbors, who were very nice and friendly. Our kids ended up spending more time playing in the neighbor's backyard :) Thank you Jim for hosting us!

The cottage was immaculately clean (and I'm fussy !). Well organized, tastefully decorated with a beautiful view of the lake.... The sound of the waves lapping up on the beach while sleeping is really lovely! Would love to go back.

It's my third visit at Joshua's place and I have always enjoyed my time there.

My dad and I loved our stay!! Ainslie's property is beautiful and quiet and the space is extremely cozy. We felt right at home and would love to return!

Great spot, looked exactly as you see in the pictures, outside back porch was a nice little seating area. What I expected was fulfilled, would recommend and stay again.

This was our 3rd time staying at Jennifer and Tom's beautiful cottage. It is a great location for day trips to Ottawa yet secluded enough to just relax. Fantastic hosts and lots of personal touches. Highly recommend.

This was a great location and cottage. There was nothing major to comment on. It would have been nice if there were trails within walking distance but there's lots to do at the cottage itself (canoes, kayaks, pool table, lots of lawn space). There was a good, comfortable amount of space for all of our guests to have their own room. Ping was very responsive when messaged with any questions.

Wow!!!! It’s even prettier than the pictures! Plenty of space indoors and outdoors. We were a large family of 8 adults and there was more than enough beds, towels, dishes, glasses, and cutlery for us all. 🙌 The kayaks were fun, the fire pit was lovely, and the dock was so picturesque. Summers in Canada = mosquitoes & blackflies, so bring bug spray and/or thermocells obviously 😉 Our host was gracious, kind, and responsive - a pleasure to deal with! We can hardly wait to visit again! 😃

I have stayed at over 130 AirBnBs, likely 40 of them cottages, and this may be my favourite. The effort and care put into making this property the ultimate lake experience is overwhelming. We didn't even have the chance to sit at every beautiful spot - there just weren't enough days! The beach - the dock - the lake fire pit - the hill fire pit - the deck fireplace - the gazebo with the full table and chairs - the perfect dining table overlooking the whole lake... And that's just outside. The beds are incredibly comfortable, the soaker tub sublime, and the main living room as cozy a spot as we've ever been. Our original AirBnB was not as advertised, and Tomek made his place available at 6 pm on a Friday night for the weekend. He didn't just save our weekend -- he made it better. I can't say enough good things. Book this spot. If you're looking for a cottage weekend relaxing outside, it might be the best I've ever seen. Thank you Tomek.

We were a group of lifelong friends up for a long weekend and this place was just an amazing backdrop for a long overdue reunion. The space was impeccable, the lot was beautiful and the wood-powered sauna & hot tub were well-loved. Everything was as described -- the first person that arrived simply said "this place is incredible." The manager was super responsive and really friendly and helpful as we figured out the sauna. We've been home and hour and are already talking of booking May 2026 ... now. The place is really pretty, well-appointed and we were thrilled with the weekend.

It was an absolute delight to spend the weekend here! Kim and Dave were both super responsive and the kayak, paddle boards, lake and bonfire gave us much to do. We also enjoyed that there was stuff to do indoors in the event of rain like a fire tv stick and board games. The complimentary goodies was also a great touch! We will be back.

We had a great time staying at this cute beach house! The views are so beautiful. Melanie was a fantastic host. She went above and beyond and made our stay much more memorable. Highly recommend this spot if you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway.
