Cottage holiday rentals in The Archipelago

This is a beautiful place to stay, right on the lake with an amazing view, and a friendly beaver right next door! Our highlights were the hot tub, the fire pit and kayaking on the lake. This spot would be amazing in the Summer. The house is clean and well set up, the 2 downstairs bedrooms are small but just fine for sleeping. There is plenty of room in the rest of the house.

This was a perfect stay for a long weekend. It is very cosy and had all of the amenities we needed. The fully stocked kitchen was great along with barbeques kayak and canoe. We especially enjoyed the hot tub, relaxing, looking out at the beautiful sunsets and lake. The Muskoka chairs on the dock were perfect touch. The well organize organized welcome binder is a great touch and gives you lots of ideas for things to do in the area.

Great cozy cottage with a private lake entrance. Miles was a great host. Hot tub & sauna were very enjoyable and overall the place was great.

Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Muskoka cabin. Great views of the lake and was really fun to go out on the canoe and kayaks. The cabin was cozy and nice with a great kitchen and awsome living room for hanging out and relaxing. Host was extremely responsive and nice. She provided helpful clear instructions and information. Would love to go back.

Jennifer's place was a perfect gathering point for our birthday family reunion. The accommodation was spotless, bright and warm and even had a little pack and play set up for the baby to have a nap. The grounds were stunning as was the view. Our only regret is that the weather did not cooperate so water activity was limited to a polar dip followed by a relaxing soak in the hot tub. A beautiful retreat that our family thinks should be an annual event.

What a dream of a trip to Muskoka! Eight of my friends and I stayed at this lovely cottage and had the most amazing time. The cottage itself is absolutely gorgeous and felt so welcoming, providing the perfect backdrop for our long-overdue get-together. Our host Ashley, was an absolute gem – always quick to respond and incredibly accommodating. We were so touched when they offered us an extra night because of some minor issues that were completely out of their hands. It just shows how much they care about their guests' experience. We're already dreaming of our next visit; this cottage is definitely the place we'll return to!

Really lovely spot! The cottage is super clean, well laid out, with lots of outdoor space and tons of amenities, from the hot tub, indoor/outdoor games, etc. The neighbourhood is very quiet and peaceful, and just a few minutes walk to beach access. Really enjoyed our stay, and appreciated the hosts frequent communication and clear instructions. We hope to return!

My friends and I stayed here for a winter weekend away and it was just what we needed/wanted in a little cottage. Great location for those coming from the GTA and nice and close for those in Simcoe. Once we got there we felt right at home! The hosts had cleared the walking paths and back deck of any recent snow fall which made it nice and easy to get inside and enjoy the grounds. They went above and beyond by having the wood burning stove going for us when we checked in which made CARL that much more cozy and welcoming. Communication and instructions were very clear and detailed from start to finish which made the whole rental process easy and enjoyable. My friends and I look forward to coming back to CARL in the future!

This is our second time renting from Bryan and it was another absolute pleasure. His place is very clean and peaceful! The cottage is very comfortable and inviting, plus the water is excellent. We would highly recommend anyone to consider renting from him. Thank you for another great trip!!

My husband and I both loved the whole concept of Carol's Cottage! Like everyone has mentioned pictures definitely don't do it justice!! Wow, was the first word expressed as we walked through the door into the cottage! Carol's place is so unique, so different from other places we have stayed at. We both loved the wood and stone in the kitchen area, especially the countertop, so.....beautiful!! My husband and I were very pleased with instructions to find Carol's place and to get inside. The cottage was also very neat and tidy and everything was provided for all our needs! I found things so cozy and relaxing within the cottage, especially each morning having my tea and watching birds come to the feeder on the window (great idea by the way!) Both my husband and I would love to come back and experience more! I would highly recommend Carol's Cottage for your next getaway!!

We had a great stay. The location was beautiful and the cottage was very clean, cozy, and had everything you need. The hosts were incredible responsive and accommodating.

beautiful location , very quiet and private... clean..it had everything we needed.... I only wish I brought more mosquitoe/ black fly repellents... we were unprepared , even as host nicely warned us of black fly season... It was my first experience w black flies and it was quite memorable:) I would still definitely come back.... thank you Bryan!

We loved the cabin and can't wait to return. Everything was in great working order and squicky clean. Our stay was an absolute pleasure.

Very clean and beautiful surroundings. Private and all the convenience’s of home yet feels like a cabin in the bush. Will definitely go back.

We're reluctant to post about how good this property is, we'd selfishly like to keep it a secret. The property is just beautiful, with everything you could ever need, and Graham was a fantastic host. The area is just breathtaking. We are avid boaters and had an amazing time exploring the 30,000 islands and all the beautiful beaches, hiking, fishing, and sightseeing they have to offer. If you aren't into boating, there are water taxis and plenty to do on the island, fire pits, games, a beautiful sun deck, relaxing hammocks, the list goes on. We would recommend this 100%, and we felt very lucky that Graham and his family shared it with us. We hope to return at least once next summer. Thank you to Graham, Tennille and Jane for a wonderful getaway.

We had a great stay. Cottage is stocked with everything you need and very private. Would come back for sure.

We had an amazing girls weekend at this cozy cottage! The space was perfect – just the right amount of room for our group to relax, play games, and enjoy some quality time together. It was colder than expected, but the cottage was warm and inviting, making it the perfect escape. Heidi was a fantastic host – super helpful, kind, and easy to communicate with. We’d absolutely come back again!

One of the most beautiful properties I’ve ever stayed at. Matt is great to deal with. The cottage was awesome and Dave the neighbour is super helpful and nice. Don’t be scared of river crossing it was smooth and seamless and made everything even more fun. Matt is a good guy and helpful with anything that comes up. The property is full of hiking trails and has awesome water access, great fishing, beautiful spot for a coffee in the morning. The deck is perfect for watching the sunset and the screen room is a great getaway if a little rain rolls through. All in all I’m extremely pleased with my stay in all aspects. Highly recommend.

This cottage is perfection. Liane & James are just SO lovely. If you're reading this, don't look any further. Just book it. We couldn't have had a better week at Follie's Cove. The cottage was the perfect mix of modern and rustic. Clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully equipped. We felt at home instantly. The sunroom was the perfect chill spot for us and our two big dogs to get out of the sun/rain without feeling cooped up indoors. The beach was heaven for our dogs, and on a quiet end of the lake, so we saw few other people all week. The quintessential Muskoka experience! Liane and James were *beyond* wonderful. They set us up with a ton of breakfast food and desserts. Even offered to return the day after check-in to drop off more coffee. It truly felt like renting from friends. Highly recommend renting the pontoon boat from them and puttering around the lake. Wish I had more space to gush about the space and their incredible hospitality. We would book again in a heartbeat!

We had a great time staying at Christina’s place! It was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was perfect, and Christina was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks for a great experience!

We discovered the perfect secluded getaway in this beautifully maintained property. The grounds were consistently plowed during snowfall, making our winter stay worry-free. The main cottage comfortably accommodated our group of 5, featuring a fully-equipped kitchen and a thoughtful welcome kit with snacks and coffee. Two full bathrooms with provided toiletries made sharing the space easy, and the comfortable beds ensured restful nights. The clean, spacious hot tub was perfect for relaxing after outdoor activities, and the reliable wifi kept us connected. We enjoyed both the excellent heating system and the cozy wood fireplace, all while taking in beautiful waterfront views. Killbear Provincial Park, just 40 minutes away, offered excellent winter hiking. Quick tips: bring extra towels as only one is provided per person, and pack slip-on shoes for travelling between cottages. While water has a slight odour, it tastes perfectly fine. We’d love to return in the summer! Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic stay at this charming cottage! The house was perfect, equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and worry-free experience. The host was incredibly attentive and responsive, answering all our questions promptly. Overall, a wonderful stay with great hospitality. Highly recommended!

Beautiful spot with great views, very clean and comfortable

Had a great time at cottage. Great Location on a nice calm Lake. Very easy check-in. Staff very friendly. Very Clean and nice kitchen and BBQ. Would definitely recommend staying here. The Dome and other huts on property would be fun to stay at as well. Have already recommended this property and will probably be back.
