Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Balsam Lake

Tanya and Peter were very responsive and their place is so lovely! So peaceful! They really have thought of everything. Thank you very much! Would recommend to couples looking to have a unique place to stay and just have time together.

The rental place is clean and well organized. Nina is quick to respond. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place in the area.

We had a lovely stay. The place was even nicer than we expected. This is the best air bnb we’ve ever had. It was really private and really clean, which was exactly what we were looking for. They provided so many little things which just added to the overall experience. Its the small things that go a long way. The place was really open concept and just really well furnished. Gave a fantastic vibe. The hot stub was clean, private and lovely. You wont be disappointed whatsoever here. Thank you for being a fantastic host Rebecca.

Chelsea’s place was absolutely beautiful ! Upon walking in the house, the view of the water is breathtaking and did not get old each morning while sipping our coffees. The home itself was very homey, and a great wide open space for gathering with friends. Chelsea was super helpful when booking, made recommendations and was super responsive during our stay with any questions we had. I would highly recommend a stay here - can’t get much closer to being “on the lake”!

Great place, comfortable, relaxed, with everything that you could need. On top of a great space, Pat was always very responsive and attentive. Will definitely be staying here again.

Very nice stay, if we are ever in Port Hope again we will be staying here! Close to downtown, and the place is private and well kept! Would recommend!

Art’s place is one of the best places I’ve stayed at. It’s a big property with lots of space. The waterfront was pristine with clear water and no weeds. The interior has plenty of space to play games, enjoy the view and simply just relax. We would love to spend an entire week there the next time if Art would welcome us back.

We had a wonderful stay with my family and two dogs. The home was clean, beautifully decorated, and felt very welcoming from the moment we arrived. We especially loved the peaceful, quiet surroundings and being close to nature—it made for such a relaxing getaway. Our dogs also enjoyed exploring the area. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene and comfortable stay!

My husband and I spent our first year anniversary at Lanny & Jennifer’s beautiful property. Right from the start, they made us feel right at home by greeting us and giving us a walk through of the property. We never felt so at home at an air b n b! The place is so well kept - clean, smelled great & had all the essentials. We felt safe and at home throughout the stay. The pool was well kept and the laundry was an amazing addition. The neighbour hood is quiet and close to all the stores. The hosts were extremely personable and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. We highly recommend this property and we will be back!

Derek and Doreen were extremely friendly, responsive, and hospitable, everything in the suite and in the backyard was as shown, if not better. They even gave us a gift as we had mentioned our wedding day was the day prior, couldn’t recommend them and this place enough, we would book again in a heart beat, thanks for everything Derek and Doreen!

A friend and I decided to head north for a quick night away. Taurean’s “King’s Den” apartment was the perfect choice! A gorgeous accommodation, filled with special little extras and attention to detail! We enjoyed our stay and will be back!

We had a wonderful and relaxing stay at Simona’s place! The property was beautiful with serene lake access, and the two decks made our evening hangouts especially comfortable and enjoyable. The house was well-equipped with all the amenities we needed for a stress-free and relaxing stay. Simona was incredibly kind and welcoming, and she went out of her way to make our visit comfortable, especially with our infant. Her thoughtfulness and hospitality truly made a difference. Thank you, Simona, for a memorable experience — we’d love to return!

We had a lovely stay at Anuheas. It was a perfect spot to relax. Will stay here again.

Highly recommend. The dock and the area by the lake are beautiful. And you get the entire view from the unit as well.

Wonderful hosts with outstanding HOT homemade breakfasts! Really appreciated the extra perks of magnifier make-up mirror, house coat, lush towels, several Keurig coffee pod choices and 2 choices for my own private exterior sitting area. Level access and close parking to entrance, extra wide interior doors. MaryAnn was spot on for my food choices even including 10% cream for my morning coffee and crisp bacon. Very large space with two large bedrooms, slept like a baby and the TV included all the streaming you would want Close to Art College and short drive into town of Haliburton. It was a bit chilly for June but Gerry turned on the propane fireplace then all was cozy. Book it - you won't be disappointed!

this place is the perfect get away! the host is responsive, the space was clean and cozy, plus the amenities were enjoyable. can't wait to head back there ☺️

We had a wonderful two-night stay at this cozy cottage! The highlight was definitely the hot tub — perfect for relaxing after a day outdoors. The BBQ setup was great and made evening meals easy and enjoyable. The cottage was clean, well-equipped, and surrounded by beautiful nature views, making it a peaceful escape from the city. We especially loved sitting on the deck and taking in the quiet, scenic surroundings. Would definitely come back for another getaway!

Would absolutely return! Cottage was ready when we arrived and looked exactly like the pics. Everything we needed was provided and it was spotless! The view was amazing…steps to a private dock. We were there to unwind and escape reality which is exactly what we did.

Great rustic place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. Reminded me of my childhood family cottage. It was private and had everything one needs in a semi offgrid location. Bill was prompt, accommodating and friendly. Bring more firewood than you'll think you'll need! Thanks again, Bill!

Needed a weekend to unplug and spend some time away from work. The cabin was lovely. Trails were well labeled. Instructions on how to operate and navigate the amenities were helpful and clearly laid out. Would recommend if you’re looking for a weekend escape.

Our stay at Johnny’s was amazing. Spent our anniversary by the fire and watching movies. Perfect weekend, everything about the space was as described and Johnny was very helpful with anything we needed. We would love to stay here again

The cottage was the perfect place for a relaxing long weekend with the pups. The property is private and allowed for us to wander and gather around the porch. The cottage itself was clean, well stocked, and cozy!

We loved our mini getaway! We had everything we needed and more! Sleeping was a dream. Comfy bed (and cozy couch!) Chilled by the fire…. Wandered the road…. Peaceful vibes. Kyle and his wife have thought of everything….from the record player to playing some cards by the fire! Thank you for hosting us. We appreciate your attention to detail, effortless communication and relaxed cottage experience! Much gratitude.

This was my son (9) and my second stay with Steve. It was even more amazing! Ammenities have been added including a fire pit. The trails were all amazing and well groomed. Best of all was the fishing right outside the door with Steve giving my son expert instruction! We had the honor of spending time with Steve and his beautiful wife on this trip, and they made us feel like family. Steve even showed us the Garden Hill Farmer's Market just down the road, which had amazing food, frozen meals, and the best ice cream. This is an amazing community and Steve is a great resource of it. We can't wait for our next stay!
