Family-friendly holiday rentals in Dysart and Others

Christine and Rebecca were amazing hosts!! The cottage was super clean, and had everything we needed. This cottage was also super fun for a big group, we played lots of volleyball, went out in the canoes, and did hot cold dips from the lake to the sauna. Amazing place, would totally go again :)

Jason had a beautiful home that we were grateful to spend our Christmas holidays at. When there was an issue with electronics that we needed help with, not only did he respond rapidly but also came in person to help rectify the issue. A beautiful home and a wonderful host. :)

Joanne has been a great host from booking all the way to check out. She has communicated with us all throughout the stay. She was kind enough to give us a flexible check in and check out time. The place was as described on the listing and instructions were quite clear as to what’s what. My family and friends had a wonderful time.

Great stay at Sasha’s! Very private, peaceful and the hot tub and sauna make the stay relaxing and a treat!

Dave was absolutely amazing with quick responses and adjusting to our last minute plan change, would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting peterborough and would like to have a quiet, clean and organized stay with all the amenities and outdoor activities.

A Perfect Getaway at a Beautiful Water View Cottage! Our group of girlfriends recently had the pleasure of staying at a lovely Airbnb cottage in Norland, and I can't recommend it enough! The location was great, with great views of the water that made every moment feel special. The cottage itself was very nice, providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere. It was well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the hosts were attentive. We were disappointed that we couldn't fully enjoy the wonderful deck due to the weather. However, the hot tub was a fantastic highlight of our stay, and we made the most of it! Overall, our stay was great, and look forward to returning. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with beautiful scenery, this is the place to be!

My fiancee and I wanted a place where we could experience winter with our 14 month old son. This cottage was perfect. It's on a beautiful, quiet, large piece of property. There was so much snow on the ground but we were still able to enjoy ourselves! There was a massive snow storm coming so unfortunately we had to end our visit early. The inside of the cottage is set up beautifully and has everything you should need. Our son is just learning to walk and had a blast zooming around the main floor. Even though we had to leave early we still enjoyed our stay and would love to check it out again. Luke, Kelce, Grady

We recently stayed at Benjamin’s Cottage, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this place was thoughtfully designed with both kids and adults in mind. It truly had everything we needed for a relaxing, fun, and memorable family getaway. The location was quiet and scenic, yet close enough to local shops, trails, and attractions. It struck the perfect balance between seclusion and convenience. Overall, the Cottage felt like a home away from home – but better. Whether you’re planning a family vacation, a friends’ retreat, or a quiet escape, this place has something for everyone. We can’t wait to come back! Thanks for having us!

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.

We had a perfectly relaxing extended weekend. Spacious, clean and practically everything we needed including a fully supplied kitchen, books to read, games and puzzles to play, and loads of firewood to make the space warm and cozy. Lots of places to sit and relax inside and outside. We enjoyed the view of the lake either on the decks or inside through the large windows. Heidi was very responsive to messages and her instructions were clear and easy to follow. We look forward to coming back in the fall or winter months.

Beautiful place! Can’t wait to return. The fishing is fantastic here! Thank you so much Stephanie you are a fantastic host !!!

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.

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.

Our recent stay at Hollow River near Algonquin Park was everything we hoped for—and more. Nestled in a quiet setting along a peaceful river, this retreat offered the perfect balance of rustic Muskoka charm and modern amenities. The cabin is spacious and well-designed, with plenty of room to gather as a group, around the large dining table, in the cozy living area, or outdoors by the fire. At the same time, there are quiet nooks where you can retreat. It’s clear the hosts have gone out of their way to create a space that’s both comfortable and in harmony with nature. We especially loved the outdoor sauna after a day of hiking. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped. The Wi-Fi worked well too, but honestly, we were happy to unplug and enjoy the quiet.

A very cute log cabin with a beautiful waterfront on a huge property. Super private, quiet and peaceful. The kitchen was fully equipped with all the cooking utensils I needed. The bed was comfy. My dog enjoyed all the greenery.

Cost relaxing cabin stay! We had the best time at Stephen’s, place has everything you could need :) we will definitely be returning!

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.

We loved our stay at Mark and Betty's chalet. The place was quiet and clean. There was plenty of space for our two families, a beautiful deck space for enjoying a morning coffee, an indoor pool for the kids to use at the nearby resort (at a reasonable cost and only a 5 minute walk from the chalet) and plenty of hiking trails nearby. The hosts were responsive and offered helpful suggestions for things to do in the area. We especially enjoyed Mark and Betty's art collection, the many klompen (for the Dutch in us!) and the giant pileated woodpecker that would visit the birdfeed in the morning.

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

An amazing property with the most hospitable of hosts. The Cooperage House sits on a picture perfect lake surrounded by romantic ruins . It has all the amenities that you could ever want. Theater room, hottub, suana, firepit, firewood, tent outside, multiple grills, fully stocked kitchen. Bedrooms are tastefully decorated. Kitchen is luxurious. Large deck for entertaining. Large property for keeping children busy. I would highly recommend to anyone.

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

Immaculately clean, spacious, and Beautiful condo. It had everything we need and a few steps to the marina. Easy instructions to get inside and parked. I highly recommend!

We had been itching to get back up to Huntsville since we sold our fractional cottage at another place. After 4 years we finally made it back up there and it was nice to visit our old stomping grounds. It is a beautiful resort with so many amenities. We didn't get to kayak as much as we would have liked due to weather but still had a nice time. Myron is a great host. Would love to come back again

We had a great time Gord’s place!The cabin is spacious, cozy, and functional with a fully equipped kitchen and two full bathrooms. Great location with easy access to the pool and a beautiful view of the lake where you can enjoy stunning sunsets right from the deck. The grounds are meticulously maintained with beautiful flowerbeds and ample lakeshore space, very quiet,creating a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Gord and his family are exceptional hosts—friendly, respectful, accommodating, and quick to respond to any questions we had. Gord even offered a flexible check-in time and provided two heaters for a couple of chilly nights. His local recommendations for nearby attractions were also greatly appreciated. Additionally, their thoughtful gesture of providing a play kitchen structure with toys made our toddler incredibly happy. We highly recommend Gord’s place to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. Thank you for a memorable stay—we look forward to returning!
