Beachfront holiday rental in Hastings County

I had the pleasure of spending a wonderful week at the cottage with my 2 boys. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. The outdoor spaces were beautuful and the kids and I spent a lot of time on the swings and in the hammock. The lake was perfect for swimming (the kids especially loved the big floating mat) and we enjoyed exploring the lake in the canoe as well! The kids have been asking to go back ever since!

Ron & Amanda’s place is absolutely incredible. We absolutely loved and enjoyed every part of the space! The outdoor kitchen & hot tub set up is amazing! From paddle boarding, lying in the sun, hanging out in the hot tub or roasting marshmallows by the fire, this space has everything we could have imagined! We cannot wait to be back!

Our stay was wonderful, the property is beautifully located on the lake with amazing views. The property itself was very clean, with all the necessary amenities and more. It is a very cozy cottage where we felt at home during our visit. We would definitely recommend this location for anyone looking for a serene getaway.

The cottage was nice, clean and quiet, easy to find and close enough to town (Lakefield) to secure any items we forgot, and a Tim's for those who can't go without. The waterway was quiet out to the larger lake area, easy enough to paddleboard or row out to. Plenty of fish off the dock if that is your go to. Not sure if it was just the season, but no mosquito bites at all, and with no bug spray on.. maybe we got lucky. Sean was easy and pleasant to communicate with, no issues at all during our stay.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Patti and Dennis’s place! The location is stunning- right next to the lake with great views. Patti and Dennis were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts. We stayed with our 5 month old puppy, and they were so accommodating about it. We arrived earlier than the planned check-in time as our travel time was less than what we predicted. It meant a lot to us as first time pet travellers that we could check-in early. The home was cozy and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We had to leave the place early unfortunately due to work call and couldn’t enjoy kayak or paddling that they offered. Highly recommend this gem of a stay to anyone looking for peace, beauty and genuinely lovely hosts!

The cottage was great! Perfect for a weekend out of the city, our group and I loved the entire experience. Janice was very helpful and even left a very sweet personal touch for our stay. Would definitely stay again.

My partner and our dog spent a long weekend at Peter's cabin in the woods in mid-June, and it was perfect! Very private but only a 10 minute drive into Bancroft which had everything we could possibly have needed. Beautiful space (indoor and out) with everything we could have possibly needed. It's a perfect location for a weekend getaway! There was a booklet with clear instruction on the wood-burning fire, generator and battery, and the water situation, as well as a map of the property. We tried getting to 'beach 2' but there wasn't a clear path and couldn't find it, but the main beach was a 5 minute walk away and was beautiful, Completely private, sandy, and with clear water that was great to swim/float around in. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet weekend getaway, and will almost definitely come back. Just make sure you keep the bug spray nearby!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lorie's cottage! The cottage was incredibly clean and well-stocked with everything we needed and more. Despite the first two days being cold and rainy, we had a fantastic time indoors, spending quality time with our kids playing board games and doing puzzles. Once the weather improved, we took full advantage of the lake. The water was warm and perfect for swimming, and we loved having access to kayaks, a pedal boat, and paddle boards. It's the ideal place for a peaceful escape, and we would highly recommend Lorie's cottage to anyone looking for a quiet retreat.

Probably the best Airbnb experience we had. Scott made us feel very welcomed since the first text message. He is also generous host, responsive and communicative. Kitchen is fully equipped. House is very cleaned and the set up is very efficient. Highly recommended!

We had such a good time! The pictures didn’t do the place justice, we were pleasantly surprised when we got to the cottage.

This was a fun, peaceful trailer park resort with amazing amenities and gorgeous surroundings. While the trailer homes were close to each other, the fact that it was a quiet family environment, and that our spot was positioned towards the woods and had just the right window dressings, meant that we still had all the privacy we wanted. We would definitely consider coming back again. Jacqueline's place was a great place to rest up after a fun day.

Very pleasant stay, perfect for a big family. It accommodate us very well. We enjoyed this cottage!

Our family cannot recommend this place more ; it will always hold such a special place in our heart. The cottage and surroundings were incredible - clean, spacious, fully equipped. The neighborhood offers so many activities close by, perfect for all ages. Jennifer is an incredible host and will make sure you have all the info you need to take advantage of your stay (and Sandbanks). we will definitely be coming back ✨

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).

My family had a great time at the resort. Roberto was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. The home was clean and comfortable and exactly as pictured. It was. Perfect spot for kids as there is tons to do on the resort grounds and you are 15 minutes from almost all major attractions. The pool was fantastic for kids with a very large shallow end, towel service, life jackets etc. will definitely return next time we are in PEC.

We had a great time staying in Kevin’s home. He is extremely kind and helpful! We felt right at home and very comfortable. We caught a couple of fish right off his dock! Beautiful home and really beautiful scenery. We will definitely come back!!

Great location… we had a chance to view the northern lights and the milky way. The place even offered a canoe, paddle boat and kayaks. Plenty of firewood was available as well. We had the perfect long weekend getaway.

Jackie’s cottage is an amazing and authentic way to enjoy the Canadian countryside. We felt very at home. Jackie was super responsive in case we had any questions. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home. Would recommend to all.

My partner and I had a grand time at Mackenzie’s. The weekend was rainy and when the sun came out on our last day, Mackenzie graciously offered a late check out which we appreciated so much. The place was cozy, clean and matches the pictures. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed to cook. The view was priceless, we were right on the lake and had some meals and drinks on the deck overlooking the water. It was a very lovely weekend, the only negative thing was it had to end and we had to leave! Will definitely be back again. Thank you again, Mackenzie, for opening your place to us!

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!

Our stay at Chris' cottage was fantastic. The place was exactly as advertised, super clean with a great dock for fishing and lots of outdoor activities for our busy kids. Check in and check out were easy and the host was very responsive and helpful.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Lots of private space and gorgeous views. The water was nice and Sandy, not weedy or rocky - perfect. Kim always responded super quickly and made all the instructions super clear. We were celebrating a birthday and they left some bday cupcakes and a sweet note along with it - lovely touch. Would recommend 10/10

Nice winter getaway! Close to the town and very peaceful. We enjoyed this cottage very much - it was exactly what we needed!

The place was absolutely breathtaking, from the stunning views to the beautifully designed rooms, everything exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, tasteful and cozy. The home was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, making our stay super comfortable. What truly made this experience stand out was the host’s generosity and hospitality. Abigail went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home. Communication was effortless with her, fast, friendly, and always helpful. We genuinely didn’t feel like we were missing a single thing. Entertainment options and the place were great, but honestly, the highlight of the entire stay was the host herself. Hands down, the best host we’ve ever had on Airbnb. We’re already looking forward to coming back! Highly recommend.
