Holiday rentals with a fireplace in South Algonquin

Nortehaus is a great place for some private, peaceful time if you wanted to do indoor things. The sauna room was clean, the kitchen was big and well-stocked with kitchen equipment. It is ~30 minute drive to nearby provincial parks if you wanted to do some hikes.

The lake house was a lovely stay. First of all, the lakefront is beautiful and I enjoyed dangling my feet in the water and watching the sunset from the fire pit. The space inside was immaculate, comfortable, well-designed, and spacious. I let Andrea know the WiFi router had an issue, and within minutes she was on the phone with the company resolving the issue for me. I definitely recommend this home and would gladly stay here again.

We were so happy to stay at this cottage! The house was cozy and welcoming, and both our child and our dog had an amazing time. It was the perfect place for a fun and relaxing family getaway. We would love to come back again!

We only stayed for one night, but the place was big, clean and had everything you would need. Stacy was friendly and responded quickly to all of our questions prior to our stay. Would happily stay there again.

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.

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.

This is a beautiful place Amazing sunset Host was very responsive Highly recommended Thanks for making our stay memorable

We had a wonderful stay! Cottage was clean upon arrival with easy access. There were lots of activities to keep busy both indoor and outdoors. Lots of space to enjoy within the cottage as well. We especially enjoyed the hot tub during a cooler day!

Kaitlyn’s apartment is very sweet and well appointed. I had everything I needed, especially in the kitchen. It was very clean and comfortable. Perfect for my purposes. For those with mobility issues, it would present issues, as there is a fairly steep flight of stairs to the entrance. Otherwise, I highly recommend it.

We had a great stay. The resort and cabin were beautiful and the hospitality was truly wonderful. Tom and Erin (weekday) and Matt and Lindsey (weekend) were absolutely wonderful hosts. Check-in and out was a breeze. The cabin was perfect for the space we needed. The cabin was a bit hot during the day but it cools down at night and they provide extra fans for your comfort. The private dock and fire pit was an added bonus. The water is clear and the temperature was perfect, especially for June. The amenities were great - sauna, water toys, outdoor gym, indoor and outdoor games etc. It is close to town - 20 minutes, and they even have an office shop that runs on an honour system (which we loved) for any items you may forget! It was a truly wonderful weekend. We would recommend this spot to anyone and will definitely be back!

I am working on Stoney Lake for another year and Owen's place is always my go-to! The Airbnb has an extremely large parking area for my large trucks, boats, and other equipment. It is always a pleasure to visit with the hosts and to enjoy the peaceful surroundings that their property offers. I highly recommend this Airbnb to families, contractors, and anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in the Kawartha's.

We stayed at April’s Airbnb for a long weekend and absolutely loved it! April was incredibly helpful and understanding, especially when I needed some flexibility with scheduling. The space was spotless, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The location is perfect—just 10 minutes from downtown Huntsville. I would definitely stay here again if I'm in the area!

We had a lovely stay at the Milkweed Inn. We appreciated having an entire apartment – its spacious, has a well-equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi and was spotlessly clean. The hosts provided complimentary breakfasts at their café (The Monarch Café) which were amazing! The Inn is located in Coe Hill - a scenic area with several lakes nearby. Anita was a great host and very responsive to communications. Whether you’re staying at the Inn or not, if you’re in the area and looking for a great breakfast or scrumptious home baked goods, make sure you stop by the café.

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!

Everything was great! The place matched the description perfectly — very clean, cozy, and comfortable. The host was friendly and always ready to help. The location is surrounded by nature and close to Algonquin Park — perfect for those who enjoy peace, nature, and outdoor activities. The area felt safe and was convenient for getting around. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to relax and enjoy nature!

Excellent place to stay for a staycation!! I travelled with my dog. The house was kept very well and spacious. Loved the surroundings!

The accommodations at one time were beautiful. The house is large with many beautiful features (huge kitchen with all the amenities), large master bedroom and private en-suite, large deck with a view of the lake, and updated gas BBQ. The lake is absolutely beautiful as well. In fact, it’s one of the nicest lakes we have visited. However, the house needs a deep clean, some TLC and updating. All the screens to the doors were broken, some drawers in the kitchen were separating from their surfaces, dead bugs lay on the window sills, the floors could use a good scrub, there is a hole in the gangway to the dock, and the ladder to the dock is loose and unsafe to use. We were told there were two canoes. One was in great shape and even had seats with backs. The other should be laid to rest, as it literally was falling apart. We also found out that we could not dock a boat there because of a dispute with a neighbor. Unfortunately, the dryer broke down while we were there. We suspect that it had never been cleaned as the filter would not go in completely from all the lint and debris from years of use. We had paid for a cleaning service, but were informed a few days before arrival that the service was not available due to COVID-19 and that guests were expected to clean. The owner offered to cancel our reservation but at this late date we could not have arranged for new accommodations or for our own cleaning service. We had booked the accommodations for August. Surely, the information about the cleaning service was known months in advance since the pandemic started in February/March. The previous guests had cleaned our bathrooms and made the beds, but dishes were left in the dishwasher and on the drying rack, and tea towels and some bathroom towels were left dirty. We brought our own towels thankfully. On our last day, instead of enjoying our few remaining hours at the cottage, we spent four hours cleaning for the next guests, and quite honestly we could not do the thorough job of hired cleaning staff. The owner did reimburse us for the cleaning service, but we did not get back our time! With some TLC, repairs, and a real cleaning service, this place could have been a gem.

Christine communicated well and provided a list of all requirements. The lake and dock is absolutely perfect. A few steps down to the water but the shallow waterfront makes up for it. Awesome spots for kids to be swimming without worry. Lots of space.

Rating: ★★★★★ (4.8/5) We had a great stay! The property was clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured—perfect for a relaxing getaway. It was extremely close to Deerhurst Golf Club, which was super convenient, and also within reasonable driving distance to other great courses like Lake Joseph and Taboo. The hosts were very responsive—when the propane ran out, they had it replaced right away, which we really appreciated. A couple of small things to note: the large stove wasn’t working properly, and the dock on the right side was damaged and partially submerged, so we avoided using it. But those were minor issues compared to everything else being up to par. Would definitely stay again!

David and Mimi’s place was gorgeous and had everything we needed for our stay. Great for families and kids. We enjoyed canoeing and kayaking on the private lake. They were very communicative and responsive, generous and thoughtful. We definitely recommend this place!
