Quiet and Cozy
This was our second time staying at this property, and we enjoyed ourselves as much this time as the last. The cabin is warm and inviting and just the perfect location to relax and unwind. This property is for anyone who wants to really experience what it is like staying in an authentic cottage in rural Ontario. You would not believe that you are a mere minutes away from the town of Huntsville. Perfect place to unplug and separate yourselves from the rat race. It truly is a blessing that the owners have opened this special place to everyone.

A wonderful stay!
Our family of 4 had a beautiful stay at Steve's cottage. Steve's directions and communication were clear and timely. The cottage layout is ideal for hanging around, eating in the comfortable dining area and playing boardgames by the wood fireplace, which is what we were looking forward to for our stay. From the main room there are views in 3 directions. I can imagine it is beautiful here in all seasons! Because of the additional bedrooms and second bathroom, I think it would be very comfortable for more than 4 people as well. Our stay was everything we hoped for and I would not hesitate to recommend!

Winter wonderland
My partner and dog and I really enjoyed our stay in Steve's cottage. Great location on Peninsula Lake, easy access to Arrowhead and Algonquin parks and to Huntsville. The cottage is equipped with 5 beds (3 queens, 2 singles) and an upstairs living room as well as downstairs rec room (where the two single beds are). Well appointed kitchen and 2 3 piece bathrooms. Great value for our winter stay!! Some things that would have been good to know prior to booking (but would not have changed our minds to stay): 1. As a cottage without laundry facilities, you must bring your own linens and towels. It doesn't say this explicitly, but given that towels are not included in the amenities, I luckily figured it out before we left. Again, absolutely makes sense, but I always appreciate more info than less. 2. Again, as a cottage, you must take your waste (garbage and recycling) to the dump before departing fully. The dump run has not been something I've encountered before while renting on this or a similar site, but a recollection from my childhood at a family cottage, and makes a great deal of sense. 3. The manual mentions the request to clean before leaving, and eludes to a full clean (washing floors, etc). Gave me a shock, but after clarification with the host is NOT required. He requested to leave it as it was found int the winter, which is absolutely reasonable, and we gave a quick vacuum and wipe of the surfaces to ensure it's ready for the next visitors.

Idlehour stay
Quaint cozy cottage with a real family feel. Nice cottage on a scenic lake. Great location close to Huntsville and also close to Algonquin Park. We stayed 3 nights during February and were really happy with the choice we made. Felt right at home and would definitely go back at some point in the future. Getting all the details from Steve was really easy and he responed to my questions within an hour of posting. Great experience!! Randy
