Spring at the Lake

We spent four nights out here in April. Sadly the weather didn’t cooperate for us so most of the time we were inside. This location is excellent. We enjoyed the action at the bird feeders. The cabin had everything you need and then some. Beautiful and peaceful it was just what we were looking for. There is an excellent fire pit and lots of wood. Can’t wait to return.

Great stay!

We were a group of adult friends and one baby, away for a winter weekend reunion. We had a wonderful stay! Cozy, great kitchen to cook in, comfortable beds. We had a couple nice walks along the frozen lake. The host was friendly and responsive.

Stunning View Verified

Our stay was just lovely and the views were indeed amazing! We just loved that you could see nature from every window—trees, water, & wildlife—even if the weather was inclement. The lake and property was so quiet that you could hear the fluttering of chickadee wings as they swooped in for a bite at the feeders. The dogs loved watching “nature TV” (birds, squirrels, & chipmunks at the bird feeders outside). It was just the retreat that we needed and we definitely hope to return!

A great place to re-connect with old friends.

Four friends of 46 years met for an annual reunion at this wonderful retreat. The accommodations were terrific, the view was wonderful, the air was clean and clear, and hiking in nearby Frontenac Park was great. We really appreciated the open and friendly communications with the hosts.

Cottage on the HILL

Overall property is great. If you have trouble with climbing/walking up hills, this is not the property for you. Views are fantastic, great dock for boating or swimming. Plenty of room both inside and out. Great little getaway.

A Nice Escape

We stayed for a nice family weekend quietly celebrating a birthday. There was more than enough room for the 6 adults and 4 month old. The views were enjoyed by all. There were detailed directions about house requirements and information about the surrounding area provided. The rooms were spacious and clean. Would definitely be interested in staying again in the warmer weather to enjoy the lake access.

Lovely property

This is a lovely property. There's a bit of a hike down to the water, but the water is very warm, and the dock is very nice. When we were there (late July) it was very warm in the house, and the air conditioner is just a small unit. It takes the edge off, but it got a bit uncomfortable. Beds are great (high quality mattresses), and the kitchen is well-stocked. The fire pit area is really great, and the view is stunning.

Stay at Perth Road for Eclipse 2024

We had a lovely stay, the property is beautiful. Really enjoyed the view of the lake. It was the perfect place to see the eclipse. Also really enjoyed kayaking in the lake and exploring little islands (2 kayaks were at the property), and the campfire also overlooking the lake. It was very comfortable for our party of 5. Everyone had their own private room (3 bedrooms in house). There was another room separate from the house that we didn't use, but would have been nice too. Kitchen was fully stocked and convenient for cooking, and nice lounging areas in the house. House is in a nice quiet area, ~15 min from nearest grocery and ~35 min from downtown Kingston. Hosts were very communicative and friendly! Definitely recommend!

Perfect place for our plans

We rented this cottage because we were looking for a place that could house us all for a reasonable cost. The location wasn’t ideal but the price was closer to our budget to we went for it. It was a lovely place for 4 adults and a 6 year old. The place was lovely and we were all quite comfortable. My stepson kept us warm using the wood stove and everyone had their own space. Anything we needed was available so we didn’t have to worry about anything besides food. The cabin was a Little on the rustic side as expected but the locations and the views were spectacular. The purpose of our trip from Newfoundland was to support a sick mother/grandmother/ great-grandmother so we didn’t get to spend as much time at the cabin as we would have hoped. But having this place to come back to at the end of a long day with its silence and beauty was a huge bonus. Huge thank you to Luiza for her flexibility and willingness to accommodate our needs as we were unsure how long we would need to stay. Much appreciated, thank you!

Cliffside views

Although we had a mixed bag of weather, the cottage had beautiful views and there was nothing missing as far as amenities for our family. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was excellent, towels etc. provided. The kitchen had everything we needed. It felt more like staying at a family cottage than at a rental cottage with all that was provided and made available for us. We used the public boat launch and kept our boat at the dock. Water was more weedy than we are used to but we could use it to cool off and swim. Communications with Luiza were quick and detailed. All in all a great week. Thank you!

Nice winter getaway

We rented the cottage in January as a base for winter outdoor activities.The cottage space is large and the kitchen is well equipped. The beds were comfortable. The cottage is definitely more worn and dated than the photos would indicate, with the exception of the bathroom. The well water is drinkable but we found it had a high amount of sediment in it.The coffeemaker and kettle desperately need to be descaled.The communication with the host was excellent. Luiza responded promptly to any questions.There is quite a significant climb and distance up and down from the cottage to the lake. We enjoyed cross country skiing on the lake and even skated around the lake when there was a small amount of snow on it. It's an interesting lake to explore with many islands and bays. Warning: If you arrive in winter and are coming from the north (and not on the 401 as the host's directions indicate) DO NOT take Little Long Lake Rd. It is not maintained in winter, has some hills where you cannot see who is coming on the very narrow road, and there is not really room to pass anyone coming the other way. There were also a ton of potholes, so I wouldn't take it during warm weather either. We had planned to visit Frontenac Provincial Park but because we didn't want to take that road, it would have taken a very long time to get there so we did not. We enjoyed walking along the Cataraqui Trail (parked at Perth Rd) and also visited the Little Catarqui Creek Conservation Area.

A Fabulous Spot

This is the second time that my family has stayed at this lovely cliffside cottage. The host is warm and welcoming. They respond immediately to messages. The house is clean and well appointed. The kitchen is large and bright. The bedrooms are cozy. The setting is stunning with views up and down the lake from the front windows. You can sit for hours and watch the light on the lake change or count the birds at the various bird feeders. We took full advantage of the hiking trail that winds its’ way through the area. We rent a cottage every Thanksgiving and it unanimous that this was our favourite. Thank you!!

Beautiful location

Beautiful, comfortable home had everything we needed. Great views of very pretty lake. Easy communication with owners. We enjoyed using the two kayaks. Loved the firepit. Dog loved the place. If you have mobility issues the hill down to the water might be challenging. There isn't a sandy beach but we loved sitting on the Muskoka chairs on the nice big dock.
