Tranquil cottage in lovely surroundings
Beautiful, relaxing location with excellent views of the frozen lake and forest. Large and well-equipped lake house. Easy access to the water. Very secluded and private lot, yet only 10 minutes from Huntsville. Photos don’t do it justice.

March Break Retreat
The perfect getaway! Everything about our stay was great! The cottage was spotless, more than enough space, and each room had it’s own theme with a warm and cozy vibe! We enjoyed skating on the lake, long walks, and just sitting out on the frozen lake enjoying the quiet and sunshine! Our host was very prompt, helpful and very accommodating. Would love to return again!

Great Getaway
This was an amazing cottage, the facilities were clean and fully stocked. The lake and property were beautiful and it is located close to both Arrowhead provincial park and Algonquin provincial park. Steve was a great host and communicated effectively, the cottage was also very intentionally outfitted. I would recommend it to anyone booking and will be sure to return!

Quaint cottage in a great location
Rustic cottage in a perfect location. 15 minute drive to Huntsville and about 25 minutes to Algonquin Park. Has everything you need including lots of firewood, a well equipped kitchen, and a BBQ. Could use a dishwasher and a TV station or two would be nice for the rainy days. View of the lake is great and it was very quiet. Stairs could be challenging for some people. Steve was quick to respond to questions which was an added bonus. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a real cottage experience close to amenities and the park.

Spacious stay on a lake near huntsville
Homey and spacious house on a beautiful lake. Short drive from huntsville and arrowhead provincial park. Well stocked kitchen for groups. Gorgeous views from inside and out and peaceful hangouts on the dock, deck or screened in second floor patio.

Peace and Quiet
My spouse and I stayed at the cottage and found it very spacious. The bed was very comfortable and having access to the lake (canoe) was delightful. We encountered two loons on the lake who entertained us with their calls. This cottage would make a wonderful place for a larger group or family with children. It was clean, and had everything necessary (bring your own sheets and towels) and fast WiFi.

Just what we needed!
We loved the property! It was great for our group of 5 friends looking to relax together by the lake and still be close to the amenities of Huntsville. Lovely sandy waterfront and nice long dock with views of the sunset! We were comfortable in the cottage and also enjoyed the fire pit and walking trail along the water. Extra thanks to Steve for filling the bird feeder so we could be washing the dishes with a Bluejay right in front of us.

August 2024 Stay
This was our 3rd stay at this property. Clean and well equipped. 2 paddle boards and a canoe available for guest use. Great location in close proximity to Huntsville/Dwight/Dorset/Algonquin Park. Good dock (we have a 19' bowrider). Boat launch at TallyHo is good and a short 10 min drive away. Boating is great with access to Fairy, Mary & Vernon. Lots of firewood provided. Steve is a great host quick to respond to any questions. No complaints! We will be back again!

Paradise Found
We've rented several vacation properties on Peninsula Lake over the years. We love the 4-chain lake and its proximity to Huntsville and Algonquin Park, and were looking to relax on a dock and spend time Seadooing and roasting marshmallows. The Moffat's property did not disappoint! Warm and welcoming, the cottage is truly a cottage (you can almost hear the whispers of past cottagers... or is that the wind in the trees?). Well-appointed and clean, with plenty of sleeping accommodation and touches of whimsy all over the place, the cottage and its grounds were fun to explore. We loved the screened-in porch... such a peaceful spot to spend an evening! All in all, a wonderful week. We'll be back! Thanks to the Moffats for hosting!

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.
