Vacation rentals with a kayak in Greater Toronto Area

Our stay at Addie's cottage was delightful. The place was clean, well-furnished, and equipped with all the necessary utensils. Both hot and cold water pressure was excellent, creating a cozy and warm atmosphere. The bedrooms were tidy and comfortable. Addie proved to be very responsive and helpful, enhancing our experience. However, we encountered a few minor issues: 1) We discovered and eliminated several small cockroaches in the kitchen, particularly around the garbage cabinet. 2) The dining chairs were deteriorating, leaving lots of tiny pieces on our clothing when we used them. 3) The non-functional hot tub was a surprise upon arrival. Although mentioned in the listing, we missed it and so suggest making it more prominent, perhaps in the title, as the photos and description led us to expect a working hot tub. This could also be Airbnb's fault, since I specifically selected the "hot tub" option during my search, clearly indicating a preference for a property with a working hot tub.

Renee's place was great and my group of friends really enjoyed our winter stay. The cottage was modern and cozy, and the views were great from both decks. We had everything we needed, and the kitchen was well equipt with pots & pans of various sizes, cutlery, and dishes which was a welcomed surprise. The amount of beds really came in handy with a larger group, and they were comfy with clean sheets. The location was great for us as we were there to ice fish so didn't really need any entertainment or amenities, but there's really no grocery stores or shops around so make sure you bring everything you need. The driveway just fit 3 SUV's but we needed to manoeuvre the cars to get them to fit and getting them out was a bit of a struggle as the driveway is a little steep and slippery when iced over. Overall, we had a lovely stay and I would definitely stay here again!

Really nice place and enjoyable stay at Troy’s location. It’s a great please to rest and enjoy nature. Loved it!

The house was great and as pictured. The ceilings were low but it was not an issue for my family. There was plenty of wood for the indoor fireplace and the fire pit outside. Unfortunately the weather did not allow us to have a fire outside. The beds were very comfortable. They also put up a Christmas tree for our stay which was above and beyond. We would definitely stay here again.

Brett was an awesome host. Was always super responsive and helpful. His cottage was such a relaxing time for my family and I. The backyard was very private and great for my dog to run around in. We enjoyed fishing, canoeing, and using the fire pit!

Stayed for the Thanksgiving long weekend. Great location with 1.5hr drive from the city. Very clean, cozy and well equipped. The owners are very thoughtful and offered a welcome package of snacks. Beds are comfortable. Beautiful backyard with lots of trees, a fire stove and access to a small lake. Lots of activities to do. We enjoyed the paddle boat and pooling a lot. Overall a five star and great cottage for a short getaway!

Tham was an exceptional host to an exceptional mansion. The place is gorgeous, privately located right at the grand river, huge lot with so many seating areas that each has its own taste. The pool was super clean, kayaks & fishing equipment are nicely stored and ready to be used, life vests and a phenomenal gazebo right at the river bank. It was a great family gathering, Thanks Tham.

We had a great weekend with our group. Cottage is beautiful and well kept. Hosts are accommodating and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and that you enjoy your stay. Would bring my family here every year if only they allowed dogs. Will be booking again!

Beautiful and peaceful lakeside cottage! We had a great stay. Host was extremely responsive and helpful. It was very spacious and had good amenities.

Zebina, was so helpful & proactivt to ensure our visit went smoothly. Our group loved the location & pristine clean home. We'll be recommending this home to family & friends alike. Cheers !

Beautiful place! Can’t wait to return. The fishing is fantastic here! Thank you so much Stephanie you are a fantastic host !!!

What a great location for a cottage! The included boats (canoes & kayaks) are really nice. We went in late October (end of the season) and the neighborhood was nearly deserted. We were often the only people out on the lake. It takes about 20-25 minutes to paddle over to one of the several waterfront restaurants in Port Severn. Trevor's communications were very precise and easy to follow. Only negative comment concerns the well water. It's not just high in minerals, it is so high in minerals that it smells terrible and you really don't want to shower in it.

We had an amazing time. 4 adults and 4 kids and two dogs. Check in was super easy. Host checked in upon arrival to make sure we had everything we needed. Cottage was private and clean. Cottage was completely equipped with everything you need. Location is great. The water is clear and shallow for quite a while so great for kids. Lots to do in the area. We will be back next year! :)

Wonderful stay, 2nd time going back, and will continue visiting. Very warm and welcoming couple. House was very cute with a special letter and treats upon arrival. Ice fishing was also great 👍

South Bay Cottage is truly a perfect and lovely lake getaway. Drive off the main road and into your own private cove outfitted with everything you need for a wonderful stay. Once inside, the view of Lake Stoney can be seen through the large windows from anywhere in the main room. The sunsets and starry skies were so peaceful - and even though locals told us it was unusual - we actual had an amazing view of the Northern Lights! We loved that this cottage included all the linens we needed and lots of areas to get cozy and read a book - including the extra-special gazebo. While the kitchen area is small - it is well equipped with everything we needed. Close to great hikes (Petroglyph Provincial Park, High Falls at Eels Creek, Warsaw Caves, and many others.) Also great to explore the area's great golf courses, Wanderlight Alpaca walks (a must do), Peterborough Pete's hockey, Peterborough theatre, and amazing restaurants in Lakefield (Loon, Cassia, and more). Melissa was a wonderful host!

We stayed with a group of girls for our bookclub and wow, it was amazing! We were lucky enough to have awesome weather, so utilized the outdoor bar, deck and fire pit, and it felt like we were up north. So serene. Awesome location.

Good value. We were looking for something humble and didn't want to break the bank. This is a very nice spot with that special something. We were snowed in our entire stay but the space was well set up for that, with TV's in each room with internet and apps. Really kind host. I would recommend this place and we would book again.

Nrupas cottage was more than what we expected! The location was perfect, the cottage is more like a house, the layout was perfect for gathering friends and family. The deck is huge and plenty of seating. There’s a fire pit with lots of seating. The bunkie is great for more privacy. There’s canoes, kayaks and a paddle boat…the lake is gorgeous. The neighbours are friendly. Comfy beds, We will be back!

Michael and Margaret are great hosts. We head up to their place every winter now for a little cottage country escape. They are super responsive and helpful. Their place is warm, cozy, and has a great hot tub under the stars (and under the snow if you’re lucky). We’ll be back again!

Had the pleasure of staying at Khristel’s cozy chalet this past weekend! What a stunning property. Secluded, quiet and pristine. The chalet itself has everything you can think of to have a wonderful stay. The kitchen is fully stocked and a chefs dream space to work out of. The bathrooms and bedrooms were all so nicely decorated and a lean as a whistle. You can tell that a lot of love has gone into curating the special warm and inviting ambiance of this place. We cooked great meals, watched a ton of movies, had a couple bonfires and went snowshoeing! We didn’t get to fully utilize the game room but we got so excited to see billiards, ping pong, darts, fooseball and large jenga! Overall an amazing peaceful and fun getaway!! Would highly recommend!!!

Definitely will be booking again. Very relaxing!

we had a great time at Kelly's cottage on the Sandy lake. the interiors were very aesthetic and pleasing, and everything was super new and well maintained. the cottage was very well equipped with anything that one may need for a comfortable stay whether its the kitchen or bath amenities. the fireplace was really pretty and the outdoor firepit was also very nice. we went during peak winter time and the location was great in terms of snow clearing facilities as well. we loved spending time at Kelly's place and would love to be back again in the summer to enjoy more of the outdoors and the lake where the property is located.

Really enjoyed it definitely coming back

thank you Richard for the wonderful vacation!! the place was exactly as described and Richard gave us great direction since Google maps doesn't do the best job. the property was huge, plenty of amenities. the peddle boat was missing plugs so we grabbed some from in town and left them for the next guest.
