Cottage vacation rentals in Lake Ontario

My 13 and 14 year old boys and I stayed at Bozena's and we had the absolute best time. Everything, including the yard, was pristine and I could tell there was great care in making sure everything was perfect for us. Check in was simple and we settled right in. We had so much fun in the yard - my boys fished, we brought lacrosse sticks and a frisbee and spent our evenings really enjoying ourselves. We love cooking and found plenty of dishes and pots and pans to use in the kitchen. Bozena had many nice areas inside her home to enjoy the beautiful view. She was very communicative and kind. In addition, I left my binoculars at her place and asked if anyone had found them. She got back to me immediately and is sending them back to me. She went above and beyond to do so! We would love to visit again!

My sister and I had a great time at Ryan’s Airbnb. The place was beautiful. Nice sized livingroom - comfortable couch. The kitchen was well equipped with everything to cook with - coffee provided. Loved sitting out on the deck and watching the ducks!! Miranda brought over a bouquet of beautiful tulips - how did she know I love tulips! All in all a special place with special memories. Ryan went well beyond expectations to make our sister time priceless!! Thank you Ryan and Miranda!!

We had a great time at the cottage. The place is clean and beautiful. The backyard was a little smaller than i expected, but still beautiful and peaceful. We would definitely recommend.

Cottage was beautiful and exactly as described. Laura was helpful and flexible with move-in and move out, which was wonderful. Clean and comfortable, it's perfect for the Toronto getaway. A lot of great family photos against that pristine white background. I recommend you take some pictures😎

Incredible location right on the lake, lovely little house in a very cute neighbourhood. Great place to walk the dogs, nice friendly neighbours. The house was exactly as pictured, clean and very comfortable. I will stay here again.

The Shell Cottage was a great place to spend our vacation. It’s close enough to the falls, but with enough distance to avoid the craziness. The view is spectacular and we got a front row seat to the aurora borealis show from 10/10/24. The house is equipped with everything you will need, and the linens and towels were clean and smelled good. The hosts are great too, very responsive and personable. I would rent this place again in the future without hesitation. We created the sweetest memories and for that we are very thankful.

We had a fantastic last-minute family getaway here. Roxana was an amazing host - very friendly and had extremely quick responses with the few questions we had for her before and during our stay. The cottage was immaculately clean, had pretty much everything you would need, and was very cosy and comfortable. The decor was super adorable with lots of Canadian details that were absolutely loved by our Australian family members who were visiting with us. Lots of thoughtful details inside the cottage - we were especially pleasantly surprised to find some birthday decor available for use as we were celebrating a birthday during our stay! The outdoor space is stunning and so peaceful (amazing views from both indoors and outdoors). We enjoyed spending lots of time outside the cottage taking in the beautiful scenery as well as exploring the lake by the kayaks and canoe provided. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful space. We would love to return in the future :)

We had the best summer before school starts , thanks to Henry’s cottage! There lots to do, campfire, kayak, boating etc. We love the jetty by the lake and we have coffee there every morning!!! The backyard is so spacious it has the playground that kids have plenty of stuff to do! The place is very quiet at night! We also love the bedrooms and it has no problems accomodating our family plus two more. We have a good experience here and Henry is very responsive on our concerns and questions! We will definitely come back !! Thanks!!!

My friends and I love getting together for a getaway at Caitlin's cozy blue beach house!! . The house is so cozy and homelike. The hot tub is great. Will always rebook this place for a getaway!!

We had a great 5 night stay and would love to return. The kitchen was well equipped to cook anything you want and the bed in the main bedroom was extremely comfortable. We loved sitting outside and watching the waves in the morning with a coffee or a beer in the afternoon. Everything was so quiet and peaceful. Our dog loved it too!

This was our third time staying with Sondra. Very cozy, has everything you need for a little getaway. Love the hot tub, and the sound of the creek is just so peaceful. Thanks again for another memorable trip.

Daniel gave a thorough intro message of specifics the day of on top of what was already so clearly laid out. The property was beautiful with access to so many activity options. House is clean and spacious. We spent a lot of time on the dock which had a great selection of furniture and sun/shade options. The beach is a close walk. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend and will likely be back to enjoy the space again!

Really cool spot, enjoyed the walk to the lake and the hot tub. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay there again

Kevin was super welcoming and responsive host! recommend his place to anyone who wants to have good time :)

This place definitely has character. Lots of small things that make you feel right at home. Very cozy and private, and lots of light. Full kitchen and a fireplace are fantastic

Beautiful home! Great amenities! Great host! Would love to come in summer!

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

This cottage was the right fit for my family, nice resting place for us to sleep and enjoy our fishing trip. Although the bathroom was on the smaller side, we found everything very nice and clean, and the owner responded immediately to a small issue and fixed the problem right away. All together, very satisfied!!

Thank you so much for the perfect getaway stay! Everything was as described and more. Perfect sleeps were had, kitchen was well equipped for all the late night creations, comfy reading spots throughout the home. Comfort levels were absolutely met! We enjoyed it immensely and can't wait to stay again soon.

Jeff’s cottage was welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared. He reached out a few days before our arrival to offer a call, during which he provided detailed information about check-in procedures, parking, local restaurant recommendations, and how to use the home’s amenities. His proactive communication made our trip seamless. The cottage itself was small but very cozy (everything we were looking for), with a backyard that features a BBQ grill, a fire pit, and ambient string lights that create a comfortable evening atmosphere. The town is equally delightful, offering a variety of adorable restaurants and places to explore. As a thoughtful touch, Jeff left us a small welcome gift, making us feel truly appreciated. His hospitality made our stay memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the cottage and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

We enjoyed our stay. More beautiful than the pictures. Caroline was very responsive. She offered us early check-in and accepted to check out at 11am instead of 10am. can't wait to go back in summer.

This was our first experience with staying at an Airbnb and it far exceeded our expectations! The cottage was lovely and had everything you could ever need. The screened porch was a great addition to relax in out of the weather. Outside was spectacular with the river and peaceful surroundings. Great scenic area to take your dog for a walk without leaving the property. Elsie was friendly and very helpful. We rebooked another stay while there because we didn’t want to leave.

Brian and Melissa’s place is lovely. Very clean. Furniture and beds extremely comfortable and great location across from the Lake and about 5-7 miles from the cute town of Skaneatles. We were there on a rainy night but did take the short walk across the street to the dock which was beautiful. It’s a nice place even on a cold rainy night with the electric fireplace and comfortable couches! I’m sure it would be a great summer spot too!

Highly recommend this cottage! Beautiful views right across the street from the lake. Comfortable beds, 1.5 baths, it was perfect for a girls weekend getaway with 5 girls. (2 shared a room, one slept on a futon in the living room) but plenty of space and comfortable! The first night our heat wasn’t working, I messaged Catherine and she came over right away. She was helpful and got the heat working and super prompt. Definitely want to go back!!!
