Family-friendly vacation rentals in Peterborough

there are so many amenities here! all the things you didn't think to pack are already there because Sasha thought of it for you! amazing space great hosts I loved it

Jeremy's home in the Kawartha's was absolutely perfect for our 2 families and young children. From the moment we arrived we felt so at home! The property is stunning, nestled amongst the trees, though wide open and bright- there is generous deck space, a lawn for kids to run around on (as well as a zip line, swing and hammocks!!) and a sweet meandering path that leads to a quiet lake and dock. The home itself has a comfortable, spacious and relaxed vibe. It's mid century, art filled and modern. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need for creative cooking, and the amenities in general are generous- from board games to water sports, sauna and hot tub. While there we had rainy days and colder days, but there was always so much to do and explore that every day was rich. This home would also be a perfect winter getaway.. maybe one day!

What a great spot The Rogers Retreat is! Such cozy spaces inside for family hangouts, and a beautiful view of the lake. We appreciated all the amenities and comfy furniture. It was the perfect backdrop to our cousins' reunion. Chris was a welcoming host - very accessible and great communication. Thanks for everything!

The cottage has a spectacular view of the lake. It is very spacious and up to date. The kitchen was well supplied with utensils, dinnerware, pots/pans, an air fryer and rice cooker. The dock area is in great condition, so it is a terrific place to relax in the sun, swim and fish. The stairs from the cottage to the dock has many steps, so my 84 year-old mother-in-law with bad osteoarthritis of the knees could not get down to the lake to go tubing. She was very happy to stay in the cottage and enjoy the view. The is only a short drive to Buckhorn with a Foodland and a Home Hardware to pick the items that you packed but left at home. Alex and Sophie were quick to answer any questions. Overall a really enjoyable couple of weeks.

Had a wonderful stay and was able to relax and rejuvenate for a few days. Everything has been thought of and included for a comfortable stay. Really appreciated the jacuzzi tub and sauna. Hope to return in the near future!

Cori has done an amazing job decorating the cottage - it was a very well-kept and well-stocked space. The listing was very accurate and the check-in experience was very smooth. There was lots to do in the area and Cori had also prepared a binder with information detailing activities and attractions nearby. She was also readily available for any questions that we may have had. Thank you for having us as your guests - we're looking forward to coming again in the future!

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property, has everything you need. We stayed the week of valentines and couldn’t have asked for more. I could only imagine how perfect it would be in the summer with the water sports and many other amenities this property offers. Erika and Adam were kind and responsive and helped us with all our needs!! Definitely would go again.

We had a fantastic stay! Beautiful property& great hosts✨ we will for sure be back!

my stay at Mrinals place was amazing! it looks exactly like the photos and was so clean. my family stayed here before moving out of the country and it was literally stocked with anything you’d need! anything we needed in the kitchen they had as well as laundry detergent and cleaning supplies. there was so many extra towels, sheets, and bedding. the check in was super easy and everything was exactly like the photos. The driveway has good space as well, me and my family were able to fit 2 SUV’s. Mrinal was an amazing host and very responsive and kind. I highly recommend!

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

Beautiful cottage with a spectacular view of the lake! Very quiet and peaceful for rest and relaxation. The fireplace made the cottage even more cozy on some very cold winter days during our stay. The bed was very comfortable and the entire cottage was well set up for a relaxing atmosphere. Everything was easy to find and anything you could possibly need was there. We loved that amenities like grocery stores and restaurants were close by and easily accessible.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The house was lovely, well-maintained, and had all the amenities we needed. The location was perfect, offering both tranquility and convenience. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and are already planning to book it again for next year!”

Very clean and cozy! Amazing countryside scenery, magical sunset and sunrise. Also the host was very nice and helpful. We also had so much fun with their farm animals. Kids loved it. Thanks for everything!

Thank you for all that you did for us, considering our circumstances. We truly enjoyed your home and your hospitality.

My husband and I, along with our two adventurous pups, absolutely loved our cozy cottage escape in the Kawarthas! This place had everything we needed for a peaceful and relaxing retreat. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of privacy, even in a small neighborhood—those tall bushes really made it feel like our own little hideaway. Our dogs were in heaven, running around the beautifully manicured backyard with plenty of space to explore. Inside, the cottage was just as charming, with adorable, cozy bedrooms and a kitchen stocked with everything we needed, whether we were grilling outside or whipping up a delicious meal indoors. The kitchen appliances were spotless and felt brand new. And the view from the living room? Simply stunning! We spent countless hours just soaking in the beautiful lakeside scenery right from the comfort of the couch. Although we didn’t get as much fishing in as we’d hoped, we’re already planning our next trip back! Big thanks to Mel & Stu!

Natalia and Evgeney were great hosts. They were both very responsive, friendly, and accommodating. Check-in was flexible and easy thanks to Evgeney, who did a great job at setting us up with our cabin. The cabin itself was exactly as advertised. We found it to be very clean. The view of Rice Lake from our cabin was great, and the area is really peaceful and quiet. Overall, we had a great time here! It was a perfect relaxing weekend.

Margaret seemed very nice, she left croissants in the kitchen for us to have in the morning. Overall a very cozy spot to stay and we had no issues. One thing I noticed is that there's an adjoining door that connects from her side of the building to ours and I'm not sure if it locks, maybe it does but I didn't see a lock option on my side. Anyway it still felt private and we definitely got what we paid for.

Gary & Mina were excellent hosts. They greeted us for check in and where very accommodating. Any questions we had were quickly answered via the AirBNB app. The house was full of character and had lots of things to do indoors and outdoors. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies, utensils and kitchen wares. There was a washer/dryer centrally located which was great for towels and the Weber BBQ was in top notch condition. Water toys well maintained (2 kayaks, 1 paddle board, 1 canoe and 1 paddle boat). Pool and hot tub worked great, which was a must for our cottage getaway.

We had an incredible stay at County Creek House in Prince Edward County! The spacious rooms and thoughtful design made us feel right at home. The house was stocked with everything we needed, from kitchen spices to pool floaties, board games, and fire starters. The organic garden was a highlight, providing us with fresh heirloom tomatoes daily. The location is perfect—close to beaches, wineries, and restaurants, yet tucked away just off the main road, offering privacy and tranquility. We loved exploring local wineries and restaurants, but relaxing by the pool with family was just as memorable. Heather and James were outstanding hosts, responding to every inquiry within minutes and making our stay completely stress-free. County Creek House is the ideal family-friendly retreat, combining convenience with a sense of escape. We can't wait to come back!

The cabin is really nice, not too close to the other cabins near by. Dishes and silverware were provided which was nice, and a mini fridge as well. We brought our own portable stove as there is no oven/stove at the cottage, and everything worked out perfectly. We stayed in cottage #3 which seemed closest to the beach area and access to kayaks, canoes, paddles, etc. Front desk was very nice and supportive when we asked to have the beach shed unlocked for us to go canoeing. Golfing is also a really fun thing to do on site! We rented clubs and golf carts and had a great time. No complaints! Nice and quiet area to go with friends, family, or as a couple.

wonderful hosts who will help to solve any question in a short time, beautiful and clean accommodation that corresponds to the photo, we will be happy to return here again

We had a great time Gord’s place!The cabin is spacious, cozy, and functional with a fully equipped kitchen and two full bathrooms. Great location with easy access to the pool and a beautiful view of the lake where you can enjoy stunning sunsets right from the deck. The grounds are meticulously maintained with beautiful flowerbeds and ample lakeshore space, very quiet,creating a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Gord and his family are exceptional hosts—friendly, respectful, accommodating, and quick to respond to any questions we had. Gord even offered a flexible check-in time and provided two heaters for a couple of chilly nights. His local recommendations for nearby attractions were also greatly appreciated. Additionally, their thoughtful gesture of providing a play kitchen structure with toys made our toddler incredibly happy. We highly recommend Gord’s place to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. Thank you for a memorable stay—we look forward to returning!

Our family of 6 stayed at this wonderful family home for a week. My in laws are in their 70s and our two boys are ages 5 and 8. This home was the perfect layout for all of us. We all had our own space and the boys really enjoyed hanging out in the backyard “gazebo.” Upon arrival, we immediately felt right at home. This place has a beautiful, peaceful feel to it. Everything was clean and well laid out and the hosts have not missed a thing for their guests. Their guidebook was very thorough and helpful to those new to the area of Toronto/Scarborough. We did not have a car but found it very easy (and quick) to get around via Ubers. We were downtown for a blue jays game (kids Jay sundays are great!!) and a concert. We also spent one afternoon at the hockey hall of fame and the St. Lawrence market. A wonderful oasis to come “home” to at the end of a day in the city. The neighbourhood is so lovely just like this home. Thank you Liz and Derek for an amazing holiday!
