Brilliant stay in stunning location and great host!

Great cottage on a fantastic lake. We know the area well and picked this property because we love the clear/clean water and beautiful landscapes in that area. It’s the true haliburton experience for sure. Cottage was exactly what you want- clean and the layout was nice in that everone could relax without being on top of each other. The cottage has all the water toys you could want. We mostly used the paddle boards (there’s a great island you can paddle to) and kayaks. Beautiful dock, seating areas as well and the hot tub overlooking the lake was great. Highly recommend!

We had the most wonderful stay at Kennisis Lake! The location was beautiful and the cottage was so clean and comfortable for our family of 6. The property was very child-friendly and included everything we needed. The hosts were very responsive and helpful, and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The lake itself was stunning and quiet, and the water was beautiful for swimming and kayaking. We can’t wait to return next year!
