We took our 3 daughters and their partners there for 5 days and had an amazing time. The cottage was more then enough space for the 8 of us and had everything we needed. Shane was an excellent host and we would definitely consider returning for another visit.

We couldn’t have asked for a better spot for our annual family vacation. Lake Scugog Waterfront Cottage definitely exceeded our expectations. The cottage was beautiful, spacious, clean, comfortable and really well equipped. Communication with the hosts was great and they have made every effort to make you feel at home. We were sad to leave and are looking forward to returning to this little bit of paradise.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
We had an amazing time! The home is beautifully designed, and the owner has truly thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and memorable. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the utensils, plates, and tools you’d need to prepare great meals. And the host even left bottled water for guests, which was a thoughtful touch.There were plenty of towels, including cabana towels, and the hot tub was the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day.The hosts were super responsive and helpful throughout our stay. They were always available whenever we had questions, which made everything easy and stress-free.From the Sonos speakers throughout the house to the comfy, huge couches and TVs on every floor, every detail added to the experience. The ping pong table and games definitely brought out our competitive (and fun!) side.Highly recommend!

Beautiful, modern and well appointed home with plenty of space for everyone, inside and out. The hosts were exceptional and very quick to respond to a few minor issues that we had. Would love to rebook in the future.
