Cottage holiday rentals in Dysart and Others

We really enjoyed our stay at Dock Cottage. It was modern elegance mixed with warm vintage touches. It had everything we needed to make our stay really comfortable and we loved the dock, hot tub and kayaking on the lake. It was quiet and peaceful and felt far away from everything yet we were an easy walk from Miss Nelle’s coffee shop and ice cream stand where we went each morning for a coffee (opens at 7am), Muskoka Brewing Company for a beer and a few other Baysville shops. The communication and instructions were really helpful and we received prompt replies if we had a question so it felt like we were really taken care of. We will definitely be back and recommend it to friends.

The cottage was great! Perfect for a weekend out of the city, our group and I loved the entire experience. Janice was very helpful and even left a very sweet personal touch for our stay. Would definitely stay again.

Loved the cottage very clean, there was cleaning supplies and small things that they keep stocked with was very nice to be able to grab from when we ran out instead of going to town. The hot tub was great very clean, and the screened in porch out front was a great touch aswell.

Wonderful place to stay! very clean and exactly as depicted in description and photos! Tip: if you come in the spring, bring bug repellent!

My friends and I had an incredible stay at this Airbnb. We were grateful to the hosts for providing us with so much to do, from the pool table to the hot tub, kayaks, fire pit and a deck with a bbq. One of the most memorable moments for me was watching the views from the dock at sunrise and sunset, it’s beautiful and I encourage anyone reading this to take the time to do the same. Very convenient location as well, 15 minute drive away from the local grocery store and anything else you need in town. I want to thank the host for a great stay and for allowing us to use your family cottage. If we’re in the area again we will definitely return!

I have very limited words to express how amazing our stay was. Peter is an exceptional host—very professional and thoughtful. He made sure everything we needed was available and perfectly arranged. This was one of the most memorable trips for our family. We had kids from three different age groups—1-year-old, under 5, and a teenager—and each one of them had something fun to do at the cottage. Thank you again, Peter, for such a wonderful experience!

We loved our stay at the Hidden Haven cabin 💗 Kate was so quick to respond to any questions and had provided an extensive and detailed welcome package which was great! The hot tub was key and the overall feel was magical! We definitely recommend and will absolutely be back.

I had a friend's reunion at this beautiful place, and we had an amazing time! The view of the falls was breathtaking, and the hot tub was top-notch. I would definitely book this place again and highly recommend it to others.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cottage! Claudia’s home is warm, welcoming, and had everything we needed — plus thoughtful extras for us, which we really appreciated. The space was clean, spacious, and cozy, with plenty of room to relax. Being pet-friendly was a huge bonus for us (there is an additional pet cleaning fee, which is good to know ahead of time), and it was clear that Claudia had gone out of her way to make pets feel at home too. We loved spending time on the water using the kayaks and canoe, and enjoyed cozying up by the fire both nights of our stay. The neighbors were also very friendly, which added to the relaxed atmosphere. We’d absolutely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable getaway — especially if you're traveling with a dog!

Bongopix is an incredibly unique and wonderful place to stay. The cabin was peaceful, comfortable, and was so full of character. When the weather was good we went for incredible hikes, when the weather was bad we watched videos and played snes, it was absolutely perfect. The bar served delicious food, drink, and we got to hear some great live music. As hosts, Bongo and Andrea were friendly, helpful, and we felt incredibly welcome. Such a great find in the area and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique place to stay in the area.

We had a great stay at Jonathan’s place! Everything was just as described, Jonathan was quick to respond all of our questions. The kitchen amenities were top notch, it had everything we needed to prepare all of our meals. We also really enjoyed the new bbq grill. The location was easy to find. The house has an amazing view of the lake, which is great for swimming and kayaking. I’d definitely recommend Jonathan’s place!

This was a lovely spot. As recommended, we had our AWD vehicles to get into the unpaved roads. (Future guests, please do not think this is optional.) the house is very new and clean. The bathroom and kitchen were very clean. I particularly enjoyed drinking my morning coffee looking out the big glass doors. My father happily sat outside where the bugs didn't seem to bother him. (In all fairness, I'm a wimp in that department, which is a shame because the porch was lovely.) I was grateful to have a spot where I could bring my dog. (F.y.i. dog owners : the floor is slippery. This isn't a criticism, just something to be aware of). I received quick responses to my questions leading up to our visit and upon arrival. I also appreciated the coffee and beer they left us. Cheers!

George's listing was perfect for a getaway from the city. My husband wanted to look for a place last minute and thankfully the listing popped up and they were able to accept us last min. It was perfeeectt for us. Exactly what we wanted. Somewhere peaceful, somewhere cozy, somewhere quiet and secluded so we can tan with as little tan lines as possible ;) and a calm lake for my dog to swim in. This was probably one of the most organized stays we have been in. I loved that the vacuum was accessible, the cleaning supplies were organized and easy to find. I would 1000% return and am planning to return.

We had a wonderful stay at Ke/Shannon’s place—it was peaceful, clean, and perfect for our group of five. The home included all the listed amenities, and we appreciated the thoughtful touch of snacks left for us on arrival. Shannon was incredibly responsive, answering our questions almost immediately. The view of the lake is beautiful, and the private dock was a great spot to relax outdoors. While the lake is quite weedy for swimming or fishing, the provided kayaks are a nice option to explore the water. Would definitely recommend!

This cottage was amazing. The place was entirely as described and the prior reviews were spot on. Roxana was very helpful, gave tons of recommendations and was very kind and responsive. Kitchen was well stocked, the beds were super comfortable, the AC was perfect and I literally can’t think of a single critique. A really nice touch with the s’mores station that my kid basically ate all of. We will definitely be back!!

We booked this cottage on a whim with virtually no notice to the owner who was flexible with our check-in making it worth our 1 night stay. The cottage is so spacious with lots of room to lounge, eat and sleep. It was clean and comfortable. The waterfront is the real MVP here - pristine water, pure sand, great doc and decks.

We had an unforgettable 2 night stay at the hideaway! Super cozy and homey cottage with beautiful views in a very serene and peaceful area. A true winter wonderland. The space was very rustic and charming. Bedrooms were comfortable and spacious. Kitchen had everything needed for cooking meals and the dining area very well laid out next to it. The living room was extremely cozy and relaxing to hang out in, especially with a lit fire. Getting there was easy, parking was easy, checking in and out, a breeze. Both Sarah and Matt were very responsive, kind and accessible hosts. We’d definitely book with the again and stay at their cottage!

I visited the A-frame with three of my girlfriends and it was the perfect burnout escape. One of my friends was working remotely while we were there and, when we briefly lost Internet, Amanda was so responsive and helpful. My friends really wanted me to add here how much they appreciated the welcome wine that was left for us. Everything was absolutely perfect, we don't have a single suggestion. My girlfriends and I returned to our busy lives totally refreshed. We would recommend this place (and any other place that Amanda manages because she was just lovely) 1000% and we will be returning!

We had a wonderful countryside stay at this cozy, clean, and comfortable cabin in the woods. The setting was peaceful and truly felt like a getaway into nature. The host was great—friendly and responsive, making our experience even better. It was a very interesting and enjoyable stay, and we would definitely love to come back again!

Thank you to Jennifer for letting our group of 5 girls stay at her cottage, place was very spacious, very beautiful, clean & organized Hope to one day in the future book again. Was super relaxing & very much needed!

We had an amazing time at the Cottage and it is on a prime location right next to the water . You can fish off the dock and we cooked marshmallows over a pit fire . We had meals over looking the lake . The only thing that needed to more specific were the details to the garbage disposal. You need to separate the garbage with compost .recycle and garbage if you are disposing of them . Other than that , we had a fantastic time !!

Very cozy and quite cottage in Haliburton district. Easy to get anywhere. Bianka has prepared everything before we arrive. Definitely will visit next time.

My friends and I had the most amazing time at Lisa’s cottage! The cottage was even more beautiful than the photos!! Well shocked kitchen, including spices and other pantry items. Very spacey cottage with lots of places to relax. Very comfy beds. We really loved spending time at the private beach and having a campfire. Great location, with a well stocked local marina a 10 minute walk away, and Haliburton close by as well. Everything was exactly as described and we cannot wait to come back!

We had a fantastic time at this wonderful lake house. Nadia’s home is just like the pictures - beautiful and inviting. It has all the comforts of home and is well maintained. The kitchen was stocked with ample quality cookware to prepare any meal. There are multiple areas to sit back and enjoy the gorgeous lake view. The outdoor space was equally impressive - we enjoyed having a catch in the backyard and relaxing on the dock. Nadia is a wonderful host that goes out of her way to make sure her guests have everything they need and she promptly responded to any of our inquiries. I would not hesitate to book again.
