Holiday rentals with a kayak in Hastings Highlands

This was without a doubt the cleanest Airbnb I’ve ever been in! It was such a beautiful space. The view was unmatched and there was lots of room for all of us! We definitely plan on going back during summer months. May long weekend this year wasn’t warm and we would have loved to enjoy sitting out on that dock. Will definitely be returning!

Nuchanart and Robert were absolutely wonderful hosts. Although our stay was hit by extreme rains, winds, and a full day power outage, both hosts were actively communicating with us and helpful. Numerous resources were provided to help mitigate the issues due to the once in a century storm. Aside from the issues due to the weather, which were resolved quickly and with great respect; the AirBNB was stunning and perfect. Everything was stocked, immaculate, and thoughtful. Everyone had an absolute blast with the water sports, ping pong table, fire-pit, etc. We felt at home and absolutely would come for another stay at this property.

Tracey & Rodney were great hosts only matched by their charming home and surroundings! I would rate 6 stars if I could - highly recommended. Useful details for others: - Plenty of free street parking - Well stocked grocery across the street - West facing water and sunset view - Minimal street noise - Fast, reliable internet

The house is really beautiful. You wake up every morning in the middle of pure nature. It’s a unique place. Lots of fun things included in the house. We had everything we needed and more. Would definitely recommend if you wanna spend a family vacation. It’s the perfect place to spend a lot of time in.

Absolutely lovely spot! We had such a relaxing time here. There was lots to do; kayaking, fishing off the dock, board games, Roku and more. Such a cozy vibe- we are definitely adding it to our list for future getaways. Kees was a great host; very easy to follow instructions and had everything we needed. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic stay at this cottage! The place was beautiful, the host was very responsive and there were a lot of little touches that really showd care in the home. We would definitely book again!

Kelly's place was absolutely gorgeous. A cozy cottage in the lap of nature; you're surrounded by natural beauty. Lush green fields, a gushing river and plenty of activities, it's the perfect place to unwind, relax and have a great time. Listening to the sound of the river was absolutely the highlight of our trip and the weather was just perfect for a quick swim. Would definitely go back! Beautiful and easy to reach location and Kelly was super helpful throughout our stay.

This place was a great size for our group of 10 and had a very spacious and comfortable main room where we could all gather to eat, play games and relax. The sauna is a nice feature as well. The kitchen was very well equipped. Kersti and her co-hosts were very responsive, accomodating and helpful.

Wait.. there is no option for 6 stars!?! Wow, where to begin!?! From check-in to check-out, our group had a fantastic time. Our host was super friendly and easy to connect with at all times. Our group had 8; 6 adults, a teen & a child. Everyone was entertained at all times from the karaoke machine, the games, the hot tub, the firepit, the kayaks & canoes, the swimming, and the stairway to haven, which was truly breathtaking taking!!! The town of Halliburton was a short 10 minutes away where we enjoyed some shopping, lunch & coffee. We were celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary; 78 & 73 years young and they rocked that staircase several times! We frequent Air B N Bs often and this is by far my new favourite. There is already talk of a return visit in the future. Highland Bliss is gourgeous, loaded with all the amenities, is spotless, super comfortable and my family is so thankful to Marcia for allowing us to visit her beautiful space and create lasting memories!

We had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was communicative and made check-in super easy. The neighbourhood was quiet, and we felt right at home during our visit. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Thank you for an excellent weekend! My friends and I stayed at Foad’s cottage and it was beautiful! We enjoyed the hot tub and game room very much. Foad was always very quick to respond and the description of the property was very accurate. I recommend Foad’s cottage to all! Thanks again!

The place itself was very nice and clean and the location was gorgeous, we had an absolutely amazing time.

Our stay at Chris' cottage was fantastic. The place was exactly as advertised, super clean with a great dock for fishing and lots of outdoor activities for our busy kids. Check in and check out were easy and the host was very responsive and helpful.

Our group had a wonderful stay at the cottage! Cassidy was very communicative and the amenities were top notch - we enjoyed the lakefront view, kayak, sauna and hot tub. Fresh towels and laundry within the cottage made everything super convenient. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

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!!

This was our fourth stay and it felt like home. Always love coming back and even though the weather wasn’t great, there was plenty to do with the sauna, records, VHS tapes and games.

We loved our stay here! The house was spotless and had everything we could’ve needed and more. The dock and watercrafts were our favourite daytime spot, and the dining table was perfect for groups games in the evenings. We didn’t get to use the fire pits but there were two of them! We’ll definitely be back!

Great place to stay! Very peaceful, felt very remote and isolated but was only 10 mins from town.

My family and I stayed at Christie’s cottage for Victoria Day long weekend. The first thing I noticed was that the pictures on the listing really didn’t do the place justice!! It was just what I wanted, the cottage feel but still comfortable like my own home. Christie had the place in pristine condition and there was more than enough sleeping, lounging and relaxing areas for everyone who joined us. This cottage is beautiful, it overlooks the lake & had everything we needed to start our family fun! The cottage itself, beautiful overall but Christie is really was the cherry on top. She was so accommodating & helpful (even stopped by to help us get the leafs game up and running). Thank you for sharing your property with us & just know you haven’t seen the last of us 😊 we’ll probably take at least two or three more trips here before the summers through!!! Don’t look any further this is the spot you should go to!!!

My husband and I stayed at this beautiful cottage to celebrate our anniversary. We live about an hour and a half drive from this place and it was very easy to find. Although our stay was short, it was so special. The beach is shared with other cottages but it was not being used by others during our stay which was nice. There’s a few fire pits for use too on the beach with wood provided by the host which was so lovely. We didn’t swim bc it was too cold but there were also a ton of water toys to use such as kayaks and paddle boards. The cottage itself is completely private and so so so charming. The place was so clean and had a ton of amenities you really don’t have to bring anything other than your own food. My husband and I agreed we must return in the future!!!

This is the perfect place to get away from it all. The host is super friendly and the cabin is so very comfortable. We had a great time with our dog out in the canoe for an afternoon. We would absolutely return.

We had a great time here celebrating my son's 6th birthday and Father's Day. Not many places can boast a great little private beach plus a dock, and the fishing off the beach was great. We also saw lots of turtles, including some babies, which were adorable. The beds are super comfortable, as is the living room. We loved having use of the paddle boat to see more of the natural beauty of the lake. Great spot!

Great rustic place to unwind and enjoy the outdoors. Reminded me of my childhood family cottage. It was private and had everything one needs in a semi offgrid location. Bill was prompt, accommodating and friendly. Bring more firewood than you'll think you'll need! Thanks again, Bill!

I highly recommend the Lake House in Dorset/Raven Shores. This cottage was perfectly situated and close to scenic attractions and many trails. The property was picturesque morning, noon, and night. The perfect spot with easy access to the lake. Their customer service and attention to detail is second to none, exceeding my expectations every time. The hosts were readily available and responded quickly. The cottage was warm and Cozy "just like home." It was equipped with everything a family would need and more. We would stay again.
