What a magical cabin! The attention to detail created a serene and lovely experience. The pictures don’t do it justice. It was clean, exceptionally well appointed and we lacked for nothing. The beds were super comfy and I had a wonderful soak in the soaker tub. Haliburton is several minutes away and a really fun town to explore. Would highly recommend!

Perfect little cottage for 2 couples, easy proximity to Haliburton School of the Arts. The property was just as advertised and questions to the owner were answered quickly. Very clean and comfortable.

Lovely Cottage in a Great Location
This is an absolutely beautiful two-story cottage with everything you need for a short or long-term stay. Nestled into the woods but close to the area's attractions, trails and the town of Haliburton - it's a peaceful break from the hustle and bustle of the city. The cottage itself is tastefully decorated, with comfortable beds, a full kitchen with all the necessary utensils, a washer and dryer, barbeque and beautiful views into the forest. All in all, I would highly recommend and hope to return if in the area again.
