We have rented family vacations many times before and this wonderful lakeside home was by far the best. The property is everything it says and more. The hosts are wonderful to deal with ,accommodating and accessible. We are already making plans to return.

Exceptional Stay
We cannot say enough about our fabulous stay at The Gottage!
The property offered everything we needed for an outstanding week. There were 9 of us in in total, including 2 toddlers. Satisfying 3 generations is never an easy task so we were very pleased to discover how well-equipped the cottage was and how much thought had gone into the lay-out and amenities.
Even the weather cooperated; it was warm and sunny throughout the week which made swimming and kayaking all the more enjoyable. We were also pleased that the dock could easily accommodate the pontoon boat which we had rented from the local marina;
It was our first experience with VRBO. We were very pleased - Barb and Eric were excellent hosts and a pleasure to deal with throughout.
Many thanks for a great week. Mark, Liza and Family

Gottage is a Goer!
Everything about this property is wonderful; the view from the house onto the lake is stunning. All the beds were extremely comfortable with en-suite bathrooms and the kitchen had everything you could think of! We have made special summer memories swimming, paddle boarding (particularly the children) and enjoying evenings on the deck chatting and lapping up the atmosphere. Thank you!

Quiet and private
The cottage was well suited to our large group. It was very private and quiet. It is well equipped with lots of beds and bathrooms. We loved the kitchen/living room area because everyone could hang out together during meal times. We brought a boat and Sea-Doo. The lake was large enough for water sports but small enough to not be busy.

Great Cottage
This property was perfect for our extended family of 12. It had everything we needed for a great week. We were all impressed by how exceptionally clean the cottage was when we arrived. There is a perfect lake for swimming: the water is deep enough to jump off the dock and the cottage is located on a quiet bay. There is also a large selection of board games and puzzles as well as two large screen TVs that we were able to watch our streaming services on. There were tables both inside and outside that comfortably fit the 12 of us for meals. We really enjoyed ourselves here and would definitely return again.

Incredible Place!! The best Ontario has to offer!
WOW! What a great experience. I have stayed in places all over Ontario and around the world, and while not the least expensive place, this was incredibly good value! Exceptional log house, beautifully appointed (it is obvious they used an interior decorator to furnish the place). The entire house was spotless, clean, impeccable! The 6 bathrooms were all finished in Italian ceramic tiles with glass showers beautifully installed.
All rooms were very specious surrounded by natural wood and the bedrooms included all linens, towels and bedding which was a nice touch. Great attention to detail like freshly sharpened kitchen caring knives, two automatic dishwashers so we never ran out of clean glasses (imported French ceramics) puzzles and dozens of board games for those rainy days. We had such a great experience with my wife all our children plus their friends with lots of space to spare. It is hard to make everyone happy when you have a large age difference, but the cottage struck a perfect balance – we were even able to work remotely for a few days with the internet without any issue.
The property is extremely quiet and private with a massive 600 foot waterfront and a huge acreage for exploring.
We will definitely be back. The place is a bargain compared with smaller less well appointed cottages in Haliburton. This place is a find!

Beautiful, family friendly cottage in gorgeous Haliburton
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2-week family vacation at this spacious, new cottage. Beautiful, open-concept kitchen-dining-living area with an additional 2 seating areas on the lower and upper floors provided lots of space for a larger group to hang out inside the cottage. Located on a private 90 acres with an expansive waterfront, we enjoyed our watersports on the lake and sitting on the dock. If you are looking for a relaxing getaway with all of the amenities, this is the perfect spot. The cottage owners, Barb and Eric, were friendly, helpful and organized. We look forward to returning.

Amazing place, bathrooms not finished
This was a remarkable place for a multi-generational family retreat. Very clean. We only wish that the owner told us ahead of check-in day that 2 of the ensuite bathrooms weren’t finished. One only had a toilet (no sink) and the other didn’t have a shower. It wasn’t a big deal in the end and there were plenty of other bathrooms and a shower on each floor but it was a disconnect with our expectations. Check-in was an hour long tour with the owner (promised as 15 minutes) going over a 4 page checklist including how to use the fridge and microwave. We would have preferred a self-serve set of instructions for reference.

Exceptional property
My large extended family has been renting cottages for over a decade and this was by far our favourite property. The cottage is beautiful with plenty of room for a family of 14. The bedrooms are all large, beds very comfortable, kitchen extremely well equipped with plenty of cupboard and counter space and the great room is lovely with exceptional views of the lake. The dock is large and the water is clear and ideal for swimming. Lots of games and water toys made for a very fun week! We were sad to leave but look forward to next summer on Haliburton Lake. Thank you, Eric and Barb, for making this such a wonderful experience for all of us.
