Beautiful lakefront cottage

We had a very pleasant stay at Dave’s cottage over the weekend (July 11-14). This is our second stay here over the past couple of years. The sunsets were spectacular and the property was just as described in the ad. I loved the “old school” cottage vibes, it reminds me of the cottage I grew up going to visit. My 3 and a half year old son loved sleeping in the bunk beds and my husband and I were quite comfortable in one of the many bedrooms. The views of lake scugog are gorgeous and we would love to come and visit again sometime in the near future.Thanks so much for a wonderful relaxing weekend spent with our little family.

Highly recommend

Beautiful sunset views, shallow water by dock but nice to swim. Kayak and boat rentals nearby and easy to rent added to our trip touring around the lake. Fire pit and BBQ and kitchen well equipped. Listing description is accurate. Our small poodles and teenage sons enjoyed it. Hosts were amazing - they shipped my makeup bag that I left behind to me. Thanks again will go back!

Cottage week

Great rustic cottage that has all your basic essentials in it. The property area is big and spacious with lots of green space. It's close by to local stores and all conviences one might need. The lake isn't deep at all so keep that in mind. We made a reservation for 8 but only 3 out of 4 bedrooms had linens, and there weren't enough utensils for 8 people. Besides that it's well organized, and owners are pleasant and easy to interact with. They also supply firewood.

Family Cottage

Myself and my immediate extended family were looking for a cottage where 7 adults and 2 kids could all be together. This cottage was great for flexible start and end dates, walk out sand beach for the kids, and bring dog friendly. The owners were great to communicate with ! Would recommend bringing fans as it is an older home and does warm up throughout the day, but the AC unit works great. The town itself is very kid friendly with 2 parks and a beach all within a 1km radius. A nice treat was also that it faces west and you always get a beautiful sunset over the lake. Overall will definitely be coming back ! Thanks so much!

Quiet and enjoyable getaway!

The cottage has an amazing view of the lake and offers tranquility and peace. We were able to enjoy the view not only from outside the cottage but also from the living room and one of the bedrooms. The host has been very quick to respond and was very helpful. As for the inside we need to remember that this is an old school cottage and not a five star hotel! However it had the essentials we needed for our stay.

Wonderful Place To Stay

Cottage was wonderful. 4 bedrooms which were more than accommodating . Fenced in deck which allowed for our dog and small children to run around. The lake was gorgeous and perfect for our inflatable raft. Fishing was perfect for the kids as there are a ton of smaller fish that hover the dock allowing for an easy catch for the kiddos. Definitely looking forward to staying again.

Great getaway and great memories

We stayed at this gem (3 families) as our boys were in a Lacrosse tournament. We really enjoyed our stay and our boys did a lot of fishing. It was perfect and we will definitly go back. The owner was prompt at responding to our questions and we saved $400 per family by staying here as opposed to staying at an overpriced hotel. The boys created memories and the place had everything that we needed. Thank You!

A nice rustic cottage

It’s a super cute property with a lovely lake view, well equipped kitchen, and convenient location. The hosts were very communicative. However, it is truly rustic. There’s very little hot water, and we spotted mouse droppings inside at a couple points. The waterfront is also fairly murky and not great for swimming. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but be prepared for more of a rustic cabin experience.

Perfect rustic cottage getaway

My family (myself, husband and 18 month old and dog) stayed at Dave and Karen’s cottage in July 2023. It was just as advertised. Great communication with the host, easy check in and really enjoyed the cottage and property for the weekend. We lucked out and got the most vibrant sunset and though it rained a little, we had some nice weather too. The shallow water was perfect for my son. We would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks again Dave and Karen!

Great Place to Stay

Dave was very communicative, welcoming and friendly. The deck off the back had a beautiful view. We spent little to no time inside even sitting out under the umbrella during the little rain we had. Can walk/swim out forever before it gets deep enough to be over your head, beach area was lovely. Cottage was clean, with a new fridge and everything needed to cook & BBQ. Even a lovely fire pit with wood supplied. Highly recommend for family and/or a girls weekend.

Awesome for families

Fantastic hosts and awesome space for families. The water is shallow (knee deep at the end of the dock, don’t dive!) and perfect for kiddos to play in. The deck is awesome for activities and for group meals, and the view is magnificent at any time of the day. The cottage is well stocked with the basics: the two double rooms and bunk room are great; the extra room is great if you bring an air mattress. Guests are required to bring their own linens and towels which is clearly communicated by the hosts ahead of time. The AC unit is a nice perk! Highly recommend Old School Cottage!
