Holiday houses in Central Frontenac

We had a wonderful time at the Bunkie. Julie, Patrick, and Max are lovely and warm hosts who are passionate about protecting the Mother Nature and wildlife. We loved the stories about how they built their connections with the wildlife there. The Bunkie is cozy and the perfect size for couples or small families. The kitchen has all the essential items, and the washroom is super clean with a 180-degree view of the private lake. We enjoyed canoeing, kayaking, and hiking on the private trail, and the view of the fall colors from Kinder Camp is truly stunning. My 9-year-old son had an amazing time with Max! Thank you, Julie, Patrick, and Max, for sharing such a lovely place; we will be back in the summer.

Very cozy cabin. Has everything you could need, all what you have to bring is your clothings. We even had the chance to taste their homemade maple syrup! Close enough to Bancroft but still tranquil, nobody can access the cabin but you. We saw people stopping by on the otherside of the lake but it feels OK and not invading, it is far enough to not care. Wildlife was abundant. We did not have much mosquitoes or annoying bugs outside and literally none inside. We went there as a couple with a dog and, once used to the space the cabin offers, did not feel squeezed, although it is not huge. Hosts were very kind and responsive. If you like small, serene and cozy places, this is a must try.

The place was perfect for my family of 8 and our two dogs! Unfortunately rained the whole weekend but the cottage is big enough that we were able to enjoy our time inside playing games and sitting around the dining table! The view is spectacular and we were still able to do some fishing off the dock in the rainy weather! Definitely will be returning when it’s nicer weather to enjoy the fire pit and outdoor areas!

A bit of a drive but well worth the peace and quiet of this beautiful cabin in the woods! My friends and I spent our weekend kayaking, puzzling, and BBQing. Mike was so responsive and everything was very smooth. Would definitely come back!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at the geo dome in Yarker! The location right on the lake offered breathtaking views that made our getaway truly unforgettable. The dome was spotless and beautifully maintained, providing all the comforts we needed for a relaxing retreat. Our host was incredibly kind and responsive, making the entire experience seamless and welcoming. We especially appreciated the thoughtful personal welcome card she left for us—it was such a lovely touch. We enjoyed a cozy evening by the bonfire and had a fantastic time paddling around the lake in the canoe. Everything about this stay exceeded our expectations, and we can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking to escape into nature with comfort and charm!! Thank you Andrey :)

Kate's place is quite lovely and provides an opportunity to be a part of Glen Tay Valley history. The Garden's are beautiful and sitting in the summer house is a treat. Great place for reading a book with a glass of wine in hand. Our dog loves it there too as he can watch the bird life by the Tay river. Kate's digs are a great spot for resting in between adventures in the Perth area. Absolutely charming. It was our third time back.

Great place to stay, the cabin is cozy and clean, we can still smell the pine wood that is the building material of the cabin. We came on the thanksgiving long weekend, this year it was very cold, fortunately we brought our winter jackets and sleeping bags. The host is very nice, you can ask for more comforts if you don’t have your own, otherwise it is too cold to sleep. We didn’t bring drinking water, but a general store is 3 minutes driving away. The fall scene was spectacular, the lake is peaceful, the host and her son were friendly and responsive. We may come again in summer when it is warmer.

Here's a condensed version under 1000 characters: "We've rented many cottages, and this one is by far the cleanest. The waterfront is beautiful, with a well-kept fire pit and a peaceful lake that felt private during the week. The cottage was thoughtfully stocked with everything from soap and coffee to all the necessary appliances. The internet was fast, and the heat pump kept us warm on cooler nights. We kayaked and canoed around the lake several times, enjoying the wildlife—turtles, herons, ducks, loons, and frogs. The fire pit was perfectly placed for sunset views, with plenty of kindling and wood. The BBQ worked great, and Verona offered everything we needed, including good food at Muddy Waters Restaurant and treats at a local bakery and Kawartha ice cream shop. The fall colors were stunning throughout our stay. Highly recommend this cottage for a peaceful, well-equipped getaway!"
