Beachfront holiday rental in Hastings County

I had the pleasure of spending a wonderful week at the cottage with my 2 boys. The cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable. The outdoor spaces were beautuful and the kids and I spent a lot of time on the swings and in the hammock. The lake was perfect for swimming (the kids especially loved the big floating mat) and we enjoyed exploring the lake in the canoe as well! The kids have been asking to go back ever since!

My partner and I had a grand time at Mackenzie’s. The weekend was rainy and when the sun came out on our last day, Mackenzie graciously offered a late check out which we appreciated so much. The place was cozy, clean and matches the pictures. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed to cook. The view was priceless, we were right on the lake and had some meals and drinks on the deck overlooking the water. It was a very lovely weekend, the only negative thing was it had to end and we had to leave! Will definitely be back again. Thank you again, Mackenzie, for opening your place to us!

Our stay was wonderful, the property is beautifully located on the lake with amazing views. The property itself was very clean, with all the necessary amenities and more. It is a very cozy cottage where we felt at home during our visit. We would definitely recommend this location for anyone looking for a serene getaway.

The cottage was nice, clean and quiet, easy to find and close enough to town (Lakefield) to secure any items we forgot, and a Tim's for those who can't go without. The waterway was quiet out to the larger lake area, easy enough to paddleboard or row out to. Plenty of fish off the dock if that is your go to. Not sure if it was just the season, but no mosquito bites at all, and with no bug spray on.. maybe we got lucky. Sean was easy and pleasant to communicate with, no issues at all during our stay.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Patti and Dennis’s place! The location is stunning- right next to the lake with great views. Patti and Dennis were incredibly kind and welcoming hosts. We stayed with our 5 month old puppy, and they were so accommodating about it. We arrived earlier than the planned check-in time as our travel time was less than what we predicted. It meant a lot to us as first time pet travellers that we could check-in early. The home was cozy and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We had to leave the place early unfortunately due to work call and couldn’t enjoy kayak or paddling that they offered. Highly recommend this gem of a stay to anyone looking for peace, beauty and genuinely lovely hosts!

My partner and our dog spent a long weekend at Peter's cabin in the woods in mid-June, and it was perfect! Very private but only a 10 minute drive into Bancroft which had everything we could possibly have needed. Beautiful space (indoor and out) with everything we could have possibly needed. It's a perfect location for a weekend getaway! There was a booklet with clear instruction on the wood-burning fire, generator and battery, and the water situation, as well as a map of the property. We tried getting to 'beach 2' but there wasn't a clear path and couldn't find it, but the main beach was a 5 minute walk away and was beautiful, Completely private, sandy, and with clear water that was great to swim/float around in. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quiet weekend getaway, and will almost definitely come back. Just make sure you keep the bug spray nearby!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lorie's cottage! The cottage was incredibly clean and well-stocked with everything we needed and more. Despite the first two days being cold and rainy, we had a fantastic time indoors, spending quality time with our kids playing board games and doing puzzles. Once the weather improved, we took full advantage of the lake. The water was warm and perfect for swimming, and we loved having access to kayaks, a pedal boat, and paddle boards. It's the ideal place for a peaceful escape, and we would highly recommend Lorie's cottage to anyone looking for a quiet retreat.

We absolutely fell in love with Ken’s cottage on Stoney Lake. The cottage was cozy and clean and well cared for. We love that the cottage opens right onto a dock. It feels like you’re on a houseboat! Despite there being cottages nearby it was so quiet and we also loved using the canoe he provided to explore the lake. Our favourite part by far was the private Nordic spa. It was so relaxing and peaceful to have this private space to relax in a stunning natural setting. The neighbours we met were very warm and we also love the nearby communities. It’s close to Lakefield for ammenities and small town charm. We love the care that Ken has put into this unique experience and we plan on coming back twice a year to recharge and reconnect with nature and ourselves. We will also be referring family and friends. Thanks Ken for letting us use your little slice of paradise.

Probably the best Airbnb experience we had. Scott made us feel very welcomed since the first text message. He is also generous host, responsive and communicative. Kitchen is fully equipped. House is very cleaned and the set up is very efficient. Highly recommended!

We had such a good time! The pictures didn’t do the place justice, we were pleasantly surprised when we got to the cottage.

This was a fun, peaceful trailer park resort with amazing amenities and gorgeous surroundings. While the trailer homes were close to each other, the fact that it was a quiet family environment, and that our spot was positioned towards the woods and had just the right window dressings, meant that we still had all the privacy we wanted. We would definitely consider coming back again. Jacqueline's place was a great place to rest up after a fun day.

Our family cannot recommend this place more ; it will always hold such a special place in our heart. The cottage and surroundings were incredible - clean, spacious, fully equipped. The neighborhood offers so many activities close by, perfect for all ages. Jennifer is an incredible host and will make sure you have all the info you need to take advantage of your stay (and Sandbanks). we will definitely be coming back ✨

Very pleasant stay, perfect for a big family. It accommodate us very well. We enjoyed this cottage!

It was a great stay and very accommodating. Kids enjoyed the pool table and foosball indoors as well as the pool and lake outside. The kitchen and view of the lake was amazing. Lots of fishing was done from the docks and petal boat and some paddling from the kayak and paddle board (we brought this).

My family had a great time at the resort. Roberto was very helpful and responsive to any questions we had. The home was clean and comfortable and exactly as pictured. It was. Perfect spot for kids as there is tons to do on the resort grounds and you are 15 minutes from almost all major attractions. The pool was fantastic for kids with a very large shallow end, towel service, life jackets etc. will definitely return next time we are in PEC.

We had a great time staying in Kevin’s home. He is extremely kind and helpful! We felt right at home and very comfortable. We caught a couple of fish right off his dock! Beautiful home and really beautiful scenery. We will definitely come back!!

Great location… we had a chance to view the northern lights and the milky way. The place even offered a canoe, paddle boat and kayaks. Plenty of firewood was available as well. We had the perfect long weekend getaway.

We had a wonderful stay at RAP Cottage. It was a spacious, well kept property with great amenities and clear instructions. There were no unexpected issues or surprises! Our kids had an amazing time on the lake and enjoyed the karaoke machine. The fire pit was a hit as well. Will definitely visit again.

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Nice and clean place, equipped with everything you may need. Open concept is very comfortable with little kids. Zara is a great host, very responsive and caring. We would recommend this cottage and will definitely come back.

Shannon did an excellent job communicating with us and provided us with picture instructions on how to use the hottub, firepit and remotes for the heat and fireplace. She was aware we were celebrating my fiancé's birthday and was so sweet to leave him a birthday card and chocolates. We were also pleasantly surprised to see she had a snack basket, bottled water, eggs, bagels and food in the cuoboards that we could help ourselves to at no extra cost. She was extremely welcoming and allowed us to take our time checking out. We loved our stay at her beautiful home and highly recommend this place.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Lots of private space and gorgeous views. The water was nice and Sandy, not weedy or rocky - perfect. Kim always responded super quickly and made all the instructions super clear. We were celebrating a birthday and they left some bday cupcakes and a sweet note along with it - lovely touch. Would recommend 10/10

Nice winter getaway! Close to the town and very peaceful. We enjoyed this cottage very much - it was exactly what we needed!

Great place to stay! Loved the cottage and the waterfront

Our wknd away at this peaceful and very private oasis was just what the doctor ordered! We had the greatest time there. It was so beautiful and quiet that I'd often forget where in the world we were. It had everything we needed and more. Camilla was an excellent host and was always quick to reply if I had a question. I'd definitely recommend this little gem to anyone looking to go off the grid for a few days to recharge and enjoy everything nature has to offer!
